[Site] Template preview available
Hi all,
I've been preparing the template for ADS website today.
You can see a preview of it here :
http://people.apache.org/~pamarcelot/ls-site/
I applied it on LDAP Studio's site, as Emmanuel suggested.
I've been using the design preview we had received from Nykola.
Feel free to give me some feedback... ;)
Cheers,
P-A

This is because your screen is too wide, and you can't see a difference
between left and right parts of it :) (me neither, with my 24" screen :)
For round corners, we could use this cool script trick:

Exactly, I was talking about the blue gradient in the header :

Ah, I didn't know that. I am sorry that I raised a duplicate issue. I have

Lucky man! ;) Is it a 30" inches ?
As I said to Ersin, using a relative width for the content part will mess up
the header since it contains a gradient that can't be calculated at runtime
according to the size of the window.
So, if we relly want to have a relative width, we'll have to remove the
gradient from the header and then with some little tweak, we can have a full
relative website...
What do you think ?

Re: [Site] Template preview available

The template has been applied to Directory (TLP) and LDAP Studio websites.
We still have some work to do on it.
Here's a proposal for differentiating products between them. The idea is to
keep the same design for all sites but having for each product site, a
specific color (green for Apache DS, red for TripleSec, blue for LDAP
Studio). See the three header banners attached to this mail.
I think that should be enough for our visitors to know exactly where they
are...
What do you think ?

Thanks everyone for your feedback.
I've done some improvements based on your requests and comments.
- The header is now a little lighter than the previous version.
- New feathers.
- Since the C11 logo seems to please most of us, it's now on the header.
- The text is a little darker.
- To make the left menu stronger, I have set a background to it.
I made two versions for the left menu background.
Here are the urls :
http://people.apache.org/~pamarcelot/ls-site2/
http://people.apache.org/~pamarcelot/ls-site3/
The first design is still at http://people.apache.org/~pamarcelot/ls-site/
Once again. Don't hesitate to send your comments.

Great work, Pierre-Arnaud! It gives a very good impression of what would
be possible in the very near future. Thank You for trying this out!
And btw. I like the feathers from Nykola, they remind our visitors from
whom this software comes from ...

Hey, very cool site, looks very smooth. The right and bottom shadow is
perfect.
Could you make the normal font color (currently #888888) a bit more
darker, I think it would be better readable then.
Is there already a decision about the final logo? Perhaps you could do
one or two designs with the top rated logos?
And sorry, but I don't like the tow feathers in the background :-(
