Talk:Topics For Ph.D. Prep Track Members

This is an idea of how we could organize this page. I tried to stick with the theme of the Main Page, and I also regrouped the topics on this page. Ideas? --Emetts 09:48, 26 December 2008 (MST)

Looks pretty good. I think the top banner needs some improvement. I don't mind the color and such, but lets change the logo on the right to be something for the Ph.D. prep track and not just the BYU one. Also, let's link that new logo back to the main page (this will help with search rankings and such). As for the organization, I don't have a problem. I still think we need to do some serious thinking about how to organize all of these information pages. I'm not sure I have a solution yet on how to do it...Daw44 09:59, 26 December 2008 (MST)

I've edited the headers. Now that I've got the general format of the images, it wouldn't be difficult to do something similar on other pages. I'm not sure how to link the logos back to the main page, but I'll continue to think about how we can re-organize the information pages. As for the general look on this page, what are your thoughts? --Emetts 08:36, 30 December 2008 (MST)

I looked on mediawiki, but was unable to find a way to link photos back to pages. You could try playing around with a redirect to get it to work (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page#Links_and_URLs). Spuhlmann
