For me personally, if we get the RSS fixed and I can plus TyronePA to appear on MyYahoo page, all is good for me. I'm not sure modeling it like "wearecentralpa.com" is all that better. I find that site to be too busy to be useful, and especially SLOW. Keep in mind, TyronePA.com isn't a front for a newspaper or television station, it is oriented around the town of Tyrone.
I'll agree the site is a little plain right now, but if you are using RSS the site itself isn't too important.

Re: New TyronePA website design
Strange that you'd say that - I had this strange dream recently that I drove from Myrtle Beach to Tyrone last month and stopped in to talk with Rick about the site.

I say all this "cowbell" and "big sticks" talk can be attributed to a few of those warped folks on this forum with drumming backgrounds.Leep wrote:Uh, if those guys with the big sticks beating something...
Drummers are ALL insane. Oh...yea, that's right...

Re: New TyronePA website design
Congrats on the new website design! I was really excited to discover it the other day, but disappointed that the RSS doesn't work. I get the following error message (I'm using Firefox):
XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
Location: http://www.tyronepa.com/v3/?feed=rss2
Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
My other criticisms are more minor. The permalinks are confusing (e.g., tyronepa.com/v3/?cat=3 instead of, say, tyronepa.com/news), and I question the placement of links in the left sidebar vs. the top navigation bar -- is "Tyrone of To-Day" really a bigger draw than news, obituaries and sports?
But it's great to see my hometown website using WordPress. I always found the old site hard to navigate.
