Anyway, here it is: > http://www.suse.de/~fs/opensuse/splash_white.html That's nice! How about using a bigger openSUSE logo? And maybe adding some stats on each wiki (like "1000+ pages") below each language, using smaller letters of course. We could also try to place a direct link to download.openSUSE.org on the splash / portal page, to always highlight the latests version and get people to download openSUSE! But adding a seach box to it is much more important IMO :) Regards Christoph --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
