Problems/Ideas/Suggestions for www.teaparty07.com

[LJHudd]

I understand this has probably been asked a hundred times today (so sorry) but... if someone can let me know...

Is the site still down? I can't get to it and I'm seeing the web address plastered all over Ron Paul supporter sites. I just wonder if I'm not the only one, how many people aren't able to sign up because it's down. We've tried cleaning the cache etc. Nothing.

The video's and all the hard work for this so far looks amazing, I can hardly wait, I'll be giving more than I did on Nov 5th.

I just would like to see Dr Paul's name a bit more prominently displayed.

Ron Paul's Tea Party 07 just sounds better to me than simply Tea Party 07.

Agreed!

So, to re-phrase everything you said:
1. "Ron Paul's Tea Party 07" instead of "Tea Party 07"
2. Replace the face icon w/ the flyer icon. (have a link?)
3. To the Right of the scroll, place the count-down timer & link to count-down script. Will this fit on smaller sized screens?
4. Add a graph the number of subscribers below the count-down timer.
5. "In a box with a hairline red border, white fill set at like 80% transparency, put your disclaimer from the bottom about only donating at the official campaign site in black letters."
6. Thin bar across the very top of the page with the suggested links: Official Campaign, MeetUps, RP Library, etc.

I like all of the above ideas, though not sure about the flyer icon because I havn't seen it.

yeah I wasn't crazy about that profile pic either but its the only one i came across that would really work. go ahead give me the link to the flyer icon and ill work in what you suggested. I'll post on here once its done to see what everyone thinks.

1st suggestion -
I suggest Trevor we a referral system for teaparty07.com whereby referral links would be supported. You could then have a display on the page of the people who have referred the most friends.

sort of makes it a little fun side contest to see who can refer the most people to the tea party donation drive.

2nd suggestion -
I suggest you have an American flag or two"above the fold" on teaparty07.com, perhaps "hanging" vertically flanking one or both sides of the parchment paper.

Scroll down to look at the photo above the Sirberus Icon... maybe we can shrink that down some...

My fiat $0.02:

A. In the top left of the scroll put "Ron Paul's" (in the same manner the "Freedom Is Popular" is placed at the bottom of the scroll; maybe even remove the face image from the bottom--that looks a little goofy--and place the profile icon at the top by his name: the icon that appeared on the teaparty07.com fliers).


What about "The Official Ron Paul" instead of "Ron Paul's" on the top fold?

what about this?

The absolute best video, without any doubt, (check out the newest video thread for confirmation) is this new video:

100% agree, this vid should be up there beyond a shadow of a doubt!

It probably be best to keep the site simplistic in its message. Even displaying no videos would be great.

This isnt an opportunity to show off others work. Just a website to have who sign up for our presidential candidate one donation drive. Trying to focus the work onto another would be a counter productive.

Right now, if you Google "teaparty07", the .org site comes up first, ahead of the .com site.

Any ideas how to remedy this?

 

[Paulite5112007]

have the .org site jump to .com?

No mention of the 15th/weekend

This needs to be better linked with the activities of the 15th, bother literally and figuratively. Obviously that will have its own site, but the two should drive each other, not exist in parallel.

Sorry, I gotta disagree...this one:

http://www.youtube.com/v/KKC6RjLajdg&rel=1

(Which, incidentally was made by a Fifteen-Year-Old) cannot be overplugged. This looks like some seriously professional work.

The moneybomb sites themselves should be more emotive than substantive...we're not selling people on the idea of Ron Paul there, we're selling the choir on donating money.

what about this?

Exactly what I had in mind!

 

[Brad Zink]

Teaparty07.com is a great webpage. My only suggestion would be to add these two videos:

Tea Party 07:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-3M2D3V94M

Fiat Empire:

That is beautiful! Wow, I'm so glad I can see the site now and the video on there is my favorite one.

have the .org site jump to .com?

No worries, we've been contacted and the owner is a supporter. He's been given the feedburner code and currently linking to the .com site. Should be linking fully once DNS propagation more or less complete.

Please keep the suggestions coming...

this video needs to be on the site.

Please, please include the famous "Ron Paul - a New Hope" video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG2PUZoukfA
This video gives me goose bumps every time I watch it, and would be a wonderful introduction of Ron Paul to mainstream voters, who don't know much of what he stands for.
