UOGuide talk:Test Main Page

Main Page Update

Initially I was only going to add in the 3 new sections (Featured Establishments, Featured Guilds and Skill of the Week) but now it is turning out to be the full revamp I mentioned a short time ago. I've figured out how to remove the redundant "Main page" header and now there is a bit more room up top. A new graphic needs to be made where I have put the temporary one used in the corner (which by the way, if anyone wants to make a new one of that also it would be good).

In addition I am changing the Featured Guilds to a Point of Interest category. Same weekly rotation but it will feature locations around Britannia. The first location I have in mind is the Lost Lands lighthouse. This will be a good way to add in-game locations to UOGuide and show them off.

I really want to get this whole revamp done in about a week because I will be including it in a press release to all UO websites. So if anyone has ideas or suggestions now is the time to get them in. - JC the Builder 10:26, 28 January 2008 (PST)

My first pass at this. See if you like it any. If nothing else, I cleaned up the code and removed some of the...artifacts...from where you got the...idea...for that layout. *cough* I figure I'll try out a few other design changes this week, so this isn't my final contribution. --Cogniac 19:27, 28 January 2008 (PST)
I don't really like it. It is really boxy and I wanted to keep that image at the top right for now. Eventually I will update the style and probably move that into it somewhere. Also I think UO News should take precidence over Featured Content because (ideally) it will be changing more often. - JC the Builder 19:46, 28 January 2008 (PST)
