Small change that'd go long way 2011-11-06 20:15:24

Hi, I'm Paul.
I'm just a voice actor and I have nothing to do with the art forum.
Recently however I looked on the website, something started to bother me and I think that it would not take a lot of effort from the NG web designers to change that, yet would go a long way in promoting the art portal.

If you've got a keen eye you might've noticed the suggestion already.

Basically - We got the golden banners up top for "Flash Portal", "Audio Portal" and ... "Art".
For a newcomer, it takes a while to figure it out that the website actually has this sort of section.
It might seem trivial and it may be because I'm on Marketing studies(lol), but I think it's actually fairly significant. Even more so, the "Art" golden button takes the least space out of all these.

My suggestion is therefore, to simply change the golden banner "ART" to "ART PORTAL" like the other two. If necessary, compress the sizes of all buttons to accomodate the change.

Would breathe in a little more popularity into the Art Portal in the long run.

What say you guys?

Hi, my name is also Paul. Welcome to the Art Forum! I must say you present a pretty good idea regarding the art portal, as I agree it would very well increase it's popularity even at a small percentage. I know there was a thread somewhere which allows you to post your suggestions to the staff but I can't remember.

But otherwise a very good suggestion in my opinion.

I'm pretty sure the banner is among the many things that will change with the redesign, when it comes.

The art portal is a fairly new addition, so they squeezed it into the existing layout knowing that a full redesign was on the horizon. Sadly that's taken longer than anticipated... but 100% certain it will be properly incorporated and showcased at that time.

This would normally belong in wi/ht, but since there's not really anything to discuss, we'll just lock this up!
