I would like to reorganize the look of the main page - into a main introductory paragraph with two columns underneath. That would let most users see all the links on one screen. Also I strongly recommend adding the <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki> tag to the top of the page to get rid of the silly contents box. Perhaps use a template to format the title. I'd be happy to do it, but I don't want to jump in and upset anyone. | I would like to reorganize the look of the main page - into a main introductory paragraph with two columns underneath.

We should probably reduce the amount of subnavigation on the main page. There's something to be said for immediate drilling down, but the more junk there is on the first page, the more overwhelming it will be to newbies... who this will be most useful for. --mahuti 13:20, 27 February 2006 (EST)
I moved the full table of contents to its own page and listed the main sections here. It's still just as confusing for noobs though, it really needs a friendly introductory paragraph with a couple of links to get people started. --JoyMonkey 13:56, 27 February 2006 (EST)
Seems the Miscellaneous link is misaligned to "Miscellaneous_.28for_now.3F.29". Changing so it links to "Miscellaneous" on the contents page. CoachMcGuirk 16:24, 2 March 2006 (EST)
Oh yeah, I changed the Misc link on the Contents page but forgot to change the link on the Main Page. D'oh! --JoyMonkey 16:27, 2 March 2006 (EST)
Look on the [Jukebox Page]. This should go this way, wich is going being nicely.
