Hey Y'all

I just wanted to let everyone here know that I created my own website for open theism on my school server. I had to create X number of pages for certain Educational Technology Classes. SO I did one on Open View Theism, and on the Misunderstandings of Armianism(s).
If Y'all would please give me some feedback... I would gladly appreciate it. It was meant to be simple for the sake of my friends with whom I share my endeavors.

www.westga.edu/~stu59980/openviewtheism.html

please sign the guest book to let me know what you think!
NOte: there are two guestbooks, one for the Main Page about me and
another for the Open View Theism page.

Do you want me to be honest and say that it is hard to look at?

CHUCK:Thanks for the Honesty. I am extremely Colorblind and the colors/fonts suit me best... Do you have any sugestions for what would make it easier to look at?

I have to go look at it again. My juniorhigh son is putting together a site for our family. Right not the issue of CONTRAST requires that the background not interfere with our attempts to read the text. Lets see yours....

OK, you have an orange font in bold that has a slight tapering and widening at certain points. And you run that against an inconsistent background texture of 0-s & 1-s. Its inconsistent because there is no rythm of pattern like a checkerboard would have. When there is a background (visible or oral) our brains can filter-out what they can predict. But unpredictable background "noise" (oral or visible) is disctracting. Simply put, the task of deciphering one orange letter from another is COMPLICATED BY the interference of the un-even background texture.

To boot, your texture of 0-s & 1-s is close enough in color (hue) to the font that it also is a factor.

And, for some reason, the bold font doesn't make pharagraph changes easily evident. For that font I think you need at least a half-line skip, if not a whole.

People "see" most easily what they are prepared to see. (Magic tricks make us see what is not there so that we won't see what is there.) Help the reader.

In your biblical support section, can you leave an empty space between the blue lines and the text. That would help too.


---------------------------------

On a different note... We ALL should realize that THEOLOGY is not just ideas, but is actions too. When we ask "what is his theology" we should really be asking HOW DOES HE THEN LIVE.

WHEN you post up a theology website with a position that you are proud of, hadn't you properly also to think about your actions and the actions of Christians.

In that light, post a section on the Merciful works Christians are doing in your area. Homeless shelters, political justice groups, support for the elderly, early education and afterschool, etc.

Who cares if someone has a more pointed "position" than another; expecially if we allow it to become divisive, and perhaps form just one more fragmented denomination. ("...that they may be one as Thou Father and I are one...").

Get the bi picture....while you are young.


Peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit!

Try taking the SCROLL-BAR of your site, and moving it UP & DOWN, FAST. You will see the problem.

PotOnWheel,

that's why I don't scroll fast, everything looks blurry to me when I scroll fast on the page.
did you like the content of the page?
Are you viewing it through netscape b/c netscape does not read alot of the java/applet/MS codes right?

Thanks for the advice, I was trying to keep this page consistant with my other pages. No one else has old me it was hard to read. the Orange and White is of course, for the University of Tennessee, God's TeamTongue

Thanks for your imput I will play aorund with sme stuff when I get back to school and have the correct programs.

Here's a website with material I love, but that is really, really hard to look at. (Education by bad example)

POW

A truly hard to read website!

Just write it in basic html - that'll make it all a lot easier to read!

Paragraphs and headings - what more do you need?

Love

SORRY! Did you think that was mine???

It is by a guy in Hawaii, a retired languages professor from the Berlin Politechnic in Germany. Smart guy. Half the site about languages theory, and the other half about theology and history. Very informative.

Beautiful!



Now the only thing that needs improvement is the theology. ;-)


Blessings!
