I am quite happy to hear opinions on this - maybe it's too subtle, maybe it's sheer genius, or maybe it's plain stupid. Tell me, and give me a better suggestion - including a proposal for what we should we have why.openoffice.org/index.html until the "final" content is ready.
Well, it's probably too late to do anything about the buttons that have already been put up, but I think it would be good to have special pages for special buttons. I mean, when the button says "Keep it Legal" - then it should go to the legal campaign page. If it says "Keep the car" - the test drive campaign, etc. It shouldn't be too difficult, just make the link in the button code go to the related page. On the basic "why" page - put whatever the latest campaign is - with links to the older campaigns (pretty much what is there now). But I don't think the why page should be static. It should probably always have the latest campaign. Even after OOoCon 2006. But even the current campaign should have it's own page - so like now, the test drive campaign should have it's own page - or folder - and the keep the car buttons should link there - not to why.openoffice.org, but to why.openoffice.org/testdrive.html or why.openoffice.org/testdrive/ or whatever. That way if someone were to build a specialized test drive OOo page - and included the link from the website - it wouldn't change when the next campaign comes along. You could always have a php include that will house links to the current and past campaigns - so that will automagically update whenever the next campaign comes out - keeping the old pages/campaigns up to date with minimal effort. -- - Chad Smith http://www.gimpshop.net/ http://www.whatisopenoffice.org/ http://www.chadwsmith.com/
