Site makeover / new name?

[El Gordo]

Greetings All

This website needs a makeover.

It's not really changed since December 2001, when I first decided it would be a good idea to log my progress towards the FLM finish line. It was created as a motivational tool for me, then gradually morphed into something else that I can't quite put my finger on.

But I'm thinking about changing the look and feel of the site, and it's because we have something of a burgeoning community here that I want to gauge the opinion of others. According to the stats, the number of unique visits per day is increasing quite dramatically. A year ago the site was being visited by just 30 different computers each day. Now it's about 200, and increasing.

I'm desperate to get rid of the HTML frames. If you don't know what this means, don't worry. Think yourself fortunate. But it will help solve some of the screen space issues that I know some people have.

But other stuff: I've toyed with the idea of changing the name. A few months ago I mused on starting a running theme park called Plodderama, then I thought of changing the name of the site to Plodderama.com. I then forgot about it. I just started thinking about it again. Would this alienate non-plodders?

I think we should do more with the calendar.

I need to rationalise the menus.

I need to update the links and add some new items. I've got a few plans in this area, but any ideas would be welcome.

I need to do more with photos. I need to do a lot of things.

If anyone has any comment or ideas, I'd be interested. If I don't get any, that's no problem - I will be making some changes in any case.

Thanks in advance

Andy
