Minor nitpicking: the home page example has two different language selectors, upper right and lower left. One should be enough, and lower left is mediawiki standard, so probably the menu thingie is not necessary.
sorry, I didn't explained why: We are not sure, whether the drop down list can be implemented into the wiki (I will have to research this), so I suggested to include the "classical" language selector as well. However, given the growing number of wikis, we would prefer the drop-down list.
The home page example does not offer the same amount of space for information blocks as the current portal style does. [...] Your example goes back to two menu and one content columns, which was what we started with back when opensuse.org launched, and which didn't really work in practice IIRC.
jdd already mentioned it - there are two proposals: one with a three column layout (draft_home.png) and one with a two column layout (draft_content.png).
The yellow/orange is almost unreadable on my monitor (you're welcome to have a look at it in my office ;-)),
Almost everybody complained about this so far, so this definitely needs improvement.
apart from that the style looks not bad, though I have to admit I like the current boxy design of the wiki start page too. Have you tried with different font sizes, and could you maybe post a screen shot with a bigger font?
Currently there is no HTML version available, and creating a png with bigger fonts will prove nothing ;-)). But, yes, Robert is aware of the fact that the design has to be scalable. -- Regards Frank Frank Sundermeyer, Technical Writer, Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg Tel: +49-911-74053-0, Fax: +49-911-7417755; http://www.opensuse.org/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) "Reality is always controlled by the people who are most insane" Dogbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
