Re: 2992's New Website

Yea I agree, I really like your teams site! It's full of a lot information and has a really good color scheme.

Some pointers I would give is to make things a little more clean and simple. Use more empty space. I would suggest putting you sponsors on the bottom of each page instead of on the sides. Also, as said above, the nav bar needs to be more prominent.

Also, there is a lot of information per page. For example, on the about us page there is info about FIRST, your team history, your website history, and history of your past seasons. If you create a drop down menu with subpages for each of these categories it will look less cluttered and it will be easier to find specific information.

And always when designing a website think of the hierarchy of whats important. When your webpage first opens you want eyes to immediately go to whats most important (slideshow of photos, team logo or name, etc.), then to the second most important thing, and so on. Right now when I open the home page my eyes are bouncing all over the place and I don't know whats most important.

But these are all minor details and for the reasons you have previously said, I think this is a very good website!
