Any graphic/instructional designers here?

The following page is a potential redesign of the Research Wiki home page:

https://www.familysearch.org/learn/wiki ... dbox/Home4

In the area under the search box, I am attempting to explain how to most effectively search in the Research Wiki.

There is a lot of confusion from people who think you can find ancestors in the wiki (you can't), or who hit a specific town or county page but don't find much information there (the trick is to start broadly with a country or state and then drill down).

I think there is probably a way to explain this better graphically, and I was wondering if anyone here has graphic design skills who could help with this?

Thank you!
Janell

I do graphic design, I can see a couple of things that you could do to improve the lay out. Although the easiest way of dealing with this would be to add a few simple example searches below. FYI I deal with video and Photoshop not webpage design, but if i can help I will.
