The Pakistan Game Fish Association | www.pgfa.org | Official Blog

O rite guys we are here now, finally after getting loads of complains on receiving tons of emails from our Yahoo based mailing list and as we are getting 100s of hits day by day and different types of anglers wants to discuss different things on their time and topic, this is becoming impossible to carry on at Yahoo Groups and I guess this is the time to launch BLOG, A BLOG?

It’s an advanced and more easy to use form of Discussion Forum here after joining and by using the personalized DASHBOARD  (admin section) you guys can place POSTs which is equals to a new question/discussion or a message at Yahoo Group and on a POST rest of the members can reply by placing COMMENTS, here you can even write a single word expressing your thoughts as per your available time, example write “GOOD” and it will appear in the COMMENTS linked with the POST.

At Yahoo we use to delete loads of single liners just to avoid unnecessary traffic at forum which then result in member’s un-subscriptions coz nobody would like to receive dozens of email every day in their mailboxes but here you guys can write shortest COMMENT having single word or a huge multi pages COMMENT/POST with videos, images etc and no email will be delivered to any other member, whatever you post will remain under the POST and well organized under CATEGORIES>POST>COMMENTS

TO Register

Registration is as easy as two clicks, Go to http://blog.pgfa.org click on the link to REGISTER (http://blog.pgfa.org/wp-login.php?action=register) this will take you to a screen asking for User Name and Email enter the info and press REGISTER that’s it you are done, password will be e-mailed to you automatically after few minutes.

The other great feature is Picture Gallery, by using GALLERY option available in DASHBOARD you guys can upload as many images as you would like to upload and it will be bind with your profile, the other fast feature is if you have many images to upload use upload images using zip, in sets of 2MB files you guys can upload your images in bulk linked with the GALLERY preferably use your name just like we have many at Yahoo Groups, there is more now you can even post comments on individual photos!

By using browse by category you guys can browse as per your interests for example Freshwater, Trout Fishing, Saltwater etc. etc.

Our very own www.pgfa.org is linked with this blog and repots, species, destinations N maps, Ask Guru etc sections will be remained available after getting membership of PGFA.

This and more to come

Good Fishing,

While we are still working around the clock to get the site 100% again here are a few new things that are going to enhance everyones pleasure when surfing your very own angling encyclopedia - the pgfa website.

1. photo section.
If you scroll to the bottom right of the homepage (in the fishing in pakistan section) you will see a photo section. Before a member would have to click on the link to the pgfa forum and THEN access the picture. Now it is direct on the homepage. We look forward to many more interesting pictures and videos from here onwards.

2. The Official PGFA Blog
Now, in addition to the forum which is the only place where discussions are taking place, the official PGFA BLOG will soon be up as well. A fantastic new development, the blog will allow may new features to be incorporated into the general discussions and chats that are taking place presently in the forum.
