Welcome to the new front page of Front Office Football Central. We have a lot in store for you. I think. Uh, maybe. Who knows.

Actually, the redesign of the front page was done by Feeble Weeble Designs. It's nothing fantastic, but it'll work. There's still all the old information to the links on each of the FOF games and that's going to be the vast majority of our content. But since we act as a clearinghouse of sorts for other text-based sims, we've decided to devote just a wee bit of space to those other sims. Who gets mentioned? Well, it's at our discretion and they'll tend to be the ones most demanded by our users. I don't want anyone to feel left out, but those are the rules.

A couple of the weekly features we're tossing around is the Value of the Week. This was an old Gone Gold feature. Since they're no longer there, we can pick up the slack. Also, we'd like to have a weekly article or two. If you want to write for FOFC, just hit the "Contact Us" button over there and let us know. Finally, we may put a post on the front page as "Post of the Week". We can promise that you won't find politics on the front page. Unless it's something extremely funny.

I hope that we'll have enough going on that you'll actually come to the front page. We won't be everything to everyone, but we hope to be occasionally entertaining.

Thanks for stopping in. Kick your feet back, relax and smoke 'em if you got 'em.

Holy mackerel, looks great!

Kudos for spotting this Jeebs! Maybe it'll give us a good reason to use that page now...

Y'all didn't think I purchased a domain name for nothin', did you? ;)

[JeeberD]

So is Blacky a mod again?

Kudos for spotting this Jeebs! Maybe it'll give us a good reason to use that page now...Of course, Jeebs spotted it before I could announce it...before the upload was finished, even. Not only is he a posting machine, he's a snoop as well. ;)

:p

Hey, I had gone elsewhere and was just trying to get back to FOFC. My homepage is the front page here, so it was pretty obvious that something was going on...

[Ben E Lou]

So is Blacky a mod again?No. He got in touch with me and asked how he coudl help out, and I asked him about a front page redesign, which he did. He's also going to be a "feature writer," I guess you'd call it.

Hey, I had gone elsewhereAdultress.

There's a front page?

(I know! I know! It's a bad joke, it's an old joke, but someone has to say it!)

Those are some awesome stadium shots under the Archives section.

[JeeberD]

Adultress.

I need to go to the UTEP board every once in a while since none of you elitists here will talk UTEP sports with me...
:D

Suggestion: do something with the TITLE tag, having "FOFC.htm" in the browser isn't looking that hot.

[TLK]

nice....

You expect more than the standard "UTEP sucks" replies?
