Thanks Arne. What do other people think of this feedback? Is there someone who is really willing to take ownership of getting the website into shape, perhaps using these pieces of feedback as a starting point? It will be a significant amount of work to address all of the points, but a well-designed website is critical to the project's success.
It might be too late given the new design, but my recommendation might have been to start from something like Bootstrap <http://getbootstrap.com/>, which makes it brain-dead simple to create very attractive websites. I know a lot of developers without much design skill that have used it to very good effect. Ian. On Thu, Nov 5, 2015 at 2:50 PM, Arne Babenhauserheide <arne_...@web.de> wrote: > Am Mittwoch, 4.
