» Homepage layout & system
Posted by Bernhard Altvater on 13.10.2009 16:37

Hi everybody!

We're just about to work over the whole homepage set up by Tristan a couple of years back. But since the club is based on volunteers, so is the homepage. And compared to the enormous effort Tristan put in to make it work as it is, we don't have the capacity to do everything alone within a reasonable time.
This is where we need help with most tasks like creating a new layout, page structure, updating content, programming, documenting and testing functions, moving to another cms-system, improving the user-interface, ...

Tasks can be as little as a couple of hours like making suggestions for the new layout, creating the page structure, filling a page with content, ... where no technical skills are needed. Or tasks which need html & css, php or MySQL skills for coding and testing.

If you think you can spare some time and motivation to help us we're happy to hear from you -webadmin@unswoc.org-

Cheers Bernhard

Hi Everybody!

Get excited about the first club BBQ for session 2!

Free Snags and dollar beers, but only if you turn up at 5:30pm on Tuesday 24th July at the Sam Cracknell Pavillion. Put it in your diaries/planners/phones/on the back of your hand - so you don't miss out on finding out what the club has in store for you in semester 2.

Bring your friends, make some new ones and have the good times!

Cheers,

Blake Bambrook
UNSWOC Activities Officer
