Text: A lot of features of the new LTSV website are pretty much the same as on the old one, while a list of all the major changes can be found in the About pages. There are a couple of things that I probably should have tried improving. The process for adding sightings is still the same, with the choice of adding the location either by using a list of existing SV locations, a list of existing sighting locations, or a free-text entry box. This is not hugely intuitive but I think it is the best available solution.

The other thing is that there is still no distinction between Withdrawn and Sold. In the database, vehicles can either be marked as Active or Withdrawn. Withdrawn is treated as synonymous with 'Sold' or 'Out of stock', so I should probably have added a third option for vehicles that are out of use but still owned. Ah well...

Building this website, and the database that runs it, was a very big project and I would not be at all surprised if I have overlooked something or made some errors. It would be really helpful if you could let me know of any issues you encounter while using the site.

Cheers. Tom
