As you can see, we’ve got the decorators in as we’ve commissioned a complete overhaul of the MTI website.
Gone is the javascript that seems to have caused so many problems for visitors and in comes what will hopefully be a user-friendly site (both for you, the reader, and for Jack and Emrys to update). You can comment on each post and we’ll be especially interested in your views on each issue.
Please bear with us while we finish loading the old page’s information (sample articles have been ported across, the layout designs and photographs and the model photographs will follow).
Emrys adds: As you’ll hopefully notice, the colour scheme will change to match the current issue’s cover colour. Neat, huh.
