Through the affiliation with USAG they got some great access, and had some very unique coverage. Been looking into this for awhile now, but what are some good software apps for website authoring nowadays? When I started, MS FrontPage was widely used, and now the product doesn't even exist.

Also contacted some of their key people directly. They are TRYING, I'll give them that. Many gave Gymnast.com a lot of feedback. It was a good site. Unfortunately the arrangement with USAG went wrong. I have sent quite a bit of feedback to Inside Gymnastics. Also contacted some of their key people directly.

I would not be surprised if financial issues (real or anticipated) from the economy are behind this. When things get tight all the foofoo frills stuff is under the gunsights. Actually I wonder if you all are seeing less people signing up for gym? Hopefully the Olys help for a while, but I bet even if things are up there not as much as they normally would be. companies and people are pulling in their growth ventures.

There are no improvements to the IG site that we can see. Looks like they just screwed up going to new software or a new web host, something competent websites do every day with no issues. Gymnast.com, well, it was OK but with all the video bandwidth and no actual revenue it was bound to fail.
