Ladies and gentlemen, it's here…..the Provider Showcase!

In the next few hours, we plan to introduce you to "The Provider Showcase"…..the latest feature here at ECCIE, designed to improve the ladies exposure with the gentlemen of ECCIE and to greatly improve your search for the lady of your desires.

The Showcase is a customized template that any of our Verified Providers can load up with detailed info about their availability, profile, contact info, other stats, and even a paragraph-style biography. In addition to this, the ladies can upload large high-resolution photos to their showcase which you can view in a beautiful expanded lightbox display…along with links to their recent reviews from any of the various hobby sites they choose to include.

You can access the library of Showcases in a variety of ways. Probably the easiest way is the Provider Showcase tab at the top of each page. Clicking the tab gives you several options, from Browsing newly-added showcases, to browsing recently-modified showcases, to doing a search using your specific criteria…for example, eye color, bust size, or something as simple as your Metro Location to display only the girls in your area of the country.

You may also access the selection of Featured Showcases on our main page by clicking on the name or thumbnail to view the provider's info.

And yet another way to get to someone's showcase is from EVERY post they make in the forums. If any Verified Provider has created a showcase, she will have a "My Showcase" link in her user info, below her handle and avatar. Girls can update their showcases 24/7 with the latest info and pics, and all changes made are done in "real-time" so there is no waiting for a change to take effect.

This is an exciting feature for the site, that you won't find anywhere except on ECCIE! The library currently consists of a small handful of beautiful showcases created by ladies who volunteered to help us through the development and testing phase of Provider Showcase. Take a moment to compliment them on their work via PM. I'm certain they will appreciate it. I would also like to personally thank each of them for helping us bring this vision to reality.

Hope you like the showcase, guys! If you like what you see, then please do us all a favor and invite or encourage all of your favorite providers to build their showcase as soon as possible so we can all sit back and watch as the library grows. After hearing the feedback we have heard so far, we are certain this feature will be a big hit and equally valuable for both hobbyists and providers.

TBONE & Becky

PS. Along with the rollout of the Provider Showcase, you may also notice a slightly modified, new look on our Main Page here at ECCIE. Our goal is to grow as our community grows, and to bring you cutting-edge features that are ACTUALLY USEFUL. The new home page highlights the Showcase feature, but also gives us a strong foundation for future development, and addition of features and upgrades that we know you, our family, will enjoy and appreciate.

Thank you to everyone here who is part of this growing and thriving community. We couldn't have made it this far without you, and we plan to give back to you every step of the way by listening very closely to the needs of our membership and developing the many great ideas we hear into features and site enhancements that make sense and work.

Merry "early" Christmas to everyone! God bless.
I think i'm going to like the Showcase so if anyone wants my Info all I have to do is give them the link to it.

But does it change on the Main page to different showcases as u refresh the page?

Looks good, TBONE.

Hey, cool idea! Me likes this.
Great feature, TBone. Thanks for adding it.

I assume this is still a work-in-progress and awaiting some additional updated info from the ladies. As an example, Ms. Julia was one of the featured showcases at the top of the page so I clicked it on. The info listed was quite comical as it bears no resemblance to her. Thought it might be some "test" data.

Anyhow, this will be a valuable tool and I appreciate you putting it online.

We have a solution for incomplete showcases, and it's being implemented as we speak.
