Are you looking at putting your personal touch on this community? Do you want to help capture new visitors to opensuse.org? And make it easier for us all to find information on the opensuse.org pages?

Create your ideas of the new front page and add a link on: http://en.opensuse.org/Frontpage_redesign

We also need everybody to provide constructive criticisms of the proposals.

As propsosals become more mature, some translations would also be good, especially if the original is not in English.

I think the two present proposals (your and the german one) are two different things and the two must be addressed.

Peter Flodin's design is just a component; the German page is a full page design. Gotta keep that in mind :) Joseph M. Gaffney aka CuCullin

Sorry, but the "Frontpage" subject was giving me the 'willies' every time it showed up in my in-box! "Frontpage" is a M$ WYSIWYG web page creation program.

So can we use it to design the openSUSE page? ;-) houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit. Leben ist aber mehr als Werk und Arbeit, und das Sein wichtiger als das Tun - Johannes Müller-Elmau

Sure we can, if we want to make Microsoft more proud. :-)

Would you like some Wine with that ActiveX?

You must have a different Outlook(tm) on things, I thought it was an Excel(tm)lent Word(tm).

Good that it is allowed to use trademarks to make fun of product names. :-) But it should be forbidden to use general terms as program names. cheers, Jw. -- o \ Juergen Weigert paint it green! __/ _=======.=======_ <V> | jw@suse.de wide open suse_/ _---|____________\/ \ | 0911 74053-508 (tm)__/ (____/ /\ (/) | __________________________/ _/ \_ vim:set sw=2 wm=8

Exactly. It could possibly be incorporated into a frontpage. It could be modified and used as as a splash screen on www.opensuse.org. My personal opionion is that www.opensuse.org should automatically redirect to the language your browser is requesting. If it doesn't exist, then en.opensuse.org. The listing of all the wikis with a logo in the middle, is just as much marketing as a navigation tool. It is to show that the opening line of opensuse.org is true "The openSUSE project is a worldwide community program..." Peter 'Pflodo' Flodin

right don't forget also that a main page should not be to big. all what is under the screen is prone to not be seen... jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos
