Re: Team1625's Website

A few suggestions

1) The FIRST, WHS, and Winnebago Fans Association logos on the top banner should link to their respective websites when you click on them

2) the "registering with TIMS" blurb on the left panel seems out of place. I think this should be incorporated into a new "Getting Involved" section

3) If I were a potential sponsor, it takes a bit of navigation to find team contact information. For people handing out money, you should make this process as easy as possible.

4) I think the homepage (i.e. if I where reading an article on rrstar.com about students doing robotics, what I would get linked to). Should be very concise and exciting so non team members are more likely to view other pages of the webpage. I think something like a picture slide show should be front and center as well as a short mission statement. For a non team member, the bot shop schedule for this week doesn't really give a whole lot of value. Having a central place to manage team activity is a perfectly valid use case for the webstie, however, I think a website is a very valuable tool in being able to quickly explain to someone what Winnovation and FIRST is about, to get them 'hooked' on to the idea and linking them to information about how they can contribute or get involved.

5) The information for light bulb orders is kind of hidden. In general, people don't click on links in less they are given a strong reason too (they also don't scroll but it looks like you have done a decent job of keeping the important stuff above the fold).

6) Where's the LinkedIn share button? http://developer.linkedin.com (sorry I just had to... )
