I have been handling the local Sportsman's Club web site now for about 5 years. The old site just couldn't keep up with things anymore as the Club has grown and become very active over the last year. I have spent so much time re doing things to add new info or change current info I finally said enough was enough however and talekd them into letting me start over.
So I basically started out from scratch and re did the site entirely. There was just a ton of info I had to include and it hampered me in regards to appearance. JUst no way for a slim quick loading site with all I had to include. The Club wants a lot of stuff on certain pages and they want it in certain ways and they will only listen to me to a point. They also love pictures and images so I had to use them as often as I did( for anyone who thinks it is image heavy - just no choice ).
Overall I am happy with the site I think. I added a lot of new features for them( and me ) and the site is much more modern and has a lot of "BLING" which makes them happy. I finally got into layers and popup layers wiith WD and I can only wonder why I didn't do it before.
I believe everything is working correctly but for one bug I can not seem to fix. I use an iframe on a couple pages and whenever you mouseover a link or a certain type of popup photo( only when created in WD - doesn't do it with links on widgets )it causes the bottom scroll bar on the iframe to flicker. If I set the frame so the bottom scroll bar is not needed( so it becomes invisible )it flickers on and off as you mouseover the links. If I set it so the bar is visible when you mouseover it makes it disappear and then it stays gone and flickers on mouseover events. It is driving me nuts. However, it does not effect any functions of the site so for now I am leaving it as is. I will try and solve it eventuallly( anyone have any clue? ).
Still waiting for feedback from the Club but it has everything they wanted so I expect it to be positive.
Constructive feedback always appreciated.
