Tell us about YOUR public web site

Let's help new site designers find some inspiration for their public Groupanizer pages.  If you have created a public site, please post a link along with a brief description of the theme you used and your experience with it.
Please do not hijack the thread with questions - start a new thread for that.

The HeartOfMaryland.org site

The HeartOfMaryland.org site is built on the Anstin - BlogBuzz II theme.
I chose the theme for the top-menu (vs side menu) and the left-hand sidebar.  It is a very simple theme to get started with, although the lack of configurable options is somewhat restrictive.

The Good:

  • Simple to use - no changes needed by the Groupanizer admins.
  • Very minimal table formatting works well with my custom views.
  • Reasonable number of regions

The Bad:

  • Very few configuration options, only three color schemes, for example.
  • Doesn't have all of the regions I need.
  • "Designed By" link hard-coded at the bottom of every page is lame.  Most of the other themes don't do this.

Other than the BlogBuzz theme, my site also uses some custom views to show things like the upcoming events calendar. These are not part of the built-in Groupanizer calendar.

Also, just a reminder - while many choirs and choruses have technically/graphically inclined folks inside who want to create their own public site, if you need a public site and don't have that kind of resource, Groupanizer can create a customized site for you - click here to learn more.
