The new site is very nice looking and I’ve been enjoying tooling around discovering everything it has to offer. I was confused by the two choices on the first page, “connect” and “generate.” I’ve been around Circle so I can figure out what you mean by generate, but for someone visiting the site for the first time I think it’s not very clear. If someone is visiting for the first time they may not want to connect or generate. They may just want some information. On the same note when I choose connect, the first page I get feels like a lot of writing with some closed conversations among ourselves. I know no one intends for them to be closed, everything at Circle of Hope is open, it just feels closed. I would like the first page to offer a chance to get information. I really want people visiting the site to stick around and not feel left out.

Also I want to add information about the ampm and the children’s cell, and how we care for children at Circle of Hope. How do I go about this?

I do love the pictures!

Honestly – I liked the city picture better. The old map is pretty, but we are hardly historical. I am happy the logo is there.

On the title page…
Rather than “They will know we are Christians by our love” (which is true)
Can we reinforce one of our slogans and brand it?
For example: A safe place to explore and express God’s love OR
A church for the next generation OR
A network of hope to meet the challenge of the 21st century

Someone is able to solve the Internet explorer issues — right?

it seems that agencies and register are colliding a bit in my safari browser.

Yeah, white on white…. Are you signed in as an admin? I’d troll through K2’s site or check your admin personalization schemes.

i love the clean sans type for the site. i did question the new circle logo, it doesn’t seem to relate to the rest of the typefaces. Great job Justin! others

Thanks, Matthew. We’ll be tweaking the colors on Allies soon. As for spam, yeah. No kidding. But we are running the anti-spam plug in Askimet. It should hold back the hords for a time. We’ll see how it goes and if we need additional measures.

Also, no one can figure out why my comments are still white on white…

Yeah i like the colours too. However, on the Allies Page the hyperlinks are too dark and aren’t readable.
Browser: Firefox 2.0
Platform: Windows

I also like the fact that you don’t have to sign in to post. However, it is a security risk. Yodsfu could get spammed to death. You may want to implement those crazy picture letter things to submit post and to also verify that robots aren’t hitting the servers.
