So Google launched their Project 10^100 and I think we can borrow some of their layout ideas. From looking at http://www.project10tothe100.com/index.html,<http://www.project10tothe100.com/index.html>things I liked that I can see us adding in the future:
- Menu on the left gives quick links to "Why" and "How" - Video on the front page gives quick overview. - Get Started button on the front page - we have this with our options on the front page but there's is much more obvious. - FAQ I think probably the quick links to Why and How and the FAQ would be reasonably easy to add. In the FAQ we could address: - What is GNOME? - Why is GNOME free? - Who uses GNOME? - What will my money be used for? - How much money does GNOME need? - What are GNOME's plans for the future? - How will I know how my money has been used? - How do I cancel my monthly payment? - How do I change the amount that I'm donating every month? - Who decides what is done with my money? - How else can I help GNOME? - ... I'll work on the answers as well. Stormy On Mon, Sep 29, 2008 at 10:40 AM, Brian Cameron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > > Stormy: > > Looks good.
