Website of the Week: The Skitsaphrenics

The Skitsaphrenics are a sketch comedy troupe, or as their tag-line says on their website, “just another one of those sketch comedy troupes.” While that may be good for a giggle, we think their website does a lot to separate them out from the crowd.

The design and color scheme of the website invokes the feeling of a hip, dark comedy club where you just know they should be performing. They used a simple but effective custom navigation menu which lets you move about their website and explore all the troupe has to offer, such as bios of the cast, videos of their sketches, and their photo gallery.

At first, the website was just used to put up YouTube videos. And I really just stuck to the layouts that were given. But over time, I became comfortable with the site and realized that Yola gives the tools, but it’s up to me to craft the website. Yola has, in fact, given a smorgasbord of options and widgets, and with some crafting on a flash program and manipulation of HTML to create menus and slideshows, I now have a site that I truly love, and I know that whoever sees the site will love it too. I also now have a place to write in my news–I don’t even have to go elsewhere to create a blog. Every time I decide I want to try something new, I figure out that I can–whether it be from the forum or the help page. I feel like a kid in a candy store as I spend hours finding new things to help make my website better. And I’m still finding ways!—Warren Buchholz
