Public Website for Downloads

philj: Against the Crowd has gone silent but a number of us would like to see it relaunched. I am hoping that we can relaunch as a sister company and be able to amalgamate the two if ever Against the Crowd takes off again. Aug 22, 2021 16:26:18 GMT *

lmvox: Hi all, we didn't make the finals with our productions, I made the final for best actress for Digital Commute, so that's something. Here's to next year!!!! Nov 21, 2016 20:12:00 GMT

We have set up our public facing website. People will be able to download our productions from here via soundcloud, itunes etc.

A more sophisticated website, allowing direct downloads, could be created in due course.

The site is designed to be in keeping with our modern, minimalist, adult style but any comments or suggestions on it will be gratefully received.

Visit it now at againstthecrowdsite.wordpress.com/

The theme you chose almost seems a little too elegant or something, haha

I think the header/logo definitely needs to be smaller. It takes up the whole monitor when I first access the page!

Also, things should be done as pages instead of posts (like you have currently).
That way they are always in the same spot, and don't get pushed around when you add new content.

I'd hide the "Categories/Comments" stuff at the bottom of the page too. At this point it just clutters things.

Sorry if it seems like I'm being overly critical. I used to work in web/graphic design, so I can get picky, haha.

These are all good points. It's far from the finished article - I just wanted to get something up to play with. I didn't mean the logo to be so big but couldn't work out how to change it, and I didn't want all those menus at the bottom either but didn't know how to get rid of them. I'm happy for you to help sort it out as this isn't something I know anything about. I do want to keep it all on one page for now to minimise the number of clicks people need to do to find stuff. When we get more material we can use separate pages but there isn't much point now the content remains so sparse. I was going for a clean, elegant theme though. I don't want something with skulls and flying saucers floating across it.

Edit - And a big thank you to Cole for tidying it up for me. A man who clearly knows his way around a computer keyboard as well as a musical one.

I've just had a look at the website and I think it looks suitably attractive. It's enough to lure in people who might be interested and the promise of "more to come" and the option to sign up for updates should drum up some interest.
