So been asking around a little online, i want to help us get a New Site (and help Shryke get some free time)

This is what i was told:

If you get a backoffice developed than you are able. I suggest you make a sketchup of the site using free tools in the internet and write a simple design for a start (functionality wise ) from there we can move on and find someone who will do it for very cheap using fiverr for example

Then i was guided to this site, which looks easy to use. I suggest a few of us come up with a basic design then we can vote on the best look. Im going to start mine tonight. I was hoping regulars like Chien, surfer, boosh or banks could pitch in.

As for fiverr- we all know about crowdfunding right?

Cmon fellas, lets get the ball rollin'!!!!

So what's the next step? Who here has the programming experience to get the ball rolling? I'd be happy to contribute to the cause, but I know nothing about building websites.

Shryke- that link i posted is a sketchup tool.

It allows you to make a mock up version of a web site- not an actual wbesite!

When completed, we can post the mock version to a person who works in fiverr (a freelance website design place or something) who will be able to complete our website - with the mock look - for a cheap price.

After that we will know more about how to maintain etc.

So to get the ball rolling- lets paint a picture of what the website could look like using:

Building a website isn't the hard part. Someone could figure out how to do whatever you want pretty much on something like Squarespace. The problem is getting the game on the website. I don't know how difficult it is to do that. We need THAT person. Otherwise, it isn't really an upgrade from this board.
