Ok,
as already mentioned in the old thread I have set up a testpage to make the suggested (and some other minor) changes.
So we should decide, which layout we should use for the wiki.

a) the old one
b) the current
   http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi
c) the testpage
   http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?MatthiasPleh/TestPage
d) some other layout, anybody want create,


NOTE: the changes, I have made, are public and can changed by every wiki-user without registration! So everybody is welcome to improve not only the content but also the layout of the wiki!!

greets
Matthias

Both look good, I worry that the test page being similar to the digital mars site will confuse users though... This said, the links on the left hand site are all over the place on digital mars anyway, so maybe not.

I'd be happy with either one.

I do really like the nifty colorful left-hand-colors on "b" though. :)

I think both b) and c) look good, but if I had to choose, I'd go with b). I'd use a sans-serif font for the headings, though, like in c).

I would go for the layout "b" but with the font definitions from the "c".

That's a very good idea. I second this.

It seems, variant b) is the winner.
I've updated to b) with the font and font-size form c) and some minor changes.
I hope you love it.

Thanks! :)

In the most discussions I had with my coworkers, has been been mentioned, that a community, which even not have a beautiful wiki (besides other issues), can't be a serious project. So I decided to improve this. I hope this small step helps to make D more attractive to new users.
