| :As I understand it, {{tl|Box-header-watch}} already can do what you describe, except for rounded corners, which don't render for all browsers. At the Kivapedia Main Page, I made the "edit" link color the same as the header background, so readers wouldn't notice, but admins had quick edit access. A parameter like that could be added here. --[[User:RichardF|RichardF]] 07:43, 8 December 2011 (PST) | | :As I understand it, {{tl|Box-header-watch}} already can do what you describe, except for rounded corners, which don't render for all browsers.

| ::Do you know if the round corner rendering is failsafe? I.e. if it doesn't render, does it still come out looking decent in that browser?

| ::The 3D effects seem to be important too, as with the shadows around the edges of the box above. I was talking with an old friend who does web development, and he mentioned using 3D effects on the edges of a page. And of course we evolved to look at 3D objects :-). --[[User:Chriswaterguy|Chriswaterguy]] 23:17, 18 December 2011 (PST)

| :Looking at {{tl|pv project}}, I was thinking it would help to move the "v • d • e" links into the hidden part of the template. I find my eye is drawn to them, and my brain has to process them before I realize that they're not relevant to what I want right now. If they're placed at the bottom of the template, there's even an argument for expanding the links to say "view template • discuss • edit". Thoughts? --[[User:Chriswaterguy|Chriswaterguy]] 23:21, 18 December 2011 (PST)

| A friend of Appropedia, Peter Campbell of Greenlivingpedia, has made a Google Site - "Kitesurfing Handbook" It has some simple but interesting usability features, as seen at the [http://kitesurfing-handbook.peterskiteboarding.com/progression/the-basics Basics] page:
| |
| * "Page at a glance" box. I really like this - I think it really helps the viewer to see what's going on.
| |
| * "Previous-Home-Next" buttons at bottom. Relevant to some sets of pages.
