Do you mean something like viewing a featured image for each news post on the homepage?

I was thinking of having the logo in the navbar in a similar fashion to thebluealliance.com. We already have pictures of the team in the Photos section and the Robot section has a few pictures of our past two robots along with stats from TBA. I'm guessing it was hard to find the pages because of the way the navbar is organized. Do you have any suggestions on how it should be as far as grouping goes?

Yes, the Log In button is mainly for team members, however anyone can register and if anyone else registers, they become a subscriber and get E-Mail updates. Since there is already a Log In link in the footer, do you still think the navbar button should be removed?

Thanks for the suggestions! It helps to have a fresh pair of eyes look at the website!
