  (http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Templates_online_features), in detail this mean:

  • the three topics "Business", "Education" and "Private" will be put below each other according to the Mock up
  • the buttons of those three entries will become the light blue color as todays items "Highest Rated" has for exmaple
  • the image preview right to the categorys will change from time to time and comes from the highest rated templates
  • next to it on the right, a general marketing text from Kay Koll will be displayed
  • below these items we will have the headlines "Highest Rated", "Most Popular" and "Most Recent" (in this order), those items will be text only, no buttons and not clickable
  • the list of templates below each category will receive one singe frame border per category, so at the end we will see three frames
  • within the frames the Templates will be listed, in front of them we will display the corresponding document icon as today, the text will be shortened and ends with "..." to have a fixed with for each row ** at the end of each row a "More..." link will be shown
  • the corners of the frames will all be rounded
  • the search box will stay in the left area
