My company, National Family Mortgage, is pleased to release version 2.0 of our website designed entirely with Coffee Cup VSD.
http://www.NationalFamilyMortgage.com
We’re a start-up, and I’ve have a really hard time entertaining the $5,000 -- $10,000 web design quotes we get from “professionals” when CC does a pretty fine job with a little elbow grease.
Please check out the site and let me know what you think. We’re open to all constructive comments to improve the site (but please, not our business model. We’re in a very unique niche.)
If anyone has any suggestions, there is one technical issue that’s troubling us. As some of you may have experienced, it appears limitations of the VSD program require all links on the site to be the same color, and underlined. In an effort to both get user attention and add some design element, we tried to make some important links “button like”. So, the call to action (link) is actually the button behind the text, and not the text itself. As a result, we had to make the buttons rather large, as when users hover over the text, the link appears to be dead. Users need to hover the mouse around the edges of the text, over the button, in order for the link to work. We’ve already received emails from frustrated folks claiming our links aren’t working. Any suggestions how we can maintain the design element while eliminating this problem?
Thank you for your help, CC community!
All the best,
Tim
