64102 2002-07-21 23:38:00 Thanks to all for your comments.

At the moment I have simply included the bits (they were navigation links) on each page. Not too onerous as there is only 8 pages and not that much chance of frequent changes.

It is a site for our local cricket club (not very populated yet but we want to get it up in time for registration) - I've gone for function over form :)

Have a look at

whitby cricket club (http://www.whitbycricket.orcon.net.nz)

and post comments that would let me improve it if you like.

Thanks

64103 2002-07-22 05:22:00 First off It'sgood to see that you have stuck to a theme, however these are the changes I would make.

1. It's a site about cricket so perhaps a couple of pics, at least one on the main page but don't make it too big otherwise it will take too long to load.

2. I would put the home link at the start and have all the other links in alphabetical order. home contacts draw links ... etc. (always have home at the start though).

Just another note on links , I would make the page that the person is on just plain text. So when they are on the home page then clicking the home link will do nothing.


Good work all the same.

Cheers
Sam

64104 2002-07-22 05:24:00 I'd ditch the purple text - it doesn't help readability. Go with basic black, the colour for all occaisions. Biggles (121)
64105 2002-07-22 23:17:00 Thanks for the comments guys.

I have made some changes (Will put a small picture/logo up once the club decides what to use)

I think I will also put each of the field maps up on separate pages with links only from "draw"

64106 2002-07-23 00:26:00 whoa, i bet the amount of orcon customers has doubled, i know several people are using webspace there, and they have had no previous experience with webspace. good job orcon, but i think the should include 'pc world' in the 'where did you hear about us' menu. sal (67)
64107 2002-07-23 00:39:00 Yes, but...

64108 2002-07-23 00:57:00 First up, nice to see such a clean site!

Want some tips:

1- A bit much blue. Replace your side image with something relevant eg a cricket ball or something
2- You are going to put a form in the member page (where it says ' fill out the form below') aren't you? :)
3- The field maps only need to be 3 colour GIFs. This will make them load lickety split. If you want, I can help you with converting these.
4- Is it intententional that all sentances and heading start with a lower case character?

64109 2002-07-23 01:25:00 Thanks :)

1. Yes, I will do something like this once I have the content right

2. I had one there (last night) but it didn't seem to work - then I got too tired and collapsed into bed - I suspect the orcon free sites don't handle scripts very well (but I'm such a newbie at this I will have to do more research/learning)

3. Yes please (do you need something from me)?

4. Yes it is intentional (I was initially using a cool font that made this look real cool (enviro), but then I learned that people don't see it in that font :_|
