Forum Graphics and Design
-
I think I have pretty good success at realizing the visual design and now I am fiddling with some details about the behavior that happens when one presses a button. Most people would just make those links, which would be trivial, but I am experimenting with an ability to navigate among some pages without causing the browser to refresh. Arguably, such navigation is not that valuable a feature for this application, but I am trying to build techniques for future work. I expect to front the design on our real home page in mere hours.

We= the Forum council and community. It's inclusive.
Fora = argh! I don't think this is a word that is known well enough to be on our splash page. At worst people won't understand, or will find the sentence pretentious. At best it'll detract attention from what we are trying to say.I'm not going to try and convince you to go with something grammatically incorrect. I guess we can skip that entire line? Or even skip the whole 2nd paragraph? Or if you all like it we can just keep the last draft from Jack. I'm okay with any of it am excited to see this looking good enough to go live with!

For any thought you may have in mind and want to communicate, there must be a clear way to express it in plain English. I find it frustrating that your response is to leave out some of the ideas you tried to articulate. I guess it is better to be somewhat "incorrect" than to be bullied into silence by a pedant. Maybe I am underestimating the ability of readers to see the intent behind writing that looks to me not to be availing itself of the precision that our glorious language offers.
OK, here's a pretty credible-looking reference that says you are right and I am wrong on "forums".

I believe this is resolved.
