Fair enough, but it would be worth it to get the new design company to 
post a note on the old one to watch out for the new site coming to a 
monitor near you.

All of this is hard with contractual obligations and all. The company my 
wife works for has had a lot of fun in this area. Her previous boss out 
sourced one of their main sites about 1 1-1/2 years ago. He basically 
hired a company due to friendship with the sales weasel.

anyway, the boss left, external company fired, and my wife is now back 
to being the official personal responsible for the web site, but with 
all the other commitments, a total redesign won't be hitting the streets 
until next year. Until then she will be able to apply fixes here and 
there. Some had to be done because the idiots did not design the site 
with KAPPA (sp?) in mind (the web site is for a childrens product, KAPPA 
is the legislation in the states for protecting kiddies against porn (no 
problem with that part) and undo sales pressure and stuffs)

sorry for the rant, but I think it is very bad form for Triumph to leave 
the site as is.

YMMV,

cheers,
Tom
