Help? Give me your comments/opinions about the QCUSA site?





Hello fellow listers,

I got home last night to discover a forwarded email from Karen Chadwick
in my inbox.  (see below)

---------------------------------------------------
"I have walked around the web site, and while I find the information
that is contained there to be very useful I find the presentation of it
to be very disturbing- I get a headache just trying to figure out where
to start on any given page.  It is entirely too busy.  <<SNIP>>
 ---------------------------------------------------

Then Karen adds....

"Hi Darin...just thought I'd send this comment your way...the page may
be a bit too overwhelming for some people, sometimes less is more.  I
haven't had time to study it yet, but will have a good look at it and
perhaps we can brainstorm ideas to  how to make it look cleaner."

If you have a chance please look at the porsche web site..its really
easy to use and easy on the eyes.
I do appreciate all the work you've done on it.

Ok, so I'm a little disturbed by the fact that she wants to change it
because of one comment.  You can't please everyone no matter how hard
you try.  She has mentioned the PCA.ORG web site to me damn near six
times now, and I think she'd rather have the QCUSA site like that.  I
personally think the PCA site is _boring_ ... and I'd resign my post as
"webmaster for QCUSA" before I build a page like that.  I have nothing
against the PCA, I just don't care for the rather bland web site.
I'm actually thinking of resigning as it is...  I spent over a week to
completely go through the site and come up with the final version, so
I'm obviously not thrilled about the idea of having to come up with yet
another design.  (Especially since all of my time is DONATED on the
QCUSA web site)

So I'm looking for _honest_ opinions about the site from you.
(http://www.quattroclubusa.org)  If I get enough comments telling me it
sucks, I'll redo it I guess, then will probably give notice that I wish
to resign my "post".  It isn't that I can't handle criticism, I happen
to like constructive criticism because it lets me know what to do in the
future.  I'm just puzzled by the sudden 180' turn...

If there is anyone out there that is a QCUSA member, has experience with
running a web site, and doesn't mind working for free, drop me a line
and I'll pass your name along to Karen should I decide to call it quits.

I'll climb off my soap box now...
(***PLEASE respond directly to me as I don't want to clutter the lists
with this thread!  :-)
