Templates

Imagine your pictures and Event Information

Each of the templates shown below are a sample of what is out there. Each one will need to be modified to fit your specifications. For example, a template for house maintenance needs all the pictures updated to be your own volksmarch pictures. Each task needs to be written with your functions in mind.

If it is hard for you to picture how the site would look with your stuff on it, let us know and we will do a quick build of the site with your stuff. Of course, you will have to provide your stuff, such as your club logo, pictures of your events, etc. Creating your initial site will take some time, and once it is up and running it will take time and effort on your part to insure the content stays fresh and up to date.

If none of our samples call out to you, feel free to search the entire Internet for 'free responsive templates' and it will be an opportunity for you to spend countless hours looking and imagining and deciding what will work for you. A good site for free HTML templates is Theme Wagon. If you want us to do the work for you, a template you download should only be HTML and CSS. Do not select WordPress, Joomla, flash, or others.

So, scroll down and explore our different samples. First up are some of my current sites for you to explore. These templates are available for you. Also don't forget, I won the 2019 Publicity Award for Best Web Site. That category has now been eliminated because the IT guys were jealous of me.


Woodland Wanderers

The Woodland Wanderers web site has a video background for the home page, with a photo background if the screen is not large enough to play the video. On the right is the menu button. Scroll down and find a place for extensive text and perhaps a video or two. Continue down with multiple boxes to highlight important events or clubs. As you scroll you can click on the lower right corner up arrow and return to the top of the page. Show Template

Making Photos Work

To manage photos on your web site, they need to be manipulated. Most digital cameras record their photos in terms of 'MegaPixels'. This format is really too large to effectively display on a web site. You need software to make it smaller, to make thumbnails, and you need HTML and CSS to display the photos in different ways.

Hover Effects

Not a stand-alone template, but some code that allows you to emphasize photos when the mouse pointer goes over them, including a text popup. Can be included into any of the templates. Show Template Download
