  Re: New homepage for LUGNET
 
(...) Ow, my brain! In seriousness, one of the problems with this design is difficulty of expansion. If some new vital site comes out, where does it fit in? (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: New homepage for LUGNET
 
(...) If I remember right, the initial news rating system *was* 0-10, and it didn't work very well. Too many options, too much work. (...) I'm not sure this is a good thing. It can lead to a sort of "clique" of Famous Posters and interesting things (...) (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general)

(...) (snip) (...) I agree. (...) Great idea! I could help with the translation to French. (more seriously than I did for "schleim" at PDX with John Neal! ;D) (...) That would be interesting. (...) Pierre (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general, FTX)

No, the first thing a first-time visitor sees should tell something about the available places to go -- not display only icons. Icons are not language, they are little puzzles that you have to figure out. (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general, FTX)

Hey, WOW! A new LUGNET site! :> This is GREAT. I like the one that is hear but a change can be good! Out of curiosity, what brought upon these interesting thoughts of changing the site? I design websites often, well actually almost everyday I am (...) (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: New homepage for LUGNET
 
(...) I agree with Gary, except for one big thing. Precise CSS positioning that's cross-browser compatible (IE, Mozilla, Opera, Netscape, Mac) is a pain royalé, sitting right next to impossible. I've done it and it's nuts. Unless you don't care if (...) (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general, FTX)

The more that can be done via CSS instead of dynamic content on the server, too, the better. --Todd (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) It may be off topic, but I think it would be very cool if the site was designed using CSS layout, i.e. no nested tables. A great example site is: (URL) would make site development very straightforward, and allow people to switch look and feels (...)

(...) Ya, exactly! Some kind of attributes grid or "help me locate" or "what's out there" layout is needed. (...) Excellent, excellent, excellent idea. Yes! The homepage ought to have several languages available. (...) That could be something for (...) (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.general, FTX)
