This site is intended to serve the purpose of helping students of paleoanthropology in the process of research, and to provide a source of information for any layperson who may or may not have access to the requisite background or general information needed to come to a fuller understanding of human evolution. I can be contacted here if you have any questions or comments about the site.<\/p>\n
Finished checking all the files and making minor adjustments to the site as a result of the move. Fixed the reference search so that it uses the correct database queries, and made the results page a tiny bit more user friendly. Started adding references to the database again.<\/p>\n
Fixed the site search function so that all the links you get should work properly and link only to pages in this site. Started reformating many of the pages, to look more professional and to look how I want it to in resolutions other than 800×600.<\/p>\n
Completely took down the old site except for the main page, which now points to the new homepage. Completely moved all the pages and pictures to this site, fixed all the hyperlinks on all pages. As of now, all pages should be working as they did on the other site.<\/p>\n
If you find a page or link is not working, *please* let me know so I can track down the problem. I will be working on all the errors\/suggestions I have been sent over the past few months, fixing minor things on the site. When that is finished I will be starting to add more data and materials.<\/p>\n

Purchased email service, so the contact e-mail has been changed on all the pages. Added a Donations page where someone can donate money or materials to help the development of this site in various ways. Updated the My Books and the Books sections with some more texts. Removed the Paleoanthropology Web Resources webring as it had few members and the webring company has become pop-up happy. The Link section works better anyway. Added moderation to the guestbook, so I will be able to keep the spam advertisements out of the guestbook pre-emptively. Removed the Study Web award since the company is no longer a not-for-profit educational group and it links to their corporate site now.<\/p>\n
Finally finished the hominid page for Kenyanthropus platyops. This is the first hominid page using the new format with the overall site colour scheme and moving photos directly into the descriptions rather than special pages taking up additional space. Next up is Sahelanthropus, and then I will begin updating each hominid page with both new content and the new format. Added books to both books reference section. Fixed a mislabeled photo.<\/p>\n
Added some entries to the General Links and Commercial Links page. Updated the Journals page to fix broken links and add a few new journals. Decided to remove the Universities section, as it is rarely accessed according to my weblogs, once I started working on updating the page it was taking quite a long time, and it doesn’t exactly fit in with the purpose of the site in its present form. I’ll be reviewing its utility over the next few weeks and deciding whether or not to permanently consign it to the dustbin. Added more entries to the My Books and the General Books reference sections, and updated those pages format to the newer look.<\/p>\n
Finally getting around to finishing various pages and updates to the site. There will be one major update over the next month, and then hopefully there will be semi-regular updates from now on. Changed color formats of more pages to the grey\/burgundy theme and fixed some code errors. Created a much nicer message board to replace the old one (no pop-ups now!), so check it out. I’ll be posting on it regularly with paleoanthropological news, and will be making an attempt to advertise it among the various newsgroups soon, so it will hopefully see some traffic. You can get to it via the link on the left. Updated the links on the Links page and Commercial Links page to fix sites that had changed URLs or have disappeared.<\/p>\n
After a long absence, I am again back and prepared to do some serious updating. Look forward to a lot of updates in the future as I correct errors that I have noted, finish up new content, add new hominids, and other such things. As for now, this is a minor update of a few things. Finished reformating some more pages on the site to look more professional and look the same in various screen resolutions. Updated the Journals section to remove dead links, add more journals, and add more links. Fixed an error where a Sangiran 2 photo was labelled as Trinil 2 (anyone with From Lucy to Language take note, this is the source of the error) and fixed links to the pages.<\/p>\n
