That is very good thinking @Silvia! Your idea is way better than what we have on the page right now. I will look at it a bit deeper and get back soon.
Hi, ok, i collected next to @Silvia s ideas some more feedback from other people and tried to implement it in the website. So it has changed a bit.
Please check and tell me what I have missed. http://oscedays.org

Looks much better indeed
Hi I think that
- the mouseover state on the + would be better as the default (shown on non-mouseover too). The + characters are somewhat misplaced in many of the grid-ish structures. (We could also just draw a box around them , but I think showing the more information rich and fits-the-layout box around makes sense)
- Forum ("Not an Organizer? Add yourself to our network, engage with us in our FORUM*) should not have a google-maps-pin-needle thing as an icon. What about a speech bubble? Or do away with both icons here (the pin needle and the OSCE logo below "Mission statement)
(If you give me access to the code I can submit a suggstion with these changes)
Hi @Jan_D - cool. I will send you login-in details for the sandbox. There you can test what you can do first.
btw. you are absolutely right with the needle. Changed it as suggested to test:
Had a good session with @Jan_D tonight. Think we managed to do some improvements.
Update: And I spent some more hours to improve the page. I think now we have finally a good page
I added 4 sentences - under “Partners” “Challenge Sponsors” & “Mentors” – Could a native speaker please check them and post the correct version if necessary. @TechnicalNature @sharmarval @Silvia @Gien
Mentors:
‘Our mentors have expertise in many fields and will be available online to support the
global community.’
Partners
‘A big thank you to our partners.’
Challenge Sponsor
Q: are these the ‘Big Five’ challenges (the open list of questions) we talked about last night? Or are these different?
Thanks! – Will do the changes soon.
Nope, this Challenges are the one we try to “sell” to sponsors. It is in one of our sponsorship packages - that you can as a company have a challenge, we help to frame it and advertise it.
Ah, okay…in that case, can we change the text to:
Hot-topic Challenges from Our Sponsors
Or
Headline Challenges from Our Sponsors
Or
Challenges from Our Global Sponsors
Or something like this.
##Website Updated May 15
Ok, the call for cities is closed. I redesigned the whole webpage. I think I managed to make it more beautiful, more clear, give it a better structure and menu. And the “Global Challenges” and the “Mentorship Program” is added.
I had to erase the stories from 2015 from the main page. They made the page too heavy. I integrated them into the documentation of 2015 and placed a prominent link to the documentation on the main page.
Feedback and suggestions as always welcome.
