Re: Team 1504's Website--Critiques Requested!

I like the general look of the site but there are a few things you may want to change:

Links can be colored to go along with your team colors or not change color when clicked on by putting LINK=RRGGBB (how they start) and VLINK=RRGGBB (color when viewed) inside your body tag, changing them to however you would like (I think that making them the same color before and after makes it look better).

Also the SOAP link brings you to a redirect, so instead of putting that site just put the site that their link leads you to, which saves users time and frustration if they are trying to get back to your site but keep getting redirected back to SOAP's.

This idea would also solve the previous problem, but you could make all external links open in new windows by putting TARGET="resource window" inside the <A> tag. Then the user can just close that window when they want to return instead of having to hit back and run into problems like the one above.

Also on image links you could use the link tags to color the borders around them or you can just get rid of the border altogether by putting BORDER="0" inside the <IMG> tag.

Hope this helps.
