Who designed the website? It looks great! My only suggestion is a PayPal “Donate” button (also, fancy text for the “Robin Hood” header.)

I’d also suggest getting rid of the street address (although it’s really too late for that) and using a PO Box or dropbox instead. In some places it is illegal to feed the meters for others.

Excellent ideas. What do you mean by “fancy text for the ‘Robin Hood’ header”?

I mean an image of the text rendered in a fancy font, not just plain text. The rest of the site is images, so I think a header image would complement it.

Interesting: “Robin Hood of Keene” was in the Olde-English style font, but I realize it was the only element on the web page where the text was displayed as text instead of as a graphic element. So apparently that font is not common amongst OSes. So I added a drop-shadow so it’s a graphic. How does it look now?

I also added a Donation button.

I left the address because it’s publicized on the donation envelopes anyway, but if Robin Hood tells me to remove it, I will.

This is Great! First Ticketless Tuesdays, then Ticketless Weeks!

I can see those Cockroaches getting steaming mad that “you people” are taking the Crown of Keene’s money away! How could you be so insensitive?

And what about the Ticket Nazi Lady who whips the tickets out now? What about her job!?

You damn Free Staters always doing stuph! Don’t you know the Crown of Keene wants you to OBEY & PAY?!

Really they’d just prefer you take your big ideas and go back to where you came from because they really don’t work well with the Crown’s present “methods of business.”

Bottomline, Great News for all Freedom Lovers: This is just the Beginning of The Activism that’s to come from the Free State Project participants (just getting warmed up).

I wonder about the 2 hour thing … I mean, ideally the city wouldn’t be running the roads at all — maybe businesses could run the parking spaces in front of their store.

But, someone needs to have a time limit, otherwise people who live in the vicinity might just park their second car there, or old beaters, indefinitely.

I slightly modified the website and added a YouTube video that almost captured Robin Hood. If you know of other vids, please let me know. Also, the site will change slightly as more info/video about Robin Hood is discovered – check back every once in a while.
