Web Critique: Street Level Org
Design:
YEa! I new type of design for the front page!!!! Exciting !
Very simple and flashy and to the point.
Layout:
Instead of tabs there are video activated tabs that grab your attention and with one easy click you are to the area you wish to be looking at in the the website.
Unlike some of the sites we have looked at it seems to have a unified look no matter what link you enter.
Because(for the most part) you have to go back to the original page to get to the other links...I think it would be helpful to have tabs in each of the four main links that lead you to the other links or have this flash plug in at the top or bottom of each link to link you to the other links.
Content:
All the content is there...there are four links to choose:Programs, About Us, Media, and Get Involved.d
It is fascinating because the links actually open and look like a typical website. with their own tabs for detailed information. ...but I really like the break down of knowledge distributed to us. The only thing is that it seems that for the most part you have to go back to the opening page in order to get to the other main links.

Web Critique: Mess Hall
Design:
Eye Catching...and organized-looking...but is it really organized???. Images are not random...but create interest. There are no tabs up top to deepen your search. You have scroll down and really look at the opening page to find links to what you are interested in.The colors are simple but draw attention to necessary areas.
Layout:
I have grown accustomed to the boring tab up top routine but I do like that for easy access...so I wish the mess hall would use that method too. Although eye catching it isn't as easy to navigate as other websites we have looked at.
Content:
All the content is there if you are willing to snoop around and look for it. You can find out how to get there by CTA, there is a calendar of event, you can get more information on workshops, there are random links that you won'tt know what they are about until you click on them and you can find out what the Mess Hall is really about. I especially really like the link that leads to the web showing what the mess hall is all about.
I kind of think that should be on the opening page though.

Web Critique:
Design:
Ugh...the design is a total bore. Really boring that I don't really want to explore the site.
There are images when you enter the tab areas but nothing on the front....it is an artist site and you would never tell by the look of it.
Layout:
The layout is typical with tabs to explore details of the site. The front page is reallyreally lacking.
Content:
BUT the content is so fascinating!!! I live two blocks from pilsen and love the community...and have never heard of this organization. Because the meat and heart of the website is of interest to me I will definitely follow it.
