I think it needs a few words to say what OOoAuthors is.


How about now? I tried to make it discrete, but not hard to see.


It needs to be larger and not so pale. Discreet is good, but this is in fact hard to see. (And if I enlarge it, then the language names become huge and overwrite the logo and look terrible.)

The one thing I don't like about it is that it's only English, which takes away from the idea of a language-neutral front page. Maybe there's a way to make the text multi-lingual. I could try to do it with Javascript, but JS is ugly and some people disable it to avoid popups. I hope there is a clean CSS solution I can use.


I agree it's not good that it's only English. I thought of that problem when I made my suggestion, but I do think that having some explanation in English is better than none at all in any language.

I would like to know what other people think, though. Is a brief explanation necessary or important?

When I asked Eric that question, he was very emphatic that we need something. Here is his suggestion for the words (he had not seen yours when he wrote this):
"Site for authors writing user documentation for OpenOffice.org."

I don't think Eric's version is better wording than yours, btw. I just offer it as a suggestion from an outsider, someone who might be visiting the site for the first time.

Cheers, Jean


I think the OOAuthors wording should go in the circle maybe under the feather and Enthought logo. Most only see the top half of the screen when trying to find out what the site is about.
