[NFB-DB] New look of nfbdeaf-blind.org is now live!

[Scott Davert]

I do see what others are saying, it's a generic NFB page. That said, it's a starting point. It would be good if there was a way to pay dues online instead of by check to start with. Maybe put up meeting minutes, especially for the things that happened at convention, and what about posting names and bios of the current board? I think these could be good starting proints and also give the general membership more of an idea of what's happening. There was a meeting in Orlando in July: what happened? There were things voted on to amend the constituition, shouldn't that be public info? I'm not trying to pick on anyone here, I'm just offering ideas of things that Iink would be good to have on the website to help keep people informed. If there is enough activity, you may find that more people will desire to join and get involved. This email is not intended to offend anyone, I do apologize if it came off that way. I'm just trying to help.

Take care,
Scott

Going forward, there will be some tweaking of the site to improve the layout, and to add additional pages and features. Please review at your earliest convenience. If there is something that should be added, or isn’t working, please report them to President Alice Eaddy at president at nfbdeaf-blind.org and she will pass the information along to me.
