Hi McLovin!
I love the front page. The only suggestion I have is to add a bio and more information about Jason on the home page of his WebSite? As he gathers more fans, that will probably be the most important thing that they are looking for besides when his concerts are, his music, and such. Having his information on the home page will help them to get to know him better. It doesn't have to be in depth personal stuff, just enough to give them an insight to who he is.
When his first CD/song is released, alot of fans won't even know that he came from AI. They will just know that he is a new musician that they like :}
BTW: I love what you guys have done with the forums. They are awesome and I am starting to learn my way around.
Pam

That's a great idea, Pam. I know that I often don't venture into the forums of a site for a while, and I can't be the only one. That would give potential fans a way to learn more about Jason without having to wade into the madness.

A bio would be nice. There should also be a picture of Jason on the frontpage. I love the chair but new Jason fans need to know they are in the right place.

A bio and pic are great ideas for new folks, especially if they don't know Jason from "Idol."

Agree about the BIO; Love the chair pic though, it's SO Jason.

Is there a way to get to the Front page from the forums? If not, I'd like that ability.

I would like that too. It's on my list, Hanna. Thanks for the nudge. Hopefully we can get that.

I love the front page. I'm not sure who did the graphics (Betsy?), but they are great. The songwriter pad, pen and guitar resting against the empty chair were perfect when the site was "coming soon". Now the site is open, so we need Jason in that chair! I love the "I am second" photos and I think the one with Jason sitting would be perfect on the chair.
I also would love to see a bio about Jason. Betsy is a wonderful writer, and she knows Jason better than anyone! I would love to see a "growing bio" ... like a memory lane where each month she adds little anecdotes, photos,etc of Jason starting when he was young and continiung "thru the years". It would be something that would keep people coming back for new stuff. She could call it "from diapers to dreadlocks" LOL

I agree with a lot of the above. I really think a well thought out picture of Jason would help people know they are in the right place and maybe touch their hearts at the same time. A picture says a thousand words and so I love the chair, guitar etc., but it is missing the human element. Now we need Jason there. Also, when in the forums I'm not sure how to get back to the front page.

Hey - check the top. We've added a button that says "Front" that will pop you to the main page.

Can you hear Jason now "Just keepin it Real!" I too thought that he needs a picture of him on the front page, but I thought that maybe the empty chair was until he was done with the tour kinda like 'he's away right now' I do love the I am Second photos but another idea would be to include his cd photo covers (of course I'm jumping ahead here) and/or have some updated photos from time to time.

Hey - check the top. We've added a button that says "Front" that will pop you to the main page. Yay! #cheer# had been wondering how to get back there from here, thank you! I love the front page, totally love the design & picture and all that incorporates - I think that picture and take on things is still good/apt, given that Jason is still in the writing/recording stage of his career right now. Besides, he's there himself sitting in the chair in the fanclub section -haha that was a nice surprise I did think the news was scrolling a bit fast too, but I've discovered you can stop it still, by putting your mouse/cursor over the box - so, it's easy to control really and I'm ok with that now. I think a biog would be a good idea too, I'm not really a fan of 3rd party style biogs though. I'm rather partial to Jason writing stuff for himself, like the one he wrote on MySpace. I love that it came straight from his own mind & heart, that it just felt so very genuine and sincere. I like that the focus was on his love of music and his aspirations for his songwriting. It told me all I needed to know about Jason's character and increased my interest in keeping a look out for his future music for sure! I'd love to see more in media in terms of good quality live performance footage and maybe other Jason video footage - and of course more music - but that's to look foward to still Front Page = beautiful, kudos to everyone involved #blowingkiss#
