Panel 1: Standard Panel
The purpose of this page is to help give you an idea of all of the different ways we can layout content on your site. We use a Panel Concept, and you’ll be able to view the various options below. The Standard Panel is one of the most diverse panel options we have available. It can be used to create buttons or links, upload PDF’s and supporting documents or any other information you’d like to place here.
The formatting options available here are also complex. We will upload all of the options so that it’s easy for you to use when you’re updating all of your own content.

Panel 2: Promo Boxes
Caribbean Village
Friday Night Extravaganza
Short Subtitle Can Go Here
The quick, brown fox jumps over a lazy dog. DJs flock by when MTV ax quiz prog. Junk MTV quiz graced by fox whelps. Bawds jog, flick quartz, vex nymphs.
Add more text under.
Panel 3: Mini Promo Boxes
Panel 4: Parallax Panel
This panel type should be reserved for a short eye catching blurb of information. As you can see, the words stay in place while the image scrolls behind it. We recommend around 85 - 100 characters in this section if possible. If you need assistance with a background image feel free to reach out to your account manager and they can help you choose one.
Another great addition is that the parallax panel allows for a button which can be a URL link, a phone number or email. Keep this in mind as it’s great for helping with lead generation!
Panel 6: Side by Side with a Video
Short Subtitle Can Go Here
Here is another example of a Side by Side but this time with a video on the right hand side! You can envision a similar concept as above, but this time you can place a relevant YouTube or Vimeo video here to help users understand the point you are making.
Panel 8: Photo Gallery
Panel 9: Dynamic Newsfeed
