    New website

    See here.

    Still not great - no June results in yet, no linked in match report from the results page, needs a YouTube insert on the homepage and the link to the league table goes to a horrendously formatted FAI page - but a big improvement.

    Just clicked onto it there...wow its WAY better than before. Glad that shower is no longer running our site.

    Has the potential to be one of the best in the league. Needs updating obviously, but on first glance I'm well impressed.

    Aesthetically it looks good, miles better than anything we've had before.

    Looks the same to me. Has anyone a screenshot?

    I've Ctrl+F5ed and cleared the cache.

    It looks slick and professional. Massive improvement astethically on the old site. Reasonably easy to navigate too. Well done to all involved.

    Schumi, I've emailed you a screenshot.

    If they've moved server, it can take a while for that to propagate, so some people see the new site, some the old. If that's it, there's nothing you can do about that but wait.

    Were you involved with testing the old one? If so, did you ever set up a custom hosts file?

    I think every site has that potential in fairness!

    I'm not; I can't update it any more... But yeah, it does seem to be a new crowd alright. Hopefully this one works out well. Our fourth web company in six years?

    I have it now, that must have been it.

    No, and I don't know what that is!

    I'm impressed! The top of the front page looks excellent. The menu is good, the upcoming fixtures list is good, getting to news stories is a bit fiddly and there are a few missing but that can be fixed I assume. The youtube link is a nice touch too, views on that Longford game have jumped today!

    The background changing to white half way down is a bit odd and the results page needs improvement but these shouldn't be hard to fix.

    If you click on the video on the top right when it's playing, it opens the youtube page.

    Not relevent now, as you can view the site, but it's a way to skip the conversion of the name of the site into the address of the server it's on - handy in testing. If you had made one for the old site, you'd have been left skipping to the old site when the site moved server.

    Do you use flashblock or a similar firefox add on? Send me a screenshot.

    Got John83's reply, so I'll retract the YouTube link comment. Also can't see the rolling news, which is wierd. Looks much better with the correct IE!

    How come it's the Longford video up? Is that because the new UCDAFCTV channel was started this year, whereas the website seems to link into UCDsoccervideo? Might need to get that changed if so.

    Isn't that the same template as the LOI site? Looks class nevertheless.
