Tobias, I've been thinking about what you said. A restructure would work. We could group them under general buttons: News Clipart Information Help News - no change Clipart - goes directly to browse, with submenus of: <ul><li>Sets</li><li>Upload</li><li>Downloads</li></ul>Information - goes directly to About, with submenus of: <ul><li>People</li><li>Get Involved </li><li>Forums (in the distant future) </li></ul>Help - the new help page I'm thinking of What do you all think about this? It sounds like you guys do want the help page on the Beta Website? Am I reading your responses correctly? Forums: I see forums as a possibilty in the future, however my focus is getting the Beta Version released. Since I'm not working directly on the website by coding and programming, I can't say when we'll be able to approach including Forums...but that idea is not forgotten. <div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, May 15, 2009 at 7:37 PM, Tobias Jakobs <<a href="mailto:tobias.jakobs@googlemail.com">tobias.jakobs@googlemail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi! Yes, the idea is good. But I think we are getting to much buttons there. We alseady have 8 and usuly the usabitlity rukle is not to have more then 7 items in an menu. Perhaps the best idea is to restrucrure the compleat menu.
