The Dupuytren Foundation has a new, attractive and very informational website. Below are some of the tabs on the website (I didn't take the time to make it look pretty). There's info on research, the disease, news, treatments, etc. Take a look:

Thanks to all of you and many other wonderful supporters, we are making headway with the foundation. Long road ahead of us while we work together to find a cure. It can and will be done...

Sincerely.
Valerie Eaton

Nice web site with lots of interesting information. But - what's with the photo of the ecstatically happy white-haired couple, and what does it have to do with Dupuytren's? It looks like an ad for Viagra. Are they trying to imply this is a disease of people over 65? That is certainly not true.

How about a picture of a hand?

Valerie, that's really good. Each of those photos relates to Dupuytren's, each with a different spin, some subtle, and some emotional. And great photography too. I stand and applaud (being careful not to mash my bent pinkie).

The new photo's look great. It gives the site a modern look, after all it is about hands. I liked showing the variety of hands doing different activities. I believe it will relate to a wider group of people using the new photo's. Good job!!, I also like the website. Lots of information. Thanks
