Forum:Creating a decent front page?

Hi, I am the admin and virtually the sole contributor to the Labyrinth Wiki.

I have assembled a fair number of high quality pages, but so far haven't really had many consistent contributions from others. I really want to spruce up my front page as it's currently very, very basic, but I have basically no idea where to begin. I've tried searching for starter guides and advice on templates for front pages, but can find nothing. I have also tried copying code for templates from other wikis to use as a starting point, however the codes just don't work in most cases.

I'm very confused as to how I go about setting up a nice looking front page, so would appreciate any help. I'm looking at creating something like what the Narnia Wiki has.

Any advice would be appreciated! I've worked really hard to build the wiki up from 5 pages to 70 pages, and feel it would be a real shame if no one else feels encouraged to participate in the site.

 * Narnia wiki is largely done with images. The banners are just uploaded files. You would have yo make your own if you wanted to do something like that. have a look around different wikis though, see what you like, what you dont like and create something new using bits of wikis you like. You can also ask the Content Team for help.--
