"The main problem with the existing homepage was that, besides the most recent posts, other content, once it aged and 'fell off' the front page, was then difficult to discover. The new design makes more use of available screen 'real estate', is visually much richer, and reorganizes 18 years of posts, so that even older long-forgotten posts are more easily found."
"We've also redesigned the various Font Games and added another two, including a timed version of Font Game Level 1 and a Graphic Design multiple choice quiz. We're still working to reformat some older posts, especially those with custom layouts, designed long before that kind of thing was natively possible in WordPress. There will be some broken links and missing images here and there, but we're working on it."
The ILT blog launched in 2007 and was last redesigned in 2015. Over the past decade the project added a Font Store, ILT Academy, and ILT Trust. The homepage redesign addresses discovery issues by reorganizing 18 years of posts so older content is easier to find. The new layout uses available screen space more effectively and provides a richer visual presentation. The Font Games were redesigned and two new games were added, including a timed Font Game Level 1 and a Graphic Design multiple choice quiz. Older posts with custom layouts are being reformatted and some broken links and missing images remain during the transition.
