So I've been working on this site a lot and I'm pretty happy with what I've got so far. (I've still got a lot of work to do.)

Check it out:
http://www.mormonprobe.com/

There are tons of information about Mormonism websites out there that do a fantastic job, but I'm trying to take a somewhat unique approach that I haven't seen done yet - something I would have found VERY useful when I was in my research phase.

I would love any feedback especially any catches on typos and any additional recommendations for links.

Other than that, keep up the good work! I like seeing all those links in one place.

Are you referring to the sublinks being too small of a font?

OK I made them a little bigger - what do you think now? Would you still go larger?

bookmarked! thanks

A good idea. Needs to be seen with some big visitor numbers!

A good you tube video (viral if possible) with your link would do the trick.

I love your graphic at the top <3 Good work bc

Fidget gets the credit for the graphic :) - ok 99% of the credit - I did resize it and make it work with the logo.

Also twojedis, makurosa, flyboy, ginger & jenn helped pick the name and gave input on the look & feel. (SORRY if I'm forgetting anyone.)

Other than a passionate, burning, rabid hate for Comic Sans, the website looks great. Looking forward to more links.

LOL

The Comic Sans is gone just for you. I was wanting to match the whimsical name & logo, but I think I prefer it with a more standard font - I went Georgia.

Yes props for my graphic skills! :)

To me a great website has a way to go look for things and a way to get back. You have included that plus you have all the connections and the short descriptions one could want.

Very good job!

A suggestion for your site (and possibly a section on exmormon.org) is to list all the sites that appear to be unbiased explanations of LDS, but are really church owned.

Cool idea - do you have a list?

No, the thought only just came to me as I was looking at your site. I can try to put one together (though with new sites popping up everyday, it wouldn't be exhaustive at any given time other than when the list was culled together).

If you give me a list I'll add it to the "by their fruits" section with some comment about being deceptive.

Ok

I like it.
It's in my Favs.

This is a job well done, sir.

Especially love the double entendre in the logo. Hee!

Ahem. Now that I've calmed my inner twelve-year-old glee over the probe, I really do like the site. We're in the process of re-platforming/re-designing our site at work so I know a bit of the hell that goes into building these things. I second the suggestion to go just a bit bigger, if you can, on the font. And if you can embed one or two of the videos in the video page (maybe the Dodo one and another compelling one) I'd recommend that, too.

Your site is a really great resource for people who are searching. It's great to have so much info all leatherbound and presented nicely in one place.

YES!!!! I KNEW the probe would work! When you're famous bc, let me fly your Gulfstream.

The font already is bigger - you should have seen it before :)

And you should have seen my probe graphic...

OK I made the font a little bit bigger - I tried even bigger but it started looking lame

Thanks for the compliments on my graphic! :)

You should have seen bc's, it was horrible lol

Careful fidget - I could easily replace it with a certain facebook backside photo :P

Hahahaha hey now! What happens in the secret FB group is sacred..

I thought, nah, he didn't, and then when I clicked on the site I burst out laughing. You REALLY did mean probe! Oh my god. The bunny should be showing it's behind though, if we're being true to alien myths.

I couldn't fine a bunny picture that fit. I wanted to have JS pulling a rabbit out or the BOM out, but we didn't want to scare away too many curious folk :)

I've already sent 2 soon to be ex mormons to your site.

It should give them plenty to read up on.

Well done.

John Dehlin Intervies Tom Phillips
Interview with resigned Mormon who had received his 2nd annointing.

Very interesting. Dehlin sounds like he is attempting to cast Mormonism as an open and honest thing.

It is amazing how well Mr. Phillips capsulates the experience of Mormonism in contrast to the absurdity of where the experience leads.

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
Well done, you!
