Re: Website award help
"Scouting" other successful FRC team websites is certainly worthwhile.
Your team has a great history and story to tell. You've got excellent material to work into your website.
Winning the website awards involves "packaging" your content in a way that encourages viewers to dig into your site.
Look at Team 16's "Bomb Squad" site (two-time winner last year). They've structured the website so it's easy to navigate, offers interesting current news, team history, FIRST description, etc. They created a balance of stories, photos, graphics, history, links, in a visually appealing format.
Of course, you must avoid format, grammatical or spelling errors since those are major distractions to viewers.
I think you just need to do some polishing of your format to move it from a B+ to an A+.
