Description (last modified by saloynton)

Currently the 404 page is quite bare-bones. It could provide an overview of OMERO, perhaps tips for getting started, screenshots, etc.

Some possible ideas to take into consideration.

A further very simple example we could use is shown at:

https://confluence-vre.its.monash.edu.au/display/ANDSMonashDataCapture/Accessing+OMERO+Webadmin See screenshot attached.

A setup of the three buttons and a short description.

  • Webadmin
  • Webclient
  • Logout
  • Help (This might be a suitable place to have redirected to the OMERO site)

For the right hand strip we could use a set of suitable images that would cover a good range of images OMERO supports

I would only add that some simple fixes could be added to 4.3 while another ticket review the 404 page as a part of a larger effort. I.e. perhaps splitting this ticket would be appropriate.
