The HRI website rocketed into cyberspace with a new look and feel when it was launched this July.
   The redesign project was a collaboration of HRI faculty, C3 Creative and Third Coast Photo & Web who put their talents together to showcase HRI’s personnel, facilities, research projects and current events in a contemporary electronic format. The original HRI website provided basic information, but as the HRI moves forward into a new era of development, the administration determined that the time for a more dynamic website had come.
   The new website design places the main information in the center of each page, current articles in vertical sidebars, an extensive photo gallery, links to other Gulf of Mexico programs, and photos and bios of all HRI personnel and students.
   Photos at the top and bottom change from page to page, showcasing the HRI facilities, researchers in action

and underwater photos from the Harley Moody collection. On the left hand side of each page, buttons provide quick links to HRI's seminar series, newsletter and contact information.
   The website will be updated and expanded as the institute grows and advances.
