Hi mercime thanks for your work on the welcome screen.

A few suggestions:

1/ the {image} part.
I think the Uploader UI is not new, it's basically the 2.3 one adapted to Cover Images. So if we want to put the cover image into the featured part, i suggest to show a screencap of a Group's header having a cover image. The group could be "BuddyPress Group", the group's photo > BuddyPress logo and the cover image could be any photo. So the title for this part would be "Cover Images for Groups & Members"
In the detailled explanation maybe remove 'The cover image UI is another example....." to only keep learn more link.

2/ The finer points.
I think we shouldn't talk about the UX improvements on the Activity Post Form.

  • Because this arrived into core yesterday and i'm not completely sure there won't be any difficulty with some themes. I'm thinking about BP Default for instance.
  • Improvements about the Textarea (Autosize) has been delayed to 2.5 i think.

But that's a personal fear. If everyone agree to add this, i'm ok.

Instead i think i would talk about the Accessibility improvements you've been working on. Because like having BuddyPress in our native language, i think this topic is another important one.

Nice layouts, @mercime! I like 1 and 2 the best, but if I had to pick, I prefer 1.

I think we're on the right lines with the features / text / graphics for this screen.

+1. This looks great!

Thank you for your feedback @imath, @DJPaul, and @boonebgorges :)

Per comments above, attached is a new screenshot of the welcome screen incorporating your comments. Also attached are two improved graphics for the Member Type (added Required) and the Companion Stylesheets (where I removed an avatar). Will be uploading the graphics for the accessibility upgrade soon.
