Suggestions and feedback Bangalore Praja website Review

We are working to upgrade this site to have following new features

- A new 'theme' for better look and feel and navigation

- A 'group' based design so that we can support more cities and easily provide online presence to active citizen's groups

- A restructured home page for Bangalore site to give exposoure to active as well as new content

We dont have the luxury of separate site or teams for testing purposes. But we are doing our best to make sure that site upgrade work doesn't impact readers and authors.

If you encounter any 'defects' or problems using or navigating the site, please email us via the contact form, or simply leave a comment here.

cheers,

Praja Admin Team

Thanks santsub, will contact you with details.

Folks, actually, we need lots of help. Some on technical side, and a lot on operating the site - moderating, tracking local bodies (Ex: watch BBMP/BMRC sites and posting updates). A call for hep will follow once this current round of site work is over.

 

 

my take..

1. Top Banner needs to be spruced up..the old one was good

2. Font guess is Times New Roman..think the old ariel was good

3.some how the allignment has gone awry..I see the laft nav and the right nav only and the content is rt at the bottom

4.should there be a file upload feature?

Rolled back for now

Sri, and others, we have rolled back site 'theme' changes due to discovery of a late breaking problem seeing the site in IE 6. Our stats tell us that about a third of our readers use IE 6, and thats too big a number to ignore.

Thanks for your patience folks, and sorry for the trouble. stay tuned, we will keep the site operational even while we work on upgrades this week.

I can help
