this is a really big deal for me, creating an issue, but i just am tired of digging through all of them to find the appropriate place for this.

Stuart: FYI: you can change the search to only search This Repository, which should index the issues and all words in them too.

We'll need to have consistent color scheming throughout out website. I like the first page that you did, with the greys and yellows. We could maybe incorporate that throughout, or go with something new. The page with all the pricing and packages hurts me, but i know it hasn't been updated yet with new copy, etc.

Here's a pretty good website for this kind of info: http://tympanus.net/codrops/2011/12/08/25-examples-of-perfect-color-combinations-in-web-design/

I also chatted with some designers at work, but they said there was no golden rule when it comes to color. Just "less is more" and "keep it clean."

I think we need to start from scratch on the design. The problem is that design is really hard, I don't do it that well. What would be helpful would be some mockups to go off of, or a baseline design of some sort.

I think we need a night to sit down and just start messing around with everything, or get @OMGitsbillyfrick involved a bit more.

Also a good design resource (and all these examples use the same framework I used) http://expo.getbootstrap.com/

I can try and play around with some stuff this weekend, going off of some of the examples. Stu, are you thinking a tab style site like we did for Roofing Sales, or do you want to do one long scrolling site, with a button on the side that let's you click down to certain sections?

Well, there really are no limitations, but you can look at the way its set up now to see the individual pieces and go from there. We may not even need to have three separate forms for the three different types.

I honestly don't know what it should look like, which is why everything is disjointed design-wise. Basic thought being something might work and we can go from there, but it hasn't really worked yet.

The only thing I like is the way the forms work and tell you if what you entered is valid or not (minus the hover-overs which are slightly annoying...maybe we only show them when a user mouses over some field for more than 5s or something).
