Talk:Main Page Design 1

Design Brief
Okay time to get out the cookies (a British saying cookies instead of buscuits is odd huh?) and sit here and nibble on them while I jot a few things down. Okay here is the criteria so far:


 * 1) ... The Logo...
 * 2) Don't loose contents section, but redesign it.
 * 3) Did you know... - Keep.
 * 4) No red links! So whatever is linked to from main page has to be there for sure.
 * 5) Links to sites... now I want this at the bottom of the page, where there is plenty of room. We could have a seperate page... But in my experience with sites no one reads them.  Defeats the point.  (''Yum these cookies are good!').
 * 6) Quote of the day. Don't know how this works, don't understand, there is no expo for it... Loose it!
 * 7) ...What Logo...? T_T
 * 8) Spoiler warnings. Got it I'll add that.
 * 9) Selection of featured articles. I'm looking at 6 to start out with... Crew member... crew/organisation... A place.... (cookies =^.^=)... A devil Fruit... And 2 other more random things.  Perhaps a chapter or a episode.
 * 10) New colour scheme. I'll start out with our current one, but will change it accordingly.
 * 11) Better link to Wikipedia.
 * 12) ... We need a Logo!

(Munch, munch...)My first thoughts are that we have a lot to go through... It isn't going to work any other way unless templates are involved. I'd like to keep it as simple as possible, Joekido's page was great, but it took all afternoon to fix it due to its complex design. One-Winged Hawk 12:43, 23 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Umm, I think my post on selection of featured articles may have somewhat been misterinterpreted. I kinda meant along the lines of us carefully selecting a featured article through elections and stuff. I kinda didn't meant for us to have more than one featured article but that's still a good idea. More stuff on display means more interesr.


 * Anyway, here are some main page designs that may give some inspiration. We don't nessassarily have to rip them, just see how they do things.


 * Harry Potter, Matrix, Where's Waldo,Final Fantasy

 * Aye, I've been looking at other Wikias today. I have a lot  of mixed ideas running through my head right now.  Trying to pull one single idea is the problem right now.  One-Winged Hawk 22:30, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
