Web Designs

weebly.com is the easiest website design page I have ever used. I have three classroom sites through them. It's all drag and drop, but you can edit the code separately if you want.

You can host a blog on it, images, and pretty much any media you can think of.

There are hundreds of designs to choose from, and you can customize them all any way that you choose.

You can also add multiple admins and editors extremely simply.

Free sites include "weebly" in the url, but it's unobtrusive. If you don't want "weebly" in the url, just purchase a url yourself to use.

Great site to get kids started in web design. It has basic moderation features that will help get the kids involved in creating content right away.

Highly Recommended!!!

I am interested in using Wordpress as a CMS for our team, but I have no experience with it. Can I import my own HTML and create a usable theme from that? Are there any tutorials available for using Wordpress like this?

If you will be at Championships meet up with some of our students. We had a small team of freshman design and build our new site from scratch (i.e. they didn't use word press or any other templates) and when they started they only knew ~10% of what they needed too. The site is also fully responsive. You can check it out here www.cybersonics.org.

If your team won't be at champs please feel free to pm me and we would be more than happy to walk you through our design process.
