Sometimes it's best to do a little simplicity... What I have done is the entire site design I'm working on is entirely made through CSS styling, and if the CSS all of a sudden disappeared, it would be very easy to navigate through the website  B)

This is the only preview you all are getting. I will be submitting a design. :)



Trust me, it'll look better once you see the design I'm perfecting ever so slightly.

The gradient I added adds some spiffiness when thrown into my layout... I'm almost done... How do I go about submitting this? Also, I will not be submitting a slogan. I like the slogan the way it is.

Here's what I was thinking for a logo/slogan:

My super-awesome website!

Don't think of it as a competition. No single person is going to decide the winning design. Just do your best!  B)

Billy, that looks fantastic! It will be entered into the contest.  :biggrin:

I may try to design something for the site but I haven't had a chance. So I figure ill enter my slogan for now.
TWC Today Slogan:
Bringing You The Best Of The Weather Channel From Yesterday and Today!

Thats a little long so you could go with:
The Best Of The Weather Channel From Yesterday and Today!

Very nice Al! I like it! The only problem I have with it is the slogan. It doesn't communicate that TWCT is no longer covering just today's TWC.

If TWCT covers everything TWC, then will we see classic footage on this site too?

I take it you haven't been paying attention to this part of the forum lately.  :D

The answer is yes. As a result of the recent turn of events over at TWCC, TWCT will now be doing classic TWC as well. I've got lots of plans up my sleeve, but the first thing I need to get done is a new site design and slogan. Once all that is in place, I'll be rolling out the classic content. 

Contributions, by the way, are welcome.
