1. Index News Category Links |
|
|
| Well, as some of you pointed out is that the main index page is starting to get rather long and have asked about adding text links on the page. Here is a quick suggestions how it could look like and I'm just wondering if this what you people would like to see: http://www.os2world.com/index_new.php /Kim |

It 'tidies up' the 'homepage'. I like the icons too. It is similar to what http://en.os2.org has for their news.

| Could you make the headlines a bit smaller? They are consuming too much space themselves IMHO. Or what about integrating the links into the navigation bar on the left? And could you remove the images? While the icons look good they make the page slower to load again. |

Good idea adding the direct news links to the left column. Keeps the major news visible (even I wouldn't have a problem with an extra click ). Check this draft:http://www.os2world.com/index_new3.php Would this be something that you prefer? Also is there after all any needs for direct links to the different news categories? Regarding the first draft, reason for this icons was that without them it looked like a massive text box, it actually looked horrible. The icons made a bit light. Then again images make the site to load slower again. /Kim |

Having the index on the side really gives it a professional look and it makes it easier to use.

True, I'm even starting to read some of the news down on the page as well... I liked Christian suggestion of using the already existing left column. Only problem now is that the banner os too far down now. So either I move it up above the menu and that won't happend. I remove it and we might use banners in the center column instead, ie long wide banners that normally are used./Kim |

Perhaps you could use the banners to separate the categorirs? (not in the index but on the page)?

| I thought about that and I guess that would look best since the banners now is placed to far down to make sence. Well ofcourse it depends on what browser size you keep the window and etc etc. |
