Highlight current project

Posted by Johnny K on Mon, 01/01/2007 - 23:29SFX.com-related Forum

Alot of people have been talking about improving spreadfirefox.com for the new year. People have been talking about getting more projects going and getting people to be more excited about participating in them.

I think that highlighting the current project would help. Maybe the main page could always have a note that explains what the current project is. I think this would increase awareness about projects, get people more involved, and generally create much more interest in projects. I believe it would also give all of us a reason to come up with more projects because no one's gonna want to see the same project posted up there for months.

I created a mockup just to give you a better idea of what I'm talking about.

Hi Johnny, a very timely post, happy new year :)

The SFx team are currently working on exactly this at the moment, there's been many-man-months of coding work already done we have a milestone time line that see's the site revamp rolling out somewhere in the middle of march, we are in the final stages of testing new features.

There will be a proper announcement here in SFx in due course but for now rest assured there's some momentum behind this initiative now and we'll see some cool improvements soon.

Very nice. I'm excited. If there's anything that we can do to help, let us know.

What IS the current project? Aren't there several?

That's the thing. I don't know.

Just the fact that we're not sure what the current project is, if there even is one, illustrates my point.
