- Updated the homepage slider, adding new slides and renewing old ones.
- Added separate The Smiler navigation menu. From this point forward the SW7 minisite is now closed. But fear not! We've merged all the content into the main TowersStreet site, and shall continue to bring you all the latest news and updates from the ride there. All URLs remain unchanged, and shall continue to redirect you to the correct content.
- Minor update to the homepage by enclosing Latest Forum Posts in a box to fit in with the recently refreshed news layout.

As part of a refresh ready for our first year birthday, we're making some small changes to the look and feel of TowersStreet over the coming months.
Today we've launched our new design menu that utilises some nice functions of the menu system we use (UberMenu!) and re-profiled the space used at the top of screen to try and make it a little easier to navigate around the site.
If you're viewing us on a desktop or laptop computer, you'll notice that the menu follows you around the site on each and every page at the top of the screen to give you quick access to everything you need.
If you're viewing us on a mobile, you'll notice the new menu doesn't follow you around (mainly to save the precious screen space mobiles and tablets have!), but we do have some more exciting changes planned for mobiles and tablets soon.
As ever, you can feedback in our progress discussion log, of which there is a new one set up for your use now here:

We're having a tidy up and redesign of our news, news articles and pages.
We're also launching the first parts of our new look homepage also! This work is ongoing and is not yet completed, so please be patient whilst we make some big changes to the coding/operation of the front page to bring these changes.
Thanks all

As you know, we've always used the "Who's Going?" topics to keep track of everyone wanting to attend each of our meets and events.
Well, we promised some time ago that we would develop some new features, one of which was the ability for people to 'self service' themselves in the Who's Going? list.
We've now launched a sort of beta version (aka it might go wrong, hopefully not) to tie in with our new meet pages, so you'll now state your meet attendance on our loverly meetup pages.
Of course the advantages are that you are now totally in control, so you can change your mind as often as you like, or get the latest on who's going and who might need some gentle persuasion as they are just sitting on the maybe fence!
You can RSVP using the new tool here for our latest meet here:

As always, any problems please give us a heads up in Guest Services feedback thread too
