The site was made using ASP (Active Server Pages), so it is very dynamic. If you look at the source code for the main page, you'll see that it's about 500 lines of code. Since that is a lot of code to debug, the actually server side code is only 50 lines long, and uses server-side includes to be easily manageable. The Members, Alumni, Mentors, and Subteams pages all retrieve information from a database, so they can be easily updated. |
Looks good, but the FIRST logo on the right should be in color, and all your images should be resized in an image editor before uploading them to the site. It both saves bandwidth and looks better. There is an excellent free editor called Paint.NET that few people use, and it resembles Photoshop fairly well in both features and interface.
If you are using transparent GIF files, you should manually edit out all white pixels, or just leave the background as white. (Like the Port Authority sponsor logo or the FIRST Overdrive graphic.) Alternatively you could use blending modes in Photoshop to seamlessly put the background in, but since you have a fixed background this wouldn't work. (I did this on

Hope this helps.
Edit: Okay I took the shadows out of the Overdrive graphic using the EPS file, and then rendered it to a transparent PNG.
