Redesign of the www.rockbox.org front page

<< < (21/69) > >>

sanusart:
Do we want the "wiki", "svn" and "mail" on the front page, or maybe we want a "news" page with all three of them in it?
I think first page of the site should concentrate on the "product" for the newcomers and not on the recent news and additions to the product. So if you're new user coming to this site - you want to know "what is this all about", "do I need it", "why would I need it" -  and not what has changed at the SVN and what problems others have. Current users who interested in additions of SVN can read it from other location like other page or RSS/XML/ATOM...

Opinions?

Mikerman:
I think it's great to offer something for potential new users, but as a current user, I like the instant access to SVN changes on the front page.  And I think that this also is good "publicity" as to Rockbox's constant improvements, including for potential new users.

AlexP:
SVN on the front page - it is essentially a change log for many people, and whilst it is nice to welcome new people, it should also be for existing users (and even developers!)

Edit: IMO

crash91:
If theres a coder out there, i can do graphics for you, I can do HTML and CSS, but my skills are limited and I dont know how to automatically update the svn/wiki etc. Maybe if someone helps me out with that i could make another design for the front page. (Note it will not be in php/asp/whatever else as i only know HTML and CSS).

 :P
Going to work on it now, Ill see how it turns out.

PS: Maybe i could get a newsticker that reads rasher's newly set up RSS feed for majorchanges, and possibly if he could set up others, those as well. If I do, it would most probably be restricting by having to give credit to the maker in source (I dont know Javascript/AJAX either :()

Angyman:
Hmm... i think a design proposal would be sufficient to the devs here so html and CSS is enough...  Dont worry about the server side things because it comes after the design...
