[Lucene.Net] [jira] Commented: (LUCENENET-403) Improve site layout and design

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENENET-403?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12998248#comment-12998248 ] 

Prescott Nasser commented on LUCENENET-403:
-------------------------------------------

Some sites that we are considering using as a base:

http://www.zeromq.org/ - might be too simple for our needs, but like the cleanlyness
https://bitbucket.org/ - dash of color, banner gives ample room for a call to action.
http://flask.pocoo.org/ - another rather clean layout
http://www.openoffice.org/ - I'm not a huge fan, but the call's to action are in your face, incorporating something like that is high on my list
http://grafico.kilianvalkhof.com/ - really clean, probably too gray, not really an area to provide some navigation
http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/

If you have thoughts, comments, etc post them here. I'm going to be working on this a lot in the next few days. Again, this will be temporary until we get the logo contest completed, and then we will likely redesign again.

> Improve the website layout and design. Current staging design is based off an extremely simplistic implementation of Apache CMS basic template using the default Apache CMS CSS styling. Let's try to make it look better and have a more intuitive navigational structure.
