Could you add a couple charts like moon and sun rise/set times, tides, winds? I really like the new site and was just thinking about other fishing related stuff that would be useful. I have all that available but at different sites.

Those are links not charts, you lose you geek badge for a week.

With small charts you wouldn't have to click to another site. Just an idea, it's a great site the way it is, just trying to contribute. I didn't see the moon cycles there, that is what sparked my thought. I've been trying to time my trips around moonrises and moonsets. It hasn't worked so far....

Dave!!!

You sound like my old manager…

It’s not helpful to be bringing out new ideas, unless we actually know how to go about putting them in place…

I agree, we should put more chart like stuff on the front page to make it more of a one-stop-shop portal with all the info the yak fisherman would need. The problem is – none of us who worked on the new BWE site is a true web developer…

What you see is what we’ve been able to figure out. I’m quite amazed we got it to look as it looks right now. If you know how to do it or know someone who could help us (and is willing to do it) – by all means, let us know. Keep in mind – we don’t pay…

OK, you can expect BWE shirt or hat and a ton of appreciation, but that’s about it.

Wish I could help, my skills are with radar, radios, and other electronics. And making suggestions I can't back up.

The only moon chart available for a this type of software (vBulletin) causes alot of problems loading the home page. We have a moon chart on the SaltwaterBastards.com home page and it is nothing but trouble. Drew looked everywhere for one that worked better but came up with nothing.

On a side note, the new site looks GREAT!! There seems to be traffic and activity now too! Keep up the good work.

Thanks...

But there is a "Current Moon" chart on the front page... ??

It's been there since we rolled the new site - do you guys not see it? On the left, scroll down below sponsors...

Or r you referring to different type of moon chart, the one where you'd see the future moon phases??
