Forum:CT:Main Page additions

After thinking about whether or not I wanted to suggest this, this evening I put together a little proposal for a few additions to the main page. You can find this proposal here. Essentially, these changes have been made:


 * An RSS feed from the official SWF blog has been added.
 * Depending on the amount of white space on the main page, as determined by the length of the FA and FW excerpts on the page, the number of blog entries can be increased or reduced. Right now it's set at six.
 * In order to prevent a lot of white space, the descriptions of our two partner websites have been cut down.
 * Little icons have been added to every section on the main page to give the page a little more character. Counter-clockwise from the left, the icons (for those who don't know) are the Old Republic, Galactic Empire, New Jedi Order, Rebel Alliance, Word Press (the host of our blog), Sith, Galactic Senate, and Old Jedi Order emblems. These can be changed if anyone has any better ideas.

I've sent Squishy Vic an e-mail asking him to make an Englibesh image for the blog header. Once that's done, and assuming you guys all like this, this can be put up on the main page.

Instead of having a vote, since that doesn't really seem necessary for something this minor, I'll instead just ask you guys for a consensus as to whether you like it or not. Thanks for considering it! - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 07:31, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
