I like it . . . mostly

Remove the notion of links to companies. On average, the articles on companies just aren't good enough.

Well, on average the articles on individual cameras aren't good enough either, but with models the newcomer can always tell himself that he has been unlucky. Having seen feeble articles on two or three companies, the newcomer can't tell himself this.

I like the idea of "articles of the month", but I fear that six per month is pushing it. There aren't many more good articles where those came from! I'd take out "pretty article" and try to prettify the other articles. (OK, OK, I'll try to remember to blow the dust off my digicam and take some photos of my toys.) -- Hoary 08:30, 26 August 2006 (EDT)

This main page is better, but only indexing cameras alphabetically leaves us with a rather dry main page. Maybe we can introduce some of our categories here: "TLR, folder, digital"... Or we could categorize by period; "1960's SLR". I feel this would allow visitors to use this site in more than one way. What I like especially about the new design is that is highlights the good articles. --driesvandenelzen 12:26, 26 August 2006 (EDT)
