IVOA Landing page review (Sep 2022)

From Bruce for the Exec: Does the web page design and content convey the sense that the IVOA is an important and dynamic body in astronomy?

    • I think it looks better overall.
    • The current page had 2 sets of pointers (top and bottom) to the underlying groups & questions - that could cause confusion and the new page gets it to one.
    • I think the IVOA News and Upcoming Meetings could use a different font/size/spacing to make them stand out more.
    • I’m not a fan of flipping pictures and suggest that changing images is by hitting the arrow if you are interested to see them.
    • The banner with International Virtual Observatory Alliance needs a brief statement … something like - “Building FAIR standards for access and analysis of astronomical data.” I think it grounds people when they come to the landing page to know where they are.

    • Pretty. But on my screen, the lovely JWST image takes up all the space so you have to scroll down to get anything else. It should be smaller.
    • With some of that space, a snapshot of something pretty from the newsletter would be good to add in the news box.
    • Also agree it is missing a brief statement of purpose.
