New Books
|
|
These beautiful books are great for anyone who
wants to know more about the history, the buildings, the icons,
the people, behind the places you visit in Queensland. Most places
featured (in full colour and original B&W photographs),
represent the heritage of ordinary people - shopkeepers, shearers,
railway workers, station hands, miners and teamsters and these
books are designed to help you appreciate the rural history of
places you visit on your travels.
The 3 book series is divided into regions as
follows: |
|

New
Trek note Painted
Desert (Coober Pedy - Oodnadatta) 
Aptly
named, the Painted
Desert is a picturesque area and is often overlooked by travellers
moving between Oddnadatta and Coober Pedy. It's not a difficult trip,
but is a great alternative to get off the main track when touring
through this part of South Australia's Desert region.
New
for Members - Photo Gallery We
have just added a very useful NEW feature for Members only, being the
addition of a Photo Gallery. How
it works, is that Members may now upload pictures into
their My Profile page, with a maximum of 6 stored and viewable at any
one time. (David's profile shows 4 out of a possible 6 have been
loaded). The
beauty of this feature is that now you don't have to stretch the
capabilities of the Rig Pic facility, to be able to show other pics to
viewers on ExplorOz. Essentially,
each Member now has their very own web-space for their photo gallery. (David
is still developing additional features to the gallery, which we'll
launch in the next newsletter)
Improved
Members My Profile Page To
make better use of the My Profile area for Members, we have added some nice new features:
-
revamped
the page to include your Photo Gallery
-
added
the
option to enable your email address and/or webaddress to be shown as a hyperlink
(see note below)
-
the
Forum footer for a Member has been altered to now point directly to
the Members Profile page, rather than directly to Member Message
-
Member
Messages are now sent from the Member's Profile page (Member -
Member only). (eg.
See ExplorOz Team - David's Profile)
NOTE:
Web email spiders & crawlers may process your rig/profile page and
collect your email and web details. If you do not want this to happen
then do not enable these options. Instead, we provide a secure method of
sharing information via Member Msg. The choice is yours.
