On August 20th, Key Administration celebrated a milestone by hosting a ‘Website Launch Event’. First I want to thank everyone that participated!
As everyone gathered on the call, the purpose of this event was to provide input and criticism on every and all aspect of the site. And let me tell you, everyone was eager to give their two cents which was GREAT! I learned so much on that call and can’t wait to start tweaking all of the suggestions which included:
- too much white space; althought a lot of white space is what I wanted, the vote was unanimous, there seems to be too much especially when viewing the site on a widescreen! Suggestions were to incorporate some colour in the header and/or sidebars
- my picture under Chantal Livingstone requires padding
- spelling and rewording was corrected live on the call
- service sublinks should possibly be permanent in left sidebar
- add a link to the launch special directing visitor to the service page
- too much info in footer
- I do want to have a horizontal navigation menu in the future and insert my mission statement in the left sidebar in the navigation’s place
Most suggestions have been tended to however the colours will take me a few days. I will keep everyone posted with updates!

Well after playing with colours and code, adding contrast to the sidebar just isn’t an option. It’s honestly hideous! Maybe I don’t have the right shades but it simply wasn’t working. I’ve added blue vertical lines to separate the sidebars from the main content.
I do however want to find a nicer header and maybe tweak my logo. I’m sure a more colourful image will brighten up the site!
