The web site is intended to concentrate on content, not annoying animated graphics. Also, the simpler a site is, the quicker it loads up, even over slow connections. More bells and whistles may be added if they enhance the content, but don't expect anything too fancy.

Update: The site has been upgraded to use Civicspace/Drupal, which has many more bells and whistles. However, the intent is still to focus on interactive content about our families.
