Welcome to the Redesigned Web Site for CSTCA

Dec 10th, 2009

The Cool Spring Terrace Civic Association (CSTCA) Web site has a new look and a new URL. Information that introduced the site at the old URL is now on the About page and is repeated here was an introduction to the new site. On the About page, you will also find a list of the images used in the rotating banner in the Photo Credits and legal stuff about the site.

A full list of other pages linked to from the About page and other pages in the site is in the Sidebar under the heading “CSTCA Pages”. The Sidebar also includes links to sites in various categories, Twitter RSS feeds, our Flickr photo album with selected Flickr groups, H1N1 flu watch widgets in English and Spanish, an event calendar, and more. Some items in the Sidbar are not yet filled out but will be when posts are created and assigned to categories, and tags are added. More can be added as we go along.

I hope you enjoy the new design and please use the Contact Us form to send in suggestions for the site. If you’d like to get an e-mail message when a new item is posted to the blog, fill in your e-mail address in the “Subscribe to Notices About Posts” area of the Sidebar. (Some of you received a message about this post; you were presubscribed.)
