Slogging away
Have been working on the clean up. It’s taking longer than I thought it would because little things keep cropping up as I’m going along. I’ve added a little taupish coloured table of secondary navigational links on pages that have subsections (either anchor links on the same page or separate pages), e.g. executive section, competition pages. I wanted a colour that was neutral without being grey or plain beige. It seems to look OK but maybe I’ve been looking at it way too long.
I’m cleaning up the style sheet as I’m going along — there are a lot of styles in it that have similar names where only one is used. I keep refining my Dreamweaver template as I go along so it’s slow going right now. Once I have that solidly nailed down, the rest of the pages will go faster. Cleaning up the style sheet is going a long way towards getting the template solidified.
Think I’m going to replace the two coloured boxes on the main page with a coloured table (using the taupish colour as well as 1 or two other colours) that will contain the latest news (older news will go on a separate What’s New page) plus whatever else I can think of (ultimately, it would contain the RSS feeds from the international site and their forum).
