06-21-20
I am finally back to updating the site. I changed hosting services in
the summer of 2019 which caused issues I hadn't forseen. New host does
not support Frontpage extensions, so that screwed the navigation on the
site. So I had to sort that all out before I could really concern
myself with updates. It took me a while to find a solution to the
problem. It is sorted now, and I am in the process of updating all
350(ish) pages of the site with the new code.
It is going to take a while, but I am making progress on that front.
Along the way, I hope to update some of the pages with more / different
content as well as the new code.
So stick with me. I haven't abandoned this site, I've just been trying to improve it.

Well, I think I am about half way through the
site re-do.
I've redone 22 pages, and added 5 index pages.
Hopefully the new index pages will improve the
site navigation.
A lot of the changes to the pages are both with
the layout, and with descriptions and
information. I have a bad habbit of thinking
those reading my pages are familiar with all
aspects of things like Aurora history,
terminology, and the series itself. When in fact,
that is why a lot of people are here in the first
place. So, I'm making a concious effort to try
and label things better and explain things in
more detail.
Also added some more catalog scans, thanks to
Jeff Moore who sent me scans from the 1992 and
2008 Revell catalogs.
