What's going on everybody, just found you guys and I'm glad to be a part of the forums. I put together an FIU Fan Site that I'd like for you guys to check out and give me feedback on. Along with our official site, it's nice to also have some Fan Sites where we can really interact and make the site how we want it to be, so any feedback is appreciated. Let me know what you guys think! Thanks www.fiupanthers.comor www.fiu-panthers.com

Looks good Slimshorty2k1. Welcome to the board. I think you should work with the moderator of this board (FIUPantherFan) and put together both of these sites. That is a great homepage you have there.

I really like it... good job. I think the top banner is well designed... just one little thing that I noticed. Shouldn't the "Panthers" part of the banner not be covered by the pic of the player.. maybe some transparency on the player would do the trick.
As for the message board... I think the design you chose is easier on the eye (since it has more color contrast), but... I think we should just have one main board & this one should be it since its been around for a while. Maybe your link could point to this address. Better yet, we can simpy apply the design of your board to this one... just a thought.

Thanks a lot guys, I really do appreciate all of the positive responses towards the site and it's potential. 2006peeradvisor, I changed the header a bit, placing the FIU Players BEHIND the letters, let me know what you think. I made the player transparent, but it just didn't look right for whatever reason, so I gave this a shot instead, let me know if you think it looks better. Again, any feedback is highly appreciated, and I am not one to get upset about, "constructive criticism." Let's get this going! Again, thanks a bunch!

Great job on the fan site, it looks really, really nice! Very sleek. As suggested by others, maybe we can combine the two chat forums and get this board up to date like yours as well. I think it'd be a really great idea to get two great fan sites together under one sleek look.
GO PANTHERS!!

Kevin, that is a great idea, and we should definitely see what we can all do to go about accomplishing this. As many have mentioned to me, one of the things that programs with large fan bases have in common are several resources and websites. More fan sites = more support. I'm hoping to put my 2 cents into getting the ball rolling and expanding our fan sites, with the help and support of those interested. I am sure we all want the FIU Fan Base to eventually be among the largest in the country, and to do this we have to work together. Being a student at FIU, I am looking into designing some flyers to post in the Graham Center, and areas like that, where our websites are visible to those walking by. I personally had to hunt for this site through the search engines, so any extra thing to expose our online community is certainly a plus.

Your site does look great, all you need is some advertising (search engines, MySpace, Facebook) to drum up more activity. Next thing you know, you got a winner. This forum has largely grown through self advertising and word of mouth, some real promotion on a professional looking site like yours would really launch it.

Your site looks awesome. Your URL is much more intuitive. Let's combine your site with this site's larger audience. Together, there's a winning combination.
