Forum for site critque?

posts: 3665 United States

Is there any interest in starting a new formum for Tiki-ers to post their site for review/critque? I know there's already the template and design forum, but I see that as mainly a technical Q & A forum. I'm thinking of something more along the lines where folks can post UI and design critiques.

Anyone interested?

Seems like that would be appropriate on the new http://themes.tikiwiki.org site. I understand the Templates and Layouts forum at tikiwiki.org will also be moved to that site as soon as a script is written to do the job.

So far themes.tw.o looks a lot like a certain other Tiki site (just as an expedient way to get things going). The idea is to have a strong community site where themes are demoed, distributed, discussed, downloaded and dissed (apologies to Patches O'Hoolahan wink). Damian has a script for theme contributions to CVS to be archived and put into a gallery, I believe, which is said to be on the way. Intertiki should let themes.tw.o share other .tw.o logins.

Anyway, go ahead and register already at themes.tw.o if you don't want to wait for Intertiki, make a page outlining the idea, and we'll get the forum going along with anything else needed, if that sounds good to you.

Sounds good. Is there a large user base on themes.tikiwiki.org? I'll confess that I didn't even know it existed until now! At a minimum, should it be listed under "Thematic Tikiwikis" on the main portal page: http://tikiwiki.org ?

It's only existed for about 4 days. The userbase, now that you registered, is presently . . . 5! Well, that's counting the default admin user, so maybe I should say 4. wink Once Intertiki is set up, it'll share tikiwiki.org's userbase in the log-in sense, though people will have to be made aware of it. There's been no effort to publicize it yet because it is still getting put together, features turned on, etc. Got to decide on things like how to arrange Categories and so on and best practices for everything. It will be listed as a "Thematic Tikiwiki" in due time.

I'll make a forum there for site discussion. (Really, things are just getting under way. smile)
