Have you done web design or development? Do you really understand how hard this stuff is, especially when it is done with a limited staff and budget? Give the guys a break.

As someone who does understand (and manage) web site and web applications development, I'd like to say it is important to remember two key things: (1) Keep it simple. (2) Please your customers, especially those who pay you.

Agreed. I wouldn't have done the flag bit myself but hey, no sense to go off the deep-end over it. My point is simple: FR operates as a non-profit with very limited staff and budget. Hence, no need to go on and on about how bad the new site is. Let them know and give them a chance to correct. I just get tired of "THIS IS AWFUL!!!!!THIS SUCKS". Have decorum.

You know what? I am tired of this and I've been coding ASP.NET for awhile. Time to log off.

Let me get this straight ... keep it simple and be customer pleasing ... whew

I just don't understand you networking artists until I see it on a greaseboard with guys shooting baskets or some other kookiness going on.

I hate to butt in on your spirtitual Master Po like zen session ... but part of keeping it "simple" is making sure ALL your customers pay. I'd work on that one first.
