Hi, after a few months I have to get again into RIFE and while studying the homepage I noticed that RIFE's front page is pretty overloaded and IMHO unfriendly.
It's simply too much text that overwhelms the reader. Even I, who grokked RIFE at least a bit have problems to understand the first paragraph. Then there are simply too many bullets. To see the graphic I have to scroll even on my pretty high resolution. Finally "Why RIFE's web engine?" belongs IMHO on an own sub-page on it's own. My suggestion would be: A shorter, friendlier first paragraph which shall spark interest on RIFE. Then only a few bullets with the most important features of RIFE and a "More" link which might contain them all (for my sake just hidden using JavaScript). Anyway, they are inside "Features" in any case, so it might be not necessary at all. Then there should be an "Overview" page which might contain the graphic of the stack and most of the text which is on the front page now. I think it's no use to write (nearly) all features on the homepage when only few people are going to read it completely anyway. I'd vote for a bigger font and catchier phrases which would be backed by other pages. I'd not go as far as the RoR guys went, but the direction would be fine. Just my 2ยข. -hs _______________________________________________ Rife-users mailing list Rife-users@uwyn.com http://lists.uwyn.com/mailman/listinfo/rife-users
