June 1,
2001 (Lexington, Ky.) A new door to the University of Kentucky website
will be launched the weekend of June 1.
The new homepage was created with ease of use in
mind -- easier on the eyes and simpler to navigate.
In addition to the previous links there will be links
for Headlines & Highlights and Business & Industry. Placing the mouse over topical navigation
images will reveal pop-out menus from which users
can choose more specific sites and immediately click
to them.
A large composite image of researchers, faculty and
students will dominate the right quadrant while a
starlit sky surrounding Memorial Hall will serve as
the backdrop. The photos will be replaced as needed.
A facts window in the lower left quadrant will contain
several short and quick statistics about the University
and will fade in and out over a period of 24 seconds.
News headlines will be moved to a new separate page
where adequate space can be given to the topics of
the day.
