For the past...oh 2 weeks I guess, I have been working to complete our teams website.

We are competing in the Canadian Regionals so competition is minimal.

I could have done a better job on the design I admit but its the content thats KEY.

Our site includes a real cool FIRST Canadian Regional TRIVIA. It also has cool downloads for the FIRST competition including a few screen savers...interactive backgrounds. I also took the time to go around our team and gather a LOT more info to pump the site up with amazing stuff.

All the scripting has a moderator backend to allow teacher mods and team members to easily add news or change anything. It even has a very useful page logging system IP log + host lookup + page log.

Took me a while but ALAS its complete. The site is developed in PHP+ASP and has a mySQL backend. There is some Flash too (I couldn't resist the temptation of placing a SWF within :-))

Well enough of my rambling heres the site:

St. Michael's College ROBOBLUE WARRIORS Website

Anyways enjoy :-)
Hey that's really nice, man!
Keep it up!
I voted awesome.

One thing is this:
If you want to be really competitive in the website design award, you might want to guy a domain name just so it seems more professional. www.stargateinc.com sold me all my domains for 7.95 a year. You can do it cheaply, it looks more professional, and, most importantly, tons more people will type "www.roboblue.com" than "www.stmichaelscollege.ca/robotics" just because it's quicker and easier to remember.
It's not a necessity, and I'll bet you're going to be the winner, but it would look nice.
