Re: Special News

I like the idea of a page where we can get quick updates of festival news without going to their links.

And in general, this page does not offer a "links" section like many sites do. People are always asking for the same links here so that might be a consideration for an improvement as well.

I'm sorry, I just made this more complicated, didn't I. I owe you a

I'm hacking up a table for this news item.

It will have festival logo, URL, location and date(2). Logo and URL will be clickable to take the reader to the festival's web site (if available).


I think we should have a more visible tie with the festival community without cluttering up the AM web pages with banners like many of the other radio web sites. I find that banners make those sites look like busy eyesores.

And Adblock (FF plugin) would nuke them.

Whilst you're hacking the home page, could you make the Station/Music/Concert news table headers clickable into that category? Can't tell you how many times I've tried to click on the header text, which is usually a sign to my inner designer that it's the obvious UI solution.
