Thursday November 6

Todd finalized the website today. It looks very professional.
Now, we will all be able to go over it and add any last minute suggestions in class on Friday.
Update: Friday morning, there were already several suggestions for Todd only on Facebook. Claire Rock messaged everyone telling them to get on and look and send suggestions to either Todd's email or to post it on the Facebook page.
Some examples of the communication:

I think it's overwhelming to have huge paragraphs of info on the web...I am on the team and I don't feel like reading it- what if we put all the info on a tab that ISNT the front page of the website to entice people to look around more instead of leave?Most importantly: I think the "How Trashcot Mascot Works" should be easy to find, follow, and understand. With neither video explaining the process of the competition, it should be in large font and presented CLEARLY. Thoughts??

the tab for the extra info on the homepage could read: "The Process" ???

hey todd! here are a few things i was thinking could be small improvements:-i agree with you that the mission statement should be alone on the homepage. I also think on the homepage could be our group number and blog site link? also, one of the pictures of the dogs made out of recyclables could look like it's on the jumbotron (like you did with the video). and above the picture it could say something like "This week's Trashcot Mascot winner from the University of Georgia.."-with the pictures link, i think that not only should the pictures be the same size but maybe you could separate pictures on top with the headline "Tailgate Recyclables" and some underneath that have the headline "Creative Ways to Recycle...Get Inspired!" or something like that. That way there are two groups of pictures scrolling. -Could you make all of the type a little bit bigger? And separate the links a little bit on the links page?-On the contacts page I think it should say "Contact Group 6"
