Preview here: +</I>><i> <A HREF="http://i.imgur.com/nDlwK.png">http://i.imgur.com/nDlwK.png</A> +</I>Looks good to me :). +><i> +</I>><i> 2. loading the browser in Mageia currently sends you to +</I>><i> start.mageia.org which in turn redirects to www.mageia.org; I'd like +</I>><i> to change that so that start.mageia.org goes to +</I>><i> www.mageia.org/community/ +</I>><i> 3. given these changes, in the new navigation bar, clicking on the +</I>><i> logo/home position would not redirect to the c.1. home (which is +</I>><i> targetted to fresh/new visitors) neither /community, but to /map which +</I>><i> provides a large, top-view of what's available in mageia.org Web site. +</I>><i> That's quite a change from usual navigation practices (although it is +</I>><i> used sometimes), and I'm not 100% confident yet, but I think it's +</I>><i> worth trying something a bit different. +</I>I think I understand this. A new potential user is likely to start on +<A HREF="http://mageia.org.">http://mageia.org.</A> Usually when a logo is put on a website as part of +the design it will link back to the homepage, but instead you would like +it to link to the map page, which I think makes sense. + +Then when people are using Mageia you would like Firefox for example to +open up a contributing to the community page by default, rather than the +homepage or map which I think makes sense, because ideally we would want +loads of our users to contribute to it as well. + +I have my own request for the website, please mention Identica on the +website again, and I would suggest having it link to the Mageia group, +because I make sure important news gets shown there and so on. +<A HREF="http://identi.ca/group/mageia">http://identi.ca/group/mageia</A> + +In fact if you got access to the group settings, can you please make me +an admin of the group, so that I can clear out fake accounts. + +Also can you please upload a better logo, because the one that is +currently there something is wrong with it apparently. + +Also ideally Mageia should have people on all the social networking +sites where Mageia has a presence taking them seriously promoting +Mageia, so yep Diaspora really as well, which you should probably also +mention on the <A HREF="http://mageia.org">http://mageia.org</A> website. + +Also ideally the <A HREF="http://identi.ca/mageia">http://identi.ca/mageia</A> account should send the news to +the group. Diaspora with another program can send to Identica, and +Identica can send directly to Twitter. Then I think Twitter can send to +Facebook as well some how. +</PRE> + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="000868.html">[Mageia-marketing] Web site, a few updates pending, open for comments +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="000873.html">[Mageia-marketing] Web site, a few updates pending, open for comments +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#869">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#869">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#869">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#869">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-marketing">More information about the Mageia-marketing +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
