Please let us know what you think!!!

Just a couple suggestions that will help if you are trying to win the website award:

1) I would change the navigation font color to white so it is easier to read. The blue on green can be hard to read. I also believe (don't quote me on this) that it is a bad combination for those that are colorblind (they won't be able to see it).

You may also want to add more of a hover effect to the navigation text. It should be very clear these are links to pages.

2) Make sure the font is consistent throughout the website. You have Tahoma on all of your pages except for the Team Blog which uses Lucida Sans for the posts.

3) You need more information about FIRST. Right now, there is next to none. You have to consider that someone may come to your site that has no idea what FIRST is. Most teams have some sort a section about FIRST and the game.

4) There's a section on the website rubric that asks the judges to check the xHTML and CSS validation at http://validator.w3.org/. You have small xHTML markup validation issues. They are easy fixes. Let me know if you have any trouble fixing them and I should be able to help.

5) Definitely add more content if you can. Take a look at other team's websites and see what they have.

I believe (but don't quote me on this, wait, that sounds familiar) that RED and green are the colors that most colorblind people have a hard time differentiating.

Thanks for the imput. I'll let our web team know that they need more content overall, especially FIRST stuff (they'll probably get mad at me ). I know they were saying that the content amount was going to be like, tripled by Midwest so hopefully that's still the case.

And I'll make sure they take the navigation stuff and the font stuff into serious consideration.

Thanks for the feedback!!! Anyone who has anything else please feel free to share, we're trying to make it a really great site.
