Over all, I think it's looking very good! <br><br>I do agree with a the sentiment expressed by others that it could be a little more simplified, with a little less text and a little more image.<br><br>I'd love to see a video embed from Climate Camp TV on the home page. Maybe in the 'Highlights' section, but ideally it's own little permanent space.<br>
<br>We have a few films ready already that can fill the space until more comes on-line before and during camp.<br><br>Vision on TV have a video player that can be embeded for this purpose. <br><br>When you are ready, Hamish and I have in-put for the Climate Camp TV page/site. We aren't even sure if you are planning to have a page, but we can either build it and simply link in to you, or you, hopefully, will be able to be more involved (we don't want to ad to your already heavy load).<br>
<br>Looking good.<br><br>Emily<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/8/2 Jonathan Leighton <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:j@jonathanleighton.com">j@jonathanleighton.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Now for my own comments...<br>
<br>
* Love the typography :)<br>
* "Put the date in your diary" and "There are lots of ways to get<br>
involved with Climate Camp" could both be way more punchy. I'd suggest<br>
"Find out more" and "Get involved!"<br>
* Blog - the photos are nice, but the reality is that it will probably<br>
be a small group of people writing the blog and so the same faces all<br>
the time. So I would suggest dropping them. I would also drop "Written<br>
by" and "Tags", and agree with Jody about dropping the date (on the<br>
front page). Basically, I'm keen for it to be very simple.<br>
* I imagine the titles "From the blog", "Press releases", "Climate<br>
campers online", etc being links out to these areas. Can it be made more<br>
obvious that they are links?<br>
* I don't think having the title "Highlights" is necessary.<br>
<br>
