I know GAF loves these, never thought I would be posting one.
Let me preface this by saying I'm not asking anyone to fix or edit or create anything for me. Im simply seeing if theres any basic adjustments or reccomendations that I may have overlooked or not thought of.
Currently my Girlfriend is in charge of creating her schools first IOOB confrence (Industial Organizational Organizational Behavior). They don't have much of a budget so the team has built their own website.
Then I got a look at it yesterday, and I couldnt help but tell them how much needs to be fixed.

For starters their logo looks like (and quite possibly is) WordArt. Now I know a thing or two about logo and site creation so I put down a few sketches and offered her some logo concepts. They are not going to be a company, and this is a one time event, so they aren't putting any real money into it. Thus the simple nature of the designs I've made.
Seemingly they want a basic Font styled Logo, and so the following is the one they have settled on. (These are just Illustrator fonts currently, I wanted them to pick one before I actually made it). Yes I know, I'm not the greatest designer, but it is free, and will at least be vector art.
Before
After
These are the other options I put together last night.
Now onto the website. I circled the first ten things I would change.
There's a ridiculous amount of odd things going on. Strange unprofessional fonts and inconsistent colors, the awful logo, a random powerpoint like button to return to the top of the page and a scrolling header image with graphic transitions.
I suggested nixing their current banners which looks like cut and pasted photos, and gave her a couple of basic images to work with until they get a nicer photo of the city, and or the school to use. (Just photo's Ive taken from Griffith park)
Anything ese I'm missing? Thought some of you might get a kick out of the site, since it looks like it was built a decade ago.
