My name is Elliott Giles, League President of the Youngstown Flag Football Association. I reside in Youngstown, OH. I started my website http://www.yffa.net in an attempt to make flag football in Ohio more fun and interactive for the players. I've gotten a lot of compliments over the years about the website from players and visitors cause I implemented video and photos to the site that keeps them coming back. But right now I want to rebuild my website to something the guys have never seen before for a flag football website. So any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Keep in mind, I never took a class or any private lessons to learn how to build websites. I learned it all by trial and error.

The site is http://www.yffa.net

Thanks in advance.

Not Bad. Your navigation is not so good in my opinion, your site looks a little to packed in and needs more room. I like your images and your video. I just have a hard time getting around. You do have some browser code errors you might want to clean up. They can be viewed here:

Oh boy, thanks for the PM IFFA. I now see the image has a "click here to register your child" button. But think of the next issue. How many others just like me are out there? And I think I pay attention to details, and I didn`t see the button the first time.

First off all, remove the borders of your tables. This is a website, not a word document. But I am not sure that is exactly what you should do. It just looks old. And I guess the website was not created 10 years ago.

You would think: heey, stop this, you know.... I am no pro. No designer. But that is why the net is full of open source/ cheap/ expensive , but all good looking content management systems. And most of them are also easy to use.

Just pick one, and your website will look more professional. This will insure a better feeling among the people who get in contact with your association.
