If I come in looking for a manual, or looking to talk to someone, or to provide feedback, submit a bug report, etc, I would not have any place to do those things on this design. > This is why the design focusses more on access via the horizontal > navigation bar.

Look, I know you really want your design approved, but I honestly think it's lacking a lot of information. > Wouldn't you click on support or new user if you were looking for help > or a manual? You could start by adding a support link somewhere. That would help. > Bug reports should not be made by newbies, I disagree. New users are an important source of feedback. We can't restrict feedback only to experts. Otherwise we'll never design a program that is useful to newbies. > I would really like to know if you can follow my way of reasoning about > the menu bar... and in what extend you agree to this... http://www.math.umd.edu/~dcarrera/screenshot2.png Cheers, -- Daniel Carrera | I don't want it perfect, Join OOoAuthors today! | I want it Tuesday. http://oooauthors.org | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
