Hey All,
I still have more to the site that I want to do, but for the most part it's done and just wanted to get some constructive criticism from some professionals. Please let me know what you think or if you have any ideas to make it better.
Also, there are a few dead links, but I'm working on getting those taken care of so I apologize ahead of time. I really didn't change much from the template because I really liked the colors already.

Thanks Alot!

i've never been a fan of rotating banners because of the distraction from the main content... but seeing as in this case the images are a big part of your message, its pretty good use of them.
how bout installing Artio Joomsef to fix those unsightly URI's - Say no to Internet Explorer 6.

Noted...by installing that though will all the links I currently have within the site become broken and then I have to change all of that as well? I've never installed Joomsef before but it looks like a task that is not easily reversed if I do it so I'd like to make sure I get it right the first time. - | www.wentzvillecc.com |

It's a clean, easy site to navigate. It seems all about conveying information and the church's message and that's fine.
I just find that some of the graphical elements could be integrated better. The flash banner is OK, but the rounded boxes on the left seem a little out of place. I would at least reduce the rounding of the corners and make them more subtle. Not sure about the iPod wearing man in the second box... that image somehow does not go with a church site. Also the bottom banner's font is not really matching the site very well.
Possibly, the ext Calendar component could be styled some more to integrate into the site's colour scheme better. The default silver theme is nice on its own but looks like a bit of an alien on this site.
So, IMHO, content/navigation - good, extra graphical elements - need improvement.

artio joomsef does not erase any of your old links it just makes them accessible via less obtrusise, often 1 or 2 word urls
the old urls will work fine.

Thanks for the input everyone. Aside from my own geeky "family" site that I do, this is really my first site that I've ever done, and it's really been a learning experience for me. I appreciate everyone's comments though and I'm gonna work on some changes.
Thanks again!
And Happy Holidays to everyone! - | www.wentzvillecc.com |
