Website Improvements

Nate Amsden — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 06:38:09 +0000

Greetings National Website Users!

As you may have noticed, the website has a brand new look to it! Not only does it have new looks, but it is getting a new layout too! Pages will better organized and the site will be much more user friendly. The website will be more organized by “AAS”, “SW”, and “Joint” categories. National staff members will each have individual pages where you can find content relating to that position (i.e. Operations, Training, Public Affairs, etc).

A couple of new things to note about the website:
-You can subscribe to posts using an RSS Feed located on the upper right corner of the home page.
-Along the right side there are quick links to “key pages”
-Also on the right side is a list of upcoming suspenses and events.

Many of the pages right now do not have much content on them. Pardon the “dust” while I work to update the site. Also, pages may continue to move around, so bear with me while I improve the website.

Thanks for your understanding!

-AAS C/Lt Col Nate Amsden
National Webmaster

Greetings from NHQ,

Please be sure to check out some new Silver Wings advertisement posters located in the Development Section of the Useful Info part of the website. These posters are formatted in Publisher to allow you to edit them for your specific size and usage, but come standard in a 34 x 44 poster size already. They depict successful alumni and should hopefully help you inspire others on your campus to find out more about Silver Wings.

If you have any questions or any suggestions about upcoming posters, please contact National Staff at swnational [ at ] gmail [ dot ] com

Thank you!
