Greg, I like all the skiing features you've designed, but I think there's too much text on your skiing page. Well then again, I think text is good but you should spice up each category with an icon.

Hmm. Neat Idea. I'll fool around with something later.

Thanks for the suggestion. Keep 'em coming!

I'm in agreement. I like the site design very much. Simple and clean. But it could use some more excitment. I'd suggest taking some of our favoriate pictures from the gallery or elsewhere and formatting them for the homepage in an area. Then take the most popular sections, like the form and make some nice graphical image links/buttons/icon whatever looks good. Then rotate the images as you click to the site.

Great job and thank you Greg. You are a shining example of someone who can open himself up to suggestions, then take them with an open mind and accept the good ideas.

Thanks for the kind words, Josh. I'm really satisfied with the way the site looks currently. Much of the recent design changes and content is in direct response from user ideas or other feedback.

Feedback is always welcome. Keep it coming!
