Better I think... » Nat | Talk » 22:48, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Cool, thanks. Anyone have any specific feedback / suggestions here? I'll plan on moving this to the main page later today. --Voidious 14:37, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

One thing I definitely agree is the removal of Current Event section. But I think I like old header more; this one is too white. And I still think link to old robowiki is a must. --Nat Pavasant 02:16, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

I also agree with the removal of the current events sections. I feel that the twitter on the side fills that purpose better. I too also like the old header colors more though. I'm not sure they were ideal though. --Rednaxela 02:53, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

When you guys say header colors, do you mean the gray background behind all the text on the page? Or just the top banner part? Or just the greenish that I made blueish? Man, I dunno if I just don't look at the main page much, but now that I'm critiquing it, I find it pretty hideous... =) Black text on gray bg is definitely a pet peeve of mine. I need some contrast! But the reorganization and the content are bigger concerns, of course. --Voidious 02:59, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

I disliked the greenish a bit, but I dislike the contrast being too high for the main title area, particularly with bold text. Also I found the big black bordered too contrasting. Perhaps the change here looks nicer on the eyes? User:Rednaxela/Main Page. Also, agreed that the reorganization and content are bigger concerns :) --Rednaxela 03:29, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

I like it, but I'd almost make the header background a bit darker if we're going to change it. (And I do agree with changing it now...) I personally like the white on black for the rest of the page. And the grey instead of black borders is nice, it's a bit less in-your-face. I don't have much attachment to the blueish vs greenish in the other headers - we had both in use (which I hadn't noticed) and I just picked one.

I might also play with some additional, less critical content under the current sections. Things like utilities, RoboResearch, more of the Eclipse/IDE links, maybe some particular tutorials or bots or other pages that just seem good for someone that wants to really start digging in. --Voidious 03:36, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
