i got annoyed with the general attitude, so i decided to sit down and design a site. you can see the results at http://users.actcom.co.il/~choo/haifux/ a few notes: 1. i contemplated mostly on what should go on the front page. then i started thinking about usability - who is the target audiance of the web site? and then i realized that its mostly a set of people that keep returning to the site, and wish to know what's coming next. so the front page shows a summary of the comming activities. 2. regarding the "menu", i just stole part of the "non-design" of LUPG, so don't mind the 'stolen' images. 3. regarding the logo (tux-at-home.gif) - i wish to write 'Haifux' along side tux's shoulder (to the left of tux, from buttom-left to top-right). i created an image with this text, only that i had to "write" the word pixel by pixel, and i did a bad job (http://users.actcom.co.il/~choo/haifux/tux-at-haifux.gif). 4. i didn't know where to put shlomi's perl lectures. i think that since it wasn't part of the regular lectures, nor part of the welcome-2-linux series, i should add a new section to the 'menu', stating 'Lecture-Sets' and in it put a link to the perl lectures series, as well as any other "External" lecture series we'll have in the future. 5. i looked at the pages using netscape (4.7x :P~~~) as well as using lynx (2.8.1rel.2), and it appears to look ok under both. my screen resolution is 1024x768, so i tried to also reduce netscape's window's width to about half the screen's width, and the pages still come up ok ('menu' being split over 2 lines). 6. the links inside the pages DO NOT MOSTLY WORK, since i didn't copy all the site's contents (what's the use of doing that before i know if this design will win the contest or lose miserably). comments are welcome. not flames. -- guy "For world domination - press 1, or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://linuxclub.il.eu.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
