That green thing is just pug ugly. But that's about the only visual aspect I can be really negative about. It's a nice initial page. I quite like the banner because it makes the page seem not to be text-heavy, but it could be played with a bit. I think the arrangement of the rest of the text is good, too. > I'm not that fond of the picture of a mountain landscape either. It > seems a little out of place. The images in the banner could do with filling in the available area. Wonder if it'd be better to have uk-specific news and/or selected uk members' blog posts on the first page with an about link instead. Even though this new design is great for getting people involved in the group, is there a compelling reason to return to the site? Then again, is the page intended just for potential members? I know, e.g., posts are available elsewhere, but I'm lazy/time-constrained and want it all too easy. Good thing about this thread is I've actually paid a bit of attention to the site, because I didn't bother at first. Wonder how many people have been similarly slack in this regard, and why? -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
