The following is a direct quote (with actual images instead of image links) from a post I made on:
http://groups.drupal.org/node/10105#comment-34593

In acidfree galleries, having the vertical tabs horizontally laid out above the node content wasn't exactly the best placement.

I re did a theme and inserted vertical tabs to the left of the node content (floating the tabs to the left and the node content to the right with complementary widths.)

The image link displays how vertical tabs can be used to navigate between local tasks (I hope thats what local tasks are) of view and list options in acidfree galleries:

http://drupal.org/node/219584 is the thread

The title probably sounds alien for users new to Drupal so before I explain what the improvement is about, I'll explain what a code patch is in the CMS called Drupal.

In Drupal, (a CMS or more accurately a web construction toolkit) is constantly updated and improved every day. As with most software, a collection of improvements is released as a new version such as Drupal 5.1, Drupal 5.2 etc..

In between each release, the software code in Drupal is improved by creating and then applying what is known as a code patch.

In Drupal 5.6 and Drupal 6.0 when a user goes to a page and clicks a link called configure on the following page:

There seems to be no Usability Testing Labs in Kerala.

I have seen that National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad has a testing lab set up by a company called Netkraft in Bangalore but Netkraft has been bought up by Adea in 2004 and no longer exists.

I sure hope National Institute of Design in Bangalore has a usability lab set up or in the process of being set up and available for use by usability firms. Wire frames to improve the usability of a current website can be built without having usability test reports as a reference but the improvements just would not be as effective and limited to the views of the designer and client who would not always be able to address the needs of the end user of the product.

While looking around irc for site building support for http://indiandrupal.com, I got into a conversation about reworking Drupal's Admin system. Wordpress and Joomla seemed much more easy to get started with than Drupal although sticking Drupal leads to a lot more than Wordpress or Joomla have to offer.

One thing led to another and then we started off the following thread about reworking Drupal's Core Administration Interface: http://drupal.org/node/211075

Its about time I brought in my User Experience Architecture Skills into Drupal.org.

http://groups.drupal.org/usability
are groups I've joined regarding usability on drupal.org The coming days and weeks would tell how far my involvement in Drupal's User Experience would be.
