Title: New unit & website
Post by: arajca on April 10, 2005, 07:11:34 PM
As some of you may know, I am working to establish a squadron in Summit County, Colorado (where I live). After jumping though many hoops, I am finally able to start advertising the effort. To assist with that, I have designed and put up a web site,www.greatdividecap.org (http://www.greatdividecap.org). I would like some input on it, as I am somewhat biased toward the design. ;D

A couple of caveats -
1) This website is also my final project for a Dreamweaver class I am taking. Many of the elements (frames, flash buttons, layers, etc.) are required to pass the class.
2) At this time, only the front, information, and info. request pages are working. The others will go up as I get them finished.
3) This is the first website I have actually desinged from scratch.

That command patch in the background graphic looks familiar.
Whoever created that must be rediculously good looking.  ;)

that was actually taken by my wing CP guy.  I think NHQ got it from our website a couple years ago.  hehe   although, I did send it on a CD to our region, they might have given it to NHQ.

It's amazing how pictures circulate the web.  I had a squadron in Virginia or something hotlink all the images from my wing website one time.  I noticed it in the logs and told him to just put the images on his server, since he had already copied all of my text, too. ;)

I pulled it off the National Site.

On the disclosure on the bottom of your homepage you might want to reference CAPR 110-1 at the end.  I don't know if it is required but it made our Region IT guru happy when I put it at the bottom of our region Safety Website.

Looks like you're headed in the right direction.
