It's time for a change!
10 November 2018Congress is coming up again! We submit a motion to revamp the house style and website. The current house style is corny and not suitable for social media. The website needs updating.
DWARS is an incredibly cool, young and energetic organisation. We deserve a wonderful website and a formidable corporate identity. Sign too!
Concrete areas for improvement
Just a few things that should be changed about the website, the primary place where the corporate identity is displayed:
- Far too complex logo that becomes unrecognisable on social media
- Green men, we're not Russians, are we?
- Illegible text over images.
- Primary introductory text is tucked away in the sideline.
- The activities (most important part of the site) cannot even be seen at first glance.
- Buttons misaligned.
- Links on pages are not recognisable as links.
- Headings of posts larger than the title of the article.
- Up to two news items to be seen at the same time on the homepage.
- No ability to translate texts into English.
Don't we have something better to do than update the corporate identity?
Yes indeed, we need to save the climate and protect the poor from multinationals! But fortunately we can multitask very well. We are going to change the Netherlands: with a good website and a nice house style to share our ideals.
Shouldn't we be talking about content instead of ourselves?
Content and presentation go together: only when you combine both does the message come across. With our corny website and corporate identity, we are reinforcing our grass-root image. We are a fresh, young and energetic party, and we deserve a website and corporate identity that reflects that.
