Hi everybody,
My marching band has given me the honors of designing a website. I am somewhat familiar with html, and css and flash. Even had some experience with php and database related websites ( I am definitely not an expert though). I really want to blow everybody away and make a fantastic website.
The band wants a site that explores the people. The people in the band and the people behind it.
I want to include video of some parades, and lots of music.
Does anybody have any good suggestions were to start, where to download, (or if necessary ‘buy’) great templates to start with?
Anyway, thanks for thinking with me.

Hi,

You sound like you know a fair bit about web design. I would go for something groovy and flash.

First idea that came to mind was take a big photo of the band together and then make an outline of everyone similar to this image:

Then use rollovers on the big picture that brings up more info on each person, the real picture not blacked out, likes/dislkies, what they play, fave song etc.

Just an idea

I agree about the flash, have an intro with the band photo, (actual or blacked out) and the rollover affect that danger geek mentioned.

For the design i would look including various instruments in it, do you have a uniform, possibly use this as a colour scheme?
