Nice design

[edit]

I really, really like this. It's colourful and well organised and different enough from the current page. Nice work. — CycloneNimrod  Talk? 08:31, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I second this. :) -[[Ryan]] (me) (talk) 19:54, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed

[edit]

I agree; I especially like that the portal links are in the top center of the page. If a user is looking for a jump off point it makes it easy to find.--FeanorStar7 (talk) 10:40, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Concern

[edit]

With my current screen resolution I think it looks very nice, but I worry that with a low resolution and/or a small screen the three boxes will become very narrow and thus difficult to read. Loggie (talk) 12:38, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You're not wrong. The columns aren't as bad as on some other designs (four to six words before the text wraps), and are just about legible, but they don't look good in low-res, I fear. Anaxial (talk) 21:20, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

agreed

[edit]

best proposal of them all/.. the only thing I may add is some curved header boxes. I like the search and portal right in the middle of the page. --Jezarnold (talk) 14:56, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good Job

[edit]

This is really good. My second favorite so far. I'd prefer if DYK and ITN were switched. Nice work. 5:15 17:56, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice

[edit]

My favorite of the designs so far! oisjfw (talk) 19:12, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I'm not sure if Featured Sound should be on the main page, as not everyone has an Ogg player installed. It's not accessible to everyone. Gary King (talk) 19:15, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


It's a bit cluttered

[edit]

On smaller screens. futurebird (talk) 19:33, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks great

[edit]

Nicely done. I see no problem but worry about four columns on smaller screens. And sorry to be late with comments. I see now this is incorporated in Wikipedia:2008 main page redesign proposal/Gnangarra (I mixed them up). —SusanLesch (talk) 06:09, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice!

[edit]

I like the colourful headings and search bar. GizzaDiscuss © 07:42, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

i would love to see that search box right smack dab in the middle of the wikipedia article count grouping and the wikipedia description grouping. possible? JoeSmack Talk 19:28, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

unfortunately, I've had bad experiences with search boxes in the header banner on other wikis i've worked on... nat.utoronto 23:31, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
