Re: Web Branding Question

If others could respond "to all" for this post, I'm interested in this question, too. As the communications director and the person who oversees the web at our school, it's a little simpler because I do allow flexibility with our Whipplehill site. I
think you have to be willing incorporate Web 2.0 applications as part of the standard template. You might also check Whipplehill's informational site for their clients that show examples of how schools have created great graphically appealing pages
within the template.
