Along with the move comes a complete site overhaul. The following is just a short list of the improvements added to the site: 1) Researchers can now add birth records 2) Researchers can add records to all fifty states, not just a select few 3) The search features have been streamlined, allowing for more efficient and flexible searches 4) Users can edit their own records without administrative intervention. They can also add photographs to already submitted records. 5) A new User's Homepage shows submitters the records they have contributed, plus gives links for adding or editing records. If a county coordinator or other webmaster would like to link to records for a specific county, we have a page that will generate the correct URL for them: http://www.bmdproject.com/getURL.php Permission is granted to foward this message to any appropriate list.
