Nannotax Enabling nannofossil research

New format for species pages

I have just now been implementing a more sophisticated, layout for the species pages. This presents the descriptive text and images in separate "panels". The reason for doing this is to allow much smoother addition of new images, now when images when are uploaded they simply need to be tagged to the species they belong to and will automatically be added to the relevant page (before they had to be uploaded to gallery page then dragged and dropped into the species page they belonged to, which was ok if you understood the system, but far from straightforward).

So far this is only applied to Helicosphaera, e.g H. recta. Please do have a look at these pages and make comments in the forum page about how you feel about it.

Most importantly this makes me much more confident that the system can be expanded to (1) include Palaeogene and Mesozoic nannofossils and extant nannoplankton; (2) Include additonal types of content (e.g. occurrence data from the Neptune database and orignal descritions frm the Farinacci catalog - which would be added as extra panels to the species pages)
