www.opensuse.org has a pretty huge banner to advertise the conference in July. Well, there is nothing wrong with that in general but what about reducing the height until a few weeks after the 12.3 release? Just to make sure the conference banner doesn't dominate the screen when the hot topic is the release?
You should replace it with the 12.3 banner for a couple of weeks once 12.3 is released.
The 12.3 banner is already there. The banner is the countdown. We have it in the square form you currently see but also as wide version like a banner.
It's not actionable, it doesn't lead anywhere. It's just information on when something is going to happen. You have a split second to get peoples attention so you better hit them over the head with what you want them to do.
It probably doesn't look good to put both on the web site
Sure, why not? The countdown is just information about when this thing is going to be released. Once it's there hit people over the head with a large "Download 12.3 NOW!" banner on the most prominent place we have to offer. You shouldn't mind the duplication of information if you want to get your point across.
So the options we have are either to shrink the conference banner or remove it completely I guess. IMO shrinking it would be better so the conference still benefits from the attention the release gets.
I'm telling you, people who visit the frontpage notice first and foremost the banner. If you want people to pay attention to the release, replace the conference banner with a release banner.
