Hello everyone,
The time has come; the first look of what PickyLinks may look like! We are officially in the development of the official PickyLinks. In our timeline, July is the foundation month. Releasing tease photos and later this month the first beta launch. Ready to see what PickyLinks may look like in the future? Let's look at 'em.
This is the first step in our PickyLinks adventure, so please note that these photos show possible features and appearances that are in early development and consideration and are subject to change.
*This is the first step in our PickyLinks adventure, so please note that these photos show possible features and appearances that are in early development and consideration and are subject to change.
Introducing the next homepage design. An all-new, clean, and curvy look. With brand new features. First, at the top is a new search option to search the web. Next is the once known as the Day Dashboard, which still appears in the full PickyLinks. Lastly for this photo is the most major. Instead of just 9 links on the homepage; we will integrate the Sites for A-Z feature right on the homepage. So you can easily find sites for A-Z.
*Subject to change.
When you, the user click on the drop-down menu, for example, the delivery drop-down menu; it will expand downward revealing the site for that subject. Our goal will be to fit as many sites on the menu but another goal is to keep it as clean and non-cluttered as possible. If the user wants to close the menu, they would click on the upper gray portion or the up arrow that is to the right.
In a recent update, we removed the Quick Links feature (redirecting links that are a specific page or part of that website) site-wide except for the homepage. In this next photo, we will show you how we might integrate Quick Links back for sites.
*Subject to change.
For some sites, a little arrow may be present. This is the Quick Links feature. All the user has to do the access the links is to either click on or hover on the arrow. Then a side menu will appear with the Quick Links.
*Subject to change.
Here's a bonus photo! Since development updates and other announcements will be within the Dev Blog; we probably should spice it up a little bit. Right?
So there you have it. A new clean, curvy design, bring back old features, and making your experience more enjoyable. That is what the future holds for PickyLinks. (hopefully).
