Its finally here.

The much talked about, often delayed, TreasureBeach.Net redesign!

After many years of effort we've released the newest version of the web site. To celebrate we're holding a contest that you can participate in.

The idea is pretty simple: Explore the site by clicking here and look for all the new features, then come back here and tell us what you found.

Some of the items are pretty easy to find, like new colors and images. Others are much more subtle, so look very closely.

We've developed an elaborate grading scale based on how obscure the items are, so the more detailed your posting is the better chance you have of winning the grand prize.

And speaking of the grand prize, we are very excited to announce that the winner will receive the use of the Treasure Beach Emergency Response Unit's ambulance for their personal travel for an entire month. For those who fly in, it will pick you and your companions up at the airport and whisk you away to quiet, peaceful Treasure Beach with the siren screaming the entire way announcing your importance to all within earshot. Imagine how everyone will marvel when you pull up to the Border Jerk Stand for a complimentary festival! And the trip will be so much more comfortable since you'll be laying down on a gurney in the back.

And if you're a Treasure Beach Resident, you can use it to run your errands around town every day of the month. No more leisurely walking down to the shop and talking to your friends along the way for you. Instead, the ambulance will take you there you in deafening style. It will be like your own personal GPS system for others to find you. (And trust us, by the end of the month many will want to find you and have some words about your ear-splitting mode of transport.)

The next 10 runners up will receive the use of personal scooters with a speaker and PA system attached which will blare the whereabouts of the next round robin street party, courtesy of Loud Rude Bwoy Promotions. (Note: due to contractual obligations, the scooters maximum speed will be 15kph)

As we do with the ID-It postings, we'll hold off on showing any of your messages here for a day or so to let everyone have a chance to compete.

Good luck to you all and remember: The 1st person to post the correct answers will win the grand prize which will be awarded in the month of April. You'd be a fool not to participate!

Enjoy,
TBNet

April fools. I knew it was a joke because where I live you can only use the ambulance for car-pooling to the hospital.

The thing I like best about the new site on TB.net is the expanded list under See It & Do It. The peace and quiet has really been getting to me.

I can’t wait to visit Disneyland Treasure Beach and the Epcot Theme Park. I think my favorite rides will be the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad on the Pedro Bluffs, the Jungle Cruise up the Black River, the Tomorrowland Speedway on all the roads, and being given my own machete and cannon so I can participate in the Pirates of the Caribbean.

I also think it’s a great idea that it will cost $82 U.S. a day to get into Treasure Beach, even for the residents—with all that money going to the Government BMW and Mercedes Fund.

Thanks for playing along and indulging my juvenile side. I'm glad some of you got a laugh out of it.

To anyone who was offended at my joke about using the ambulance for something other than the important use of transferring the sick or injured, I apologize. It was meant as a lighthearted bit of fun.

Please note that, as with all the April Fool jokes in the past, Rebecca had no knowledge or pre-approval of this one. So I share the blame alone.

I checked in this morning for the sole purpose of seeing what shenanigans you were up to yesterday. As usual... I was not disappointed! LoL

Ya know, I grabbed a pen and paper ready to write down all the changes, and then remembered I do not have the time to note the changes. Glad I didn't spend any more time on this! You think I would have learned from the time you did the same thing last year, where everything was flashing etc. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice...
