2 - Navigating the Big Pigeon website:
Big Pigeon contains nearly 200 webpages, each with a common main menu across the top.

From any webpage, you can access any other webpage by using the drop-down feature of the main menu.

Alternatively, and generally easier, you can work from the Home - Pigeon Central webpage using my hotspots:

Each hotspot within Home - Pigeon Central accesses a webarea's main webpage.
A menu in a main webpage accesses subsidiary webpages (some main webpages don't have subpages).
A hotspot in the upper-right of a subsidiary webpage returns to the webarea's main webpage.
The Pigeon Central hotspot in the upper-right of a webarea's main webpage returns to Home - Pigeon Central.
For pages without a Pigeon Central hotspot, just click on Home in the upper-left corner.
Sometimes you'll find additional hotspots in the upper-right corner or embedded in a webpage body.
