Post subject: | Main Page design |
I created a new design of the Main Page: User:Walling/Sandbox. What do you think about it? |

Uh, just a new look for the same thing? I probably missed something... |

Uhm, yeah. Maybe it's not that great. It is another look for the same thing. I just thought that the front page of the wiki could be a little more welcoming. Instead of criticizing it by saying it's boring I tried to be more constructive. |

Well the only thing i find disturbing about it is the abundance of extra boxes. (wiki art? ) For the rest, I agree that your version of the welcome message is more appropriate. I'd personally replace "what and why" with a link to the project list, as being more useful in this location. |

The second one is much more clean and therefore better. However I find the colours not quite fitting. The yellow is, for me, unbearable. Also the borders are too think for that style of grey. As far as the layout in general I prefer it over the current Main_Page. |

If the yellow color is unbearable, should I change it then? I actually like it. I think it highlights the box so you read the text. I also myself like the thick borders. I like the "notable" look. That is why I also like the first proposal I made with boxes for each subject. But the yellow color could be changed. The borders could be made thinner. If people want that. |

I like the first one. The borders look good. It is a lot better than the current page (no offence, chase!) -Stephen |

Even if you like borders, thats just too much of the good stuff. I voted for Sandbox2. |

I realize now that my first criticisms were a little too strict. There are some really good ideas in both of the sandboxes. However, I felt like making my own little test. http://www.osdev.org/wiki/User:Jhawthorn/Sandbox You may be saying to yourself "Hey! aren't those colours from Wikipedia?" Yeah, I admit it, I'm a sucker for desaturated blues. Any design ideas that could be merged from this one would make me very happy. |
