1. A plus
It's easy to navigate, which is the MOST important thing to me.

But it also looks exciting and inviting.

There is lots of useful info there too.

2. Looks really nice!
Just a little constructive feedback--when you rollover the links on the main page--the ones in the light gray font--they turn white and against the white background, that means they disappear!

Also, when rolling over the links/menu on the right, the name of the image file appears. The same with the banner and sub-banner.

You might want to consider using a left-aligned, unordered list for the polling places page. The text is a little hard to read as it is.

6. Good point..
I'll try and fix the rollover color today sometime. Maybe red so it's not blue like the other text. Thanks. :)

3. Lookin good!

Like the layout and was easy to navigate around.

Only thing (and it may just be me :) ) was having the locations of polling places centered. I would of had it along the left maragin just cause its easier for me to look up.

Other than that looks great!!!

4. Very nice. Text is easy to read & all links appear to be working.
I'm on a cable connection & wonder how well your dial up users can use the site? Do you envision your members accessing your site from the road?

5. There are a lot of images..
But nothing too overly huge so dial up should be okay. I think there might be quite a few dial up users but it shouldn't take too long to load (minus maybe the Links page). As for on the Road, I'm not sure how many people would access it on the road but the same rules apply to how cable or dial up users would view it anyways.

8. Fixed it somewhat
Changed the links to hover - Red, and I right-aligned the polling places page (I tried left aligning it but it looked weird).

Hope that works better.

10. Awesome job RP...
Just took a quick glance - I'm still unpacking - but from what I saw, it's looks great! You rock. Winnebago County should be proud of their Dems.

NGU.

13. Very nice, Messiah - and I'm one of those dial-up users
I had no problems. The site loaded in a decent amount of time for those of us used to dial-up.

And as a semi-pro website builder myself, I think it looks awesome! I especially like the links to recent Dem news in your local paper and others. Very nice touch! Most county parties can't afford the time to make such regular updates.

Consider yourself bookmarked.
