We'd like to take over the design of the site certainly but saying that we'd need
to maintain strong consulatation with everyone involved. We'd be good at the
graphics design side of it overall presentation and HTML coding. As well as ideas.

do server side web-design at the moment.

For everyone here, remember that this is YOUR site. It should reflect the
personality of the group and the community spirit so we'd need people here to
comment on the design and test it.

We have ideas about the graphic design - adding a more human face to it all with
photos and artwork that reflects people. When surfers arrive they must feel as
though there in a place where there are real people and not just in the middle of a
big electronic project. It needs to be a place that everyone can identify with.

Lastly on this subject. The most successful sites are the ones which are dynamic.
Which change as time passes to reflect the organisation involved. Comments and
ideas from everyone here should be maintained. Basically it's up to everyone to
decide whether this icon looks right or that heading should explain itself in
another way and so on.

It really is under heavy construction - this is our busiest time of year
commercially read for the new term (semester) in September so please don't add the
link right now.
