Hi,
working on the feedback for yesterday's Splash screen and last weeks Home page proposal, I updated these two pages on the server.
I don't know how much work is to translate the http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/1/17/OpenSUSE-splash-003.png to a working model, but I have feeling that this and some section under the logo, like article of the month that will pull people to visit en.opensuse.org can be the right thing to do, right now. The en.opensuse.org is the most complete and presentable in the moment so little bias can help growth of the community. Later it can be article of the month on any of the localized wikies. The one that is most translated to others, for instance.
This would be the best proposal by now looking from prospective of new users, and that is probably the most important category. Although I prefer simple left navigation panel, that would demand deeper reorganization of some pages, and that can take time that I don't want to wait. I vote for this one.
Splash screen: - implemented Christian's css fixes - added Turkish (was missing in previous versions) - replaced openSUSE writing - added search graphic
Home page: - all icons are now from the KDE crystal icon set (except the download icon, which is from YaST, but fits nicely (IMHO)) - icon size is now 48x48 (was 64x64 before) - swapped help and news boxes - added "openSUSE Graphics" box
I see "Show me the graphics..." but Firefox thinks that I should see this http://en.opensuse.org/Open-iSCSI_and_SUSE_Linux
I also tried to make the "tail" a background image of the home page, as was suggested. Looks horrible ;-). Uncomment lines 20-24 in opensuse.css to see for yourself.
No need to look at, the spiral structure behind the nice squared and sorted sections is not good :-) If some of my comments was the reason for this, somehow I skipped the word "embedded" and helped for misunderstanding. International splash might be embedded in normal en.opensuse.org , in central portion instead of normal content. It will look similar as http://en.opensuse.org/Image:OpenSUSE-splash-idea-001.png , but this might be too strong bias toward one language, and later when authors that write in other languages make article of the month there would be no place to advertise this. -- Regards, Rajko.
