    I’ve done 2 concept mockups looking at the front and a simple article post at this stage. I think the API / template section also needs attention but trying to get some general concepts over at this point so haven’t done that one yet.

    These are just UI mockups no design elements.

    *Couldn’t upload images here so linking in from Skitch hope that is groovy.

    I like it. We may want to swap out the search for something else, at least until the WordPress core search is improved. Maybe we can have it pull off some multi-taxonomy queries and have a drop-down for the component instead.

    I’ll put together an outline of the architecture I have swimming in my head, and we’ll see if you can translate my ramblings into structure. :)

    I would have just main links to sections on front

    Beginner box -> links to a beginner section with links below. I can see the front page only showing a few links and people throwing there hands up and say they can’t find anything

    —Beginner Section–

    Simply for reference – mercim gave some good outlines and there may be further kernals of an idea that could help or inspire?

    p.s forgive if this is not the right thread for this.

    Has anything more been discussed about this since it was brought up in september?

    for a suggestion: would it work better by modifying the grey header and replacing it with the current orange buddypress.org header (they seem to look about the same height) possibly also making the article title links orange and making it fit into the buddypress.org design more? Currently it feels like your leaving buddypress and stepping onto an external website as the designs are completely different and i believe that should be addressed in the redesign.
