It has been changed.

I think it looks great. It has needed work for several years. It appears that they have a webmaster that is quite skilled.

Good job FIRST!

Still nothing...

It's some pretty major change they did to their web page...

A new format using menu, making it a more organized web site...

A little bit confusing at first, then it get easier to go around the site.

Good Job! to the FIRST web master.

backround too distracting

I like the backround and all, but I think it is a bit to distracting and pulls the eye away from the reading.

More Changes to Come...

I was talking to Eric at GLR when the changes started, and it looks like the one that's there now is only temporary...they're working on a MAJOR overhaul that makes the entire system database-driven, rather than having static pages...what I saw of it looked VERY nice, but it most likely won't be up and running under after nationals...

Hit the "Reload" or "Refresh" icons a couple of times to refresh the cache. That worked for me.
