Indeed there is :p But I wouldnt worry about it. I like the design and since I am not actually doing any work on it I shouldn't really be giving advice. I am glad that you have taken the initive and I think the website will be very helpful and producive for both new and future Fat members.

Thanks Jon. I'm just attacking the website on a visual level (which is obviously where I'm most comfortable). I've also started putting things together in dreamweaver, but find I have to comprimize my ideas a bit 'cause I don't know more than the basic stuff. Perhaps Camille and/or billy could take my images and 'web' them up, or I could get my buddy to do it...

Anyway, here is some more art for the site:

Hahaha!
I love the "bew bew bew" (like, the sound effect of that dot-dot-dot shooting)


EDIT: Oh, I really dig the drawings, too, Mike. I've never seen any footbag related drawings of yours (beside shirt stuff and that other shoe drawing, I think) My favourites are the second and third from the left. The third (looks like flurry) is RAAADDD -- sick shred pose! And I just really like the second...maybe because it really represents Camille? Like...it's totally her.

Wow, I rly like those pictures!! They look so damn good, awesome job Mike!!

Other than a message boards/bios what are some of the other ideas there were about articles? Because, couldnt those be written by other people, and then submitted to someone who would put them on the site? If so, then it would just get the ball rolling more...thoughts?

Alex, the idea for the site is that any one of us (club members including GTA friends) can upload content at any time. Pictures, videos, maps to shred spots (through google), articles or other info, comments, meeting times, items for sale. Ideally it will be a site that we can all update and keep fresh and relevant. Who has time to be a webmaster anyway.

Again, we should talk about all this more before we start, but my good friend builds these sort of complex, interatcive websites for a living, and is keen on doing this for us (once we know what we want). He can make all of our wildest dreams come true*.

On another note, is anyone free to play tonight at around 8? I have nothing better to do than play footbag, but at the same time cant think of anything I'd rather do... that doesn't involve disease-free sluts.

Let me know dudes and dudettes.




*Only those dreams relating to this website.

Grant me the power to decide who can be on Team Canada and I'll make a Team Canada jersey.

Another problem is that because the Jerseys will cost much more than your average tshirt, I will have to invest as much as a few thousand to get em printed (assuming they're popular).

I'm going to continue to let me shins heal up, but I'd like to film if a session does go down tomorrow. Is anyone besides Alex gonna show up?

Unless anyone else posts that they're going to show up tomorrow, I'm not going to bother, since I won't be playing anyway, and it would really suck for Alex if he came all the way out just to session alone.

People should post more so us posters know what to expect on FAT days :?



So no session unless someone else posts? Unless Alex wants to risk showing up and hoping someone else will too.

Yeah, sorry guys for the no-info.

I work today from 12-9 so I guess I'm missing this one.

Let me know if anyone wants a mid-week shred this week... I'd like to see you guys!

Alex:
If you need an extra ticket I might have one for you. If I do I'll put your name on it.

Adam: Probably Tuesday at 12:30 - 1:00. I'll let you know for sure tomorrow.

Alex, Adam, and anyone else who might be able to show up tomorrow at York:

4 isn't too bad, but I leave around 6 so it cuts into the super-long session. Adam, if you want, meet me at 3 at Vari Hall, or give me a call after 11:30 on my cell, (647) 505-7559. Alex, call me too, or come to Vari Hall at 4 and I will try and be there.

Let me know!

Hey Adam (or anyone else who may know), who's coming to the breakdance thing on Friday? Are any of those out-of-towners going to show for sure?

I was just thinking about how I would get out there and back home, and getting there is fine if I can get directions and bus numbers, or whatever, again, and if someone can meet me, but last time I got a ride home with Matt, so I would need directions and everything to get home again if there aren't going to be people driving in my direction.

Toronto is too big for me and I'm still not used to subways and not being able to walk everywhere if I happen to get lost.


(Actually, even driving with Matt and Mike, we totally had no idea how to even leave the campus and needed to get, like, 4 different sets of directions from a gas station...) I'm scared of getting lost :(
