Hi Patrick,
when it comes to out of the box eye candy options, here are a few pointers:
*Thumbnail listings vs Abstract snippet listing*
In the Mirage theme for XMLUI, there is a configuration setting that
enables you to choose between item listings with thumbnails, or text based
listings that will give you the snippet of an abstract.
More info:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Mirage+Configuration+and+Customization
*Tag Cloud*
*
*
Although it is not committed to the core yet, there is a pending Tag Cloud
feature for JSPUI.
Discussion about this feature: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1227
Code: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/47
Most institutions add their own eye candy and specific graphics. If you see
anything in particular out there you like, you can always reach out to
these institutions to see if they want to share their approach/code.
hope this helps
Bram
