Have a good look at this; it looks quite good, i think. Maybe User:JCraw will make changes to it? James S 01:16, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
- Hi - WAY too large, but otherwise kind of neat. The font size should be less than or equal to the text size for the body of the article. These navigational templates should not be obtrusive - they should not appear more important than the text. Also, this kind of thing should be discussed by more editors than just us. I will try to bring some more people in on this. PAR 06:28, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bit big..
- It's a bit big, yeah. I think smaller fonts would make it a treat!

Here's a mockup i did. Looks nicer? J O R D A N [talk ] 13:30, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

- Yes, but the beakers and chemicals are more thermodynamic. How about this? PAR 15:25, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

- I really like the current template with the same font size and no graphic because screen space is often at a premium for me. Having said that, if the other boys and girls in science are doing something similar with their templates then I guess people into thermo should also, but I'm not sure that's happening. Imagining all the entries in Template:Thermodynamic_cycles with that font and a graphic and a shaded box makes me cringe. I want templates to be small and unobtrusive so I'll use them without resenting them. Flying Jazz 00:17, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- Never mind then. Personally, that box ALONE makes me cringe. J O R D A N [talk ] 09:41, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

- I agree with Flying Jazz - Any new template must not be wider than the present template. A bit longer, ok, but only by 20-30 pixels. Font size should not be smaller than present. Things should be vertically aligned, not centered, so if somebody is searching an alphabetic list, their eyes don't have to dance around. Other than that, anything to make it look better is ok with me. PAR 13:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
