Re: Would you take a complimentary course on HTML from acompany whose website looked like this?

Well Aaron - since I'm in the band - I'll leave it there.

Go get another cuppa, my friend!

To be blunt, the site is ugly (sorry if anybody is associated with the
group). Color palette is ALL over the place. Logo needs work. Beveled
edges are for the 1990's...

On the flip side, maybe nobody in the band cares about the look of the
website. But on that note, eventually you will want to attract the next
generation, and THAT generation is picky about what things look like before
they embrace.

I'll put myself out on a limb - here's the link - http://www.ihcb.org

Looks like a nice, clean site - clean code. Like something a musician
would put together. Or, maybe I'm just being nice because I have a great
appreciation for music and bands.

I know there are some things not quite as I'd like them but did not have
time to figure out more. Be gentle, please!!

Oh - it took time and some help, but it seems to work pretty well in
most browsers. Whew!!

I've created some web pages that look decent...but I did it by surfing

the web until I found a page design that I liked/wanted and tried to mimic
it best I could.

With enough training and the right tools, I think most RPG/COBOL

developers could make respectable web pages. The questions to me are: How
much training? What kinds of training? What kinds of tools? Will your
RPG/COBOL developers even want to be retrained as web developers? When does
it become more practical to hire web developers than to retrain RPG/COBOL
developers?

Plus, professional web developers work full-time learning the art of

making great web pages. RPG/COBOL programmers won't have the same amount of
time to devote to learning the art of creating web pages. That may always be
a handicap when it comes to developing award-winning designs.
