This page is for announcing updates to the website. We encourage site readers and contributors — those who publish to Indybay — to offer feedback on recent updates and contribute ideas for future improvements in the comments below. While we may not incorporate all suggestions into the website, we promise to read and consider each one.

This is not a comprehensive list of updates. Feel free to add your comments below.



2020/3/10 — New header navigation menus added to allow one-click access from every page on the site to the newswire and calendar publish pages, as well as Topic and Region feature pages. Image size for features increased. Goodbye calendar red links, hello increased consistency with website elements taking on more modular look. Square corners largely abandoned for rounded corners. Old timey red GIF bitmap media icons replaced with cleaner black SVG vector icons.
