There is a little icon next to each Campaign/Mission that you are enlisted. Now you can see where you are enlisted right on the page.

Yeah I noticed it some time back. Being involved in about 15 campaigns I had to write them down, every once in awhile I would have to look for that piece of paper. Now with those little icons it makes it easier to find what campaigns i've inlisted in.

Not only that, but there is now a resign button for anyone who----- like myself---- overloaded themselves, and wishes to resign quitely, and without any needed explanation.
I personally have found that I have overloaded myself, and would never be able to finish several that I entered in the thrill and excitment of a new campaign, signing up...... then going nuts trying to finish.

I noticed the new layout yesterday, but I'm curently swamped by life, I'm not enrolled in any campaigns... so haven't noticed that additional neat little feature... well done Jim! That will come in handy...
On the flip side... these sorts of things are only as good as the ppl that use them... so folks, please use them and make the campaign leaders lives alot easier...

I've noticed the new look, but not the icons.
I've just taken a look. Excellent new feature.

Mary, go into your campaign profile... right at the bottom of the screen is a yellowish "Resign" button...
Just enrolled for the Bosworth field campaign... I now see what the icons are all about... looks cool

*LOL* You know, I'd noticed them as well but I didn't want to bring it up in case they had been there for a long time and I just hadn't noticed them.
I didn't want to further confirm for everyone how oblivious I am at times and what an idiot I can be....


Like Mother, I had to write them down.
I enlisted in more than I probably should have.
I like this feature ! It's one more thing that makes this a nice place to be.
Thanks to the staff here at Big A.

Just found out from this post! Excellent idea...I was wondering which ones I was enrolled in myself
!
Of course this doesn't mean I'm not modeling, only not modeling for any campaigns, that is!

Well even I learned something new. I didn't know about the resign button. Unfortunately I had to drop out of one!

I find it to be a great feature - I'm enrolled in 3 & that's already plenty for me - so it is a nice built in reminder.

Now if we can only get Jim to figure out how to graphically plot the campaigns on a 2 year calendar so we can see the overlaps :-)

Actually, I think it would be nice if the Debarkation Zone listed in order by start date and the Active Campaigns were listed in order by finish date.
Just a thought.
