So this is where the action is, eh!... Critique www.prayforpaul.com

[Hawk]

I posted this thread looking for some feedback and suggestions for a Ron Paul site I put up this last weekend. www.prayforpaul.com (http://www.prayforpaul.com)

http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=44988

It is a promotional site trying to get all those Christian conservatives on board with Ron Paul.

I would really appreciate feed back and suggestions as to how to promote it to that demographic. We need to get the Religious right turning out in favor of Ron Paul on election day!

Looks great, man. I'll pass it on to my undecided Christian friends.

Welcome Hawk!!!:)

[Hawk]

Thanks, man... :D :D :D

[mstrmac1]

Awsome!

[hambone1982]

I like the site a lot. Very cool.

[Hawk]

WOW!... Thanks you all I am glad everyone likes it. I know if Ron Paul gets like 10,000 + prayers from all over America it would be hugely news worthy for him so hit up that prayer book and Ron Paul Top site link.

yeah I can go to sleep smiling now :)

Nice site Hawk. It is really serene and informative and the biblical quotes with the issues are a nice way of tying things together. I'll add it to the links I send out.

[progrock]

very nice hawk!
just added to my bookmarks ^_^

[leipo]

Wow! Very professional looking site. I love that homepage picture!
I'm not a christian so i don't have any suggestions.

[xexkxex]

I have a suggestion.
After going to the site, a person might click on the truthallience.net link in the bottom left corner.

Well, after I did that, to look deeper into the people who put the site together, the jump took me to a site that had a t-shirt for sale saying that 9-11 was all lies with burning World Trade Towers on it.

Fix it.

This is just common sense. We want votes, not to scare people aware by giving them reasons to think that the media is right when they call us conspiracy loons.

My 2 cents.

Welcome Hawk!

I must say, that site looks even better than the official campaign site. Its very clean looking and the images are awesome. Not, that the official site is all that bad, but this one really stands out. By the way, this isnt THE Hawk from Buck Rogers is it?:D

Great looking site. One critique, though .... the opening sentence "Strength, resolve, charisma, and interest in your fellow man ... " is hard to read due to the background color there at the top part.

Yeah, i was just browsing thru the site and i clicked on that just now and had the same feeling. I understand it's affiliated but it could indeed scare people away.

Yes it is, only I got my eyebrows plucked and look a whole lot better now...HAHA :D You totally had that pic on your Hard Drive as a wallpaper didn't you LOL.

[axiomata]

Great site, and your willingness to remove the link at the bottom at the small chance that it may offend and turn off a potential supporters says a lot about you. Welcome to the forums.

[xexkxex]

I actually just out e-mails to my church friends.

I think only one of them would dig that deep....and he is smart enough to understand that people have their own thoughts on things.

He does not judge.

It's not hat big of a deal, since I see now that the items in the store rotate on the front page.

But, figured I would toss it out there. No worries.

Gorgeous site! I'll be sure to pass this along. Did you do that yourself?

I'd make sure all the text is easy-to-read. Like here, could use more contrast near the top of the black text:

but again, great, great site !!!

[Mark]

Nice!

[Hawk]

How is it now I made it full black?


better should I bold it?

Would be good to include videos to accompany the issues.

Another RP grassroots site has that going: http://www.ronpaulstances.com/

Might be able to find some good videos for each topic there.

Also, the long video of RP at the Pastors forum would be great to add. There's a thread on here somewhere with a link to a DVD iso. But also in the thread there's a link to a podcast version. It's just too long for youtube I think.

EDIT: here's the link http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=39183&highlight=pastors+forum

[Hawk]

All Right I have a few video's up there, Thanks for the feed back everyone!!!

Please promote the site to anyone you feel will benefit from it :)

Oh and Go Ron Paul!!!!

Awesome site. I love the bible verses with the issues.

[tikwanleap]

Wow! Great job Hawk!

Just a very small user interface suggestion:

The small scroll bar next to the content should be removed.

Instead the content should be part of the main page. If the content goes past the bottom of the window, then the user can easily scroll the page using the right most scroll bar.

Other than that small issue, it looks awesome! Thanks for helping out for Ron Paul! :)

[Hawk]

Awesome site. I love the bible verses with the issues.

Yeah I think that was the most enjoyable part about doing this site... finding relative versus to match the issues.

Though, now that I am starting to see peoples prayers for Ron Paul I do have to say they are down right inspirational. I really hope Ron gleans some sort of inspiration from everyone's kind words.
