Justo8484 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 unfortunately, the site is still going to look like filth... Quote
skifreak Posted September 12, 2005 Author Report Posted September 12, 2005 I know, I wish they would at least change the templet or something. I never liked it from day one... Quote
Finndog Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 unfortunately, the site is still going to look like filth... 32807[/snapback] A bit outdated and horrible to navigate???? Quote
Justo8484 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 A bit outdated and horrible to navigate???? 32854[/snapback] pretty much right on, but you forgot to mention painful to look at Quote
Finndog Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 pretty much right on, but you forgot to mention painful to look at 32864[/snapback] come on' you don't like lame colors and cheezy graphics? I do love the camera though, props there! Quote
Justo8484 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 they impressed me, the site is up before they said it would be. its still kind of ugly, but definately an improvement over last year's Quote
skifreak Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Posted September 15, 2005 Well its better than last year. Quote
skifreak Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Posted September 15, 2005 Nastar Races every Thursday night & Sunday afternoon (check our Calendar of Events for dates & times). Sweet! Found it under 05/06 features. If you look under the calendar of events you will see it is going to take place on Raceway. Quote
tretiak Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 A new Zaugg Pipe Groomer will make our half-pipe better than ever. no only if they would groom the pipe more then once a month it would be a great improvement. Our 2 terrain parks, Sidewinder Park & Terrain Run, have been TOTALLY REDESIGNED to provide skiers and riders with two of the most thrilling terrain parks in the area. will they actually have lips and decent landings?? who knows?

ThinkSnow Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 Well... the site is definitely a ton better than it was! A step in the right direction. Quote

Finndog Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 (edited) can anyone explain why the trail maps are under "Conditions" and not under "mountain"? The sub nav bars are too small. This site looks like it was done by a high school kid for a school project. Very cookie cutter, prefab looking. Not much better other than the colors. Edited September 15, 2005 by Finndog Quote
Papasteeze Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 I added a ton of stuff from their events page to our calendar. There seems to be some conflicting information regarding PARA races or it maybe it is just too early to be posting info from all of the various sites.. Please let me know if you find any of the information to be innacurate or just plain screwed up. Thanks!!! Quote

poconoceancity Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 I'm old and I look at it Quote
Glenn Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 Much better... Maps under conditions... I think many mountains do that so you can compare what is open to what is available. Quote
Finndog Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 atleast there is not bright yellow on the webpage.i think it looks great plus mostly its the younger generation looking at the site not as much the older generation. 33057[/snapback] So the younger generation knows that the trail maps are under the wrong section and the older just knows to go where they are suposed to be, right? Every other ski resort has the trail maps uner the mountain section , I can't find one that has them under conditions. The overall look is improved but appears to be made from a template design, what's that got to do with age? It sounds like you are saying younger people don't appreciate a well-designed site. I strongly disagree, in fact, the younger user is more in tune with modern design and navigation. Statistically, younger users are more likely to bail on a site that has poor navigation. Yer point was what? Learn something and think before you post Quote

Glenn Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Just for sake of example... http://www.jfbb.com/winter-jf-trail-maps.aspx Both trail maps and conditions SAME page. Where they are located in the menu's is open for discussion, however you can make a REASONABLE argument for trail map's under the 'conditions' heading. I don't think the site looks great but it doesn't LOOK bad either. They got rid of the old color scheme and things look a little cleaner. The menu sucks (even disregarding the trail map issue). It just a lousy interface. My biggest qualm is they didn't seem to add any content. Oh well, they tried right? Either way I'm greatfull for the new color scheme. Quote
