    Ground Control to HRA - re your homepage?

    Come on HRA, your homepage is supposed to be promoting our industry

    The 3 featured Video Highlights at the bottom of the page have been there for weeks and weeks and weeks

    I had feedback from HRA that they have had staff cutbacks (But expect improvements soon)
    BUT NO EXCUSE
    Someone has to look at the HRA homepage every morning - sheez if I can check the forum as a volunteer surely some paid employee can check HRA's homepage
    Eg Today we have as one of their 3 rotating stories at the top of the page "Kilmore meeting tonight will go ahead" even a change to "Kilmore Meeting Last Night went ahead" would be something (and of course we still have the months old same 3 Video Highlights at the bottom of the page)
    Wake Up - you represent our industry

    They should try to recruit a few volunteers to help run the web site. And bring the Trading Ring back.
    Don't die wondering !

    I can't believe it! Sometime today Paul Kahlefeld's weathered mug disappeared from the bottom of the home page.

    The two other stale videos are hanging in there though.

    It is a start Trev. You wouldn't think it would be hard to replace the other two with whatever - nostalgia race videos or a in depth driver/trainer interview .....

    You mean different stories Kev, I'm getting they will be very stale before they get replaced.

    I have another thing for HRA to fix.
    Isn't it time to do away with people needing to log in to get stallion details (and be registered first)
    You know when you do a Horse Search and want to click on Progeny for a Sire
    We don't have to do it for the dam so lets streamline this process too

    Another thing to fix on the homepage
    The 3 featured stories (rotating pics) should only require a left click to open (not a right click and choose open in new window)
