www.wnba.com/mercury was redesigned & unveiled today.! Looks pretty good, I think!

Can't use history as an example. We've gotten them 6 weeks ahead of time and days before the 1st preseason game. I'll make a point of calling tomorrow & post the result on this board

I called & Mercury office didn't have an exact date. She said "They tell us tickets will be mailed about 2 weeks before the 1st game." I reminded her that's 5 days from now :?

Not to sure about the glaring yellow background, it hurts my eyes. Also, I like how the players names morph into one another.

Several of the links on the old board are missing, including the link to this message board. There is no mention of the Mercury Rising Booster club. A few of the pictures did not come up on my screen either. Some of the other items are better like the calendar and links to articles and such.

yep, first thing I noticed, no link to gotnext.com.
It's not bad but the yellow background is hard on the eyes

Never mind the yellow. There's no way to return to the Home page. This is a huge Web design no-no....

The WNBA home page? Up top, left hand corner where it says "WNBA."

Mercury home page? To the left, player advertisement.

No, the Mercury home page. I don't see any "player advertisement" link on the left.

If you hit the Phoenix Mercury icon it will take you back to the home page.

It's there but for simple folk like myself, they should have a home link IMHO.

I'm just not getting any hot spot indicating a link anywhere on the logo in the upper-left corner. Where are you folks clicking?

When you are on the main page there is no hot-spot there (since it would be pointless).

When you are on any other page, the Mercury logo becomes a link back to the main page.

They were so busy updating the background, they forgot to update the roster page as far as the assistant coaches are concerned.
