1/2 of Phase I - Good Boating Project

I'm happy to report that we've made our fourth donation to b2evolution. We donated $100, which is 5.0% of our Good Boating, Phase 1 (of 5) payment, which we received last month.

Good Boating is by far our largest project to date, as we're rolling 5 separate websites into a single b2evolution install and using "GoodBoating.net" as the portal into all of the sites. Phase one was to create a "mock-up" page for Good Boating, demonstrating just "how" we were going to provide navigation and promote each of the five underlying sites.

We think we came up with a stunning design and the customer was very happy with the mock up page we made at http://goodboating.astonishme.co.uk.

We are in the midst of Phase II, (which will be to actually integrate an existing b2evolution site into Good Boating and then deploy these two sites). The remaining phases will be site redesigns and integrations for each of the remaining websites.

We actually have $200 to donate, but decided to "spread out the love" a tad, so that we can maximize AM's exposure on the donor list, as the FG only updates this periodically.

Note: FYI - I'm backing out my $50 contribution that I'm no longer getting credit for on b2evolution, as the FG has lumped it in with all the AM! donations. I have $50 in, so I'll back out $25 with this donation and another $25 with the next.
