As longtime Mac users, we’ve been challenged. Not in the ‘special’ sense, but in the gauntlet sense. A challenge has been issued to build a better web site for Mac360.
If you’re not a graphics design or web site coding goddess or god, which Mac tools should you choose to do the job?
The challenge is not as easy as you might think. We want to build a better web site, but have some constraints. Like experience, knowledge, design expertise, and time.
What we have plenty of are a remarkable set of tools, applications.... (excerpted).

As a professional graphic designer who loves his Mac, Kate you’ve made wise choices. Fireworks can be a bear to master, but is well worth the effort in producing quality web images and with a rapid work flow. The Mac has a dozen or so very good color tools, but I prefer Color Scheme Pro to most. I have Shades for that one thing that CSP doesn’t do well, shades before and after a color. Good choices. Let us know how the work progresses.

I think it is important to consider consistancy and simplicity. Currently, the site seems a bit messy with links on both side of the articles. It would be nice to see such things as last 5 articles by a particular author in a drop down at the top of the site, or even a link in the left navigation for articles by author. Speaking of the navigation bar, it has far too many options in my opinion, and would serve the site better to simplify it a bit. But most importantly, I feel that everyone should get on the same page as far as user comments—some stories have comments, others can only be commented on in forums. Since Mac360 is very much a community, comments should be allowed on every article, instead of some articles segregating the comments away into the forums
That being said, I love the site, and though I don’t comment vry often, I do read every post on the site. Keep the good articles coming!
