While the visual presentation of the site has undergone some changes, the functionality and services offered on the site are unchanged. In order to assist with navigation, the following outline will help you understand the major differences:

Home Page
The home page has the most significant change in terms of appearance. However, while the page looks different, the same functionality and services are provided. The main variations include:
· Completely new visual experience (new color schemes, backgrounds, banner images, layout & Image Gallery)
· Main Menu items have changed (see next point)
· Client Login – Contacts – Home appears on the main menu
· Latest News shows 4 items with a completely new system for viewing latest news and archived news
· Greyhound Central is unchanged

Latest News
The latest news section is completely new and has undergone the most significant change. The ability to see 4 latest news items on the home page, then navigate to the full story, then subsequently look up archived news stories from a dedicated module is an improved services and aligns with the latest news module used in all the club websites.

Main Menu
The main menu items and order have changed quite a bit, but include all features of the site within this menu. The same menu will appear on all pages of the site and we anticipate the menu is self explanatory in terms of where to find respective services. The major changes are:
· Combining of all participant based information into a menu item called ‘Participants’ (see next section)
· Including Client Login, Contacts & Home buttons onto the Main Menu

Participants
The participants menu consolidates all existing services associated with participant services, including Owners, Trainers, Breeders, Application forms, Attendants, Catchers, Fees, etc.

Racing
The Racing menu includes all things Racing, including all of the Greyhound Central Services from the home page, Calendars and a NEW section called Stewards. This Stewards section will now include steward appeals and inquiry details.

The redevelopment of the GRV website has been driven out of necessity to modify and standardise the technical back-end, rather than to add or remove functions or services. Therefore, most of the content and functionality of the site is unchanged. This new GRV website, all Victorian Club websites and the GAP website will now look and feel similar in design. This should make navigation and finding your information about the Victorian Greyhound Industry quite easy.
