Ah, this is a good idea, I should have written up a changelog for it. There's a few more changes, you can watch it starting at http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/temp/woot/page2.png then jump to http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/temp/woot/getfpo-2.png up to http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/temp/woot/getfpo-16.png hehe * the other options link directly under the download button + details about the download have been sized up (from about 7 pt to 12pt) * the entire 'what is live media?' block has been nuked * the how-to-upgrade block was rewritten and shortened to compete less with the other options block * the other options includes direct links to subpages, not just one main other options link, requiring less clicks for users who know which subpage to go to * an export regulations block has been added * I added an upgrade instructions resource to the resources area in the right sidebar - this is because some of the upgrade text was slimmed down and I wanted to make it more clear for people upgrading what to do (it'd point to the same thing as the 'more info' underneath the upgrade block does I am a little concerned about folks who might want to learn more about how to use live media before they download the iso. Maybe a link to more info about live media and how it works could go in the main paragraph at the top? > Something that might help keep the "Other options" area from > overwhelming the download button area would be to relocate the panda. > I think removing the "confused panda" is a good idea because it sends > a subtle signal that there's just too much going on in the page, and > maybe the user *should* be confused.

(I'm recalling > Barry Schwarz's TED Talk on the paradox of choice here.) I'm wondering if the Vanna White panda (ooh can I give it a dress?) pointing out the other options block would help draw attention to it since folks still seem to think it still is too de-emphasized... ~m _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
