After about a month in progress, we have finally launched a huge Learn Firefox redesign! Our focus was to bring a graphical appeal to the site since it is a “visual guide to the Firefox web browser,” and we believe that we’ve successfully done that.
For those of you who haven’t visited Learn Firefox yet there has never been a better time. Almost 100 Firefox extensions have been reviewed thus far, and screenshots of over 200 themes have been taken. Of course, at the center of all this are the countless guides that have been created to help new Firefox users learn the ropes.
Here’s a list of what’s new:
- New design with simplicity in mind
- Significant speed improvements
- Works great in all the popular browsers
- Each category has the posts broken up into “Guides” and “Extensions.”
- Mini navigation buttons are located on the bottom of every page (except for the homepage for obvious reasons)
We would like to welcome you to the new Learn Firefox! This is quickly becoming a hub for new and existing Firefox users alike, and you can always subscribe to the feed to stay up-to-date with the latest articles. The next time you know someone switching to Firefox, point them in our direction so that we can help them along!
Note: We’re still in the process of updating some of the graphics on this blog, but that should be done shortly.
Many thanks to Ryan & Ashley for creating the brand new design!
The site looks very refreshing indeed. Not too cluttered but still plenty of information. well done mates.
Glad you like it Tinhed! That’s exactly what we were going for.
i took a quick look at the site, for actually the first time i think, and it looks great.
in fact, this type of easy to understand and navigate design is just what firefox needs to attract the less tech savvy crowed.
so just out of curiosity, do you have any sort of connection with the mozilla guys? which i think are doing some collaborative support project now.
They have contacted us with a request to republish all of our content, but we weren’t too fond of the idea of givin’ up all the work we’ve put into the site. I’m sure we’ll remain in talks with them though.
i thought that would be it. but hey, it’s nice to be asked
and maybe you could work something out, cause at least from the design of the site point of view, it is much more appealing, in my opinion, to internet newbies to use it without being scared.
so great job.
