Victoria Guide changes

Aside from doing some much needed updates and tweaks to my Unofficial Guide to Victoria, I have also decided to bring in some back-up. Starting this month, expect to see blog posts and reviews from a couple of new contributors.

It was a hard decision for me to make. My guide has been just that, mine, for over a decade and it was really hard for me to hand over a spare key but it was clear I needed help keeping the site fresh and up to date. I'm going to see how it goes for a while and you are welcome (and encouraged!) to watch it grow, too. Fingers crossed...

Comment Contest!

My Unofficial Guide to Victoria has been through several facelifts in the eleven years (!) that it has been online, and it's time for another. This time though, I am thinking more along the lines of liposuction (to remove the bulk) and a whole new wardrobe.

This is where you come in.... I have my own thoughts about what needs to be trimmed and what needs to be highlighted, but I want to know what you think.

Have a look around the site -- start with the site map if you prefer -- and then let me know: What are the strengths and the weaknesses? What's missing? What's your favourite page? Least favourite? What would you change about the layout? The colours? Nothing is off limits, have at it in the comments!

To encourage your comments, I am holding a contest! I will do a random draw for a prize -- to enter, leave a constructive comment about Cheryl's Unofficial Guide to Victoria by 11:59 p.m. (Pacific Time) Sunday June 15th. The winner will get a 5x7 print of a Victoria landmark(winner's choice from my photos) suitable for framing.
