As some of you may or may not have noticed from my sig, I’ve recently found myself an admin/guru/et.al. at a new little site - CypherLabs. We’re coming along pretty well, and I’m happy thus far, but we need more content.
This, my dear Dopers, is where you come in. Suggest to me. The basic idea behind our creation of the site is to make home (computing, mostly) technology more accesible to the masses with less complicated information than anything we could find out there. What more can we do to accomplish this? (We’re currently working on history of computing/geekdom articles and glossaries for common terms, but it doesn’t feel like enough to me.) What other content would you like to see at a place like this? Do you like the design? If it were your site, what would you change? Any other suggestions? All constructive suggestions and/or comments will be appreciated, and many thanks given in advance.
Just a minor suggestion: Maybe you could put your email address, or AN email address somewhere on the page, which people could email to ask questions and such about your site. One of the most important things you can do for a webpage is make sure the “communication link” between audience and organization is always intact.
Looks pretty good though. (and interesting)
With the kahki tones, it looks a bit military (initially).
Also, the size of the text in pixels is a little hard to read.
These are opinions and not crits.
Apart from that, looks very slick and nicely lined up.
We’ll be working on the text size this weekend. We’re still debating the khaki look (I don’t like it, personally, but I may not win that one). If nothing else, we’ll probably enable the option of setting themes for reigstered users.
