New Fly Recipe Website

[joemathis]

Hi Everyone!

A new recipe site has launched! It's called Fly Recipes [dot] com (www.flyrecipes.com)

Yes, it's my personal site and this is a shamless self promotion, but I'm not selling anything or otherwise trying to trick anyone. I just love fly tying and I think I've put together a pretty cool site starting out with over 800 recipes with another 1,250 cataloged and to be online by end of summer. I've built a filtering system using over 100 tags to help you find you pattern quickly.

One of your very own members, 'langland_fisher', has visited and contributed his flies that he posted on this forum under the post "Flies for Isle of Harris Salmon." You can view Nigel's flies at http://www.flyrecipes.com/index.php?...=287&Itemid=35.

Come look around, tie a fly, upload a fly, tell me what you think.

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe
Good web site. I can see a lot of work has gone into it. Like the idea of adding a recipe and other fly tiers rating it.
May I suggest that when clicking on the chosen fly image to view a larger image it opens in a seperate minimised window as viewers might inadvertantly click the X in the corner to close the image rather than the back button thus leaving the site.

Best of luck

It looks good, hope it takes off.

Thank you all for your kind words, I am very appreciative!

If any of you have recipes and photos, even if a similar fly already exists, I would honored to have you upload them.

@Itchy - Thanks for the heads up on the picture. It is already supposed to be acting in just the manner you suggest. I will go in today and find my error.

Thank you all for visiting!

Working on the step by step stuff now. I can do this without any problems i the backend, my delima is making this available to users to upload step by step instructions. I have to make sure that the system can handle uploading multiple pictures at once without timing out for the users.

Thanks for joining and swapping!
