Hi
I want you to show completely new layout of gimp.org instead of this
one at next.gimp.org
This is just a prototape.
Here's a link
http://ps6.webd.pl/gimpweb/gimp_org.png
It is over 600kb png file so be patient
EB> I like it, it's better than the current one. But I suggest some changes:
EB> 1) there's too much wasted space on the top. this is the place that users
EB> see first, and currently it's a green bg. The dark menu should be on top.
EB> 2) the text should be text, not images. This font looks nice, but it seems
EB> not common. I haven't read the html, but it shouldn't be implemented as
EB> images just to use that font. This allows for users to change size and even
EB> the font (from useit).
EB> 3) there's 2 menus that look similar. it's better to have just one or make
EB> two menus with clearly different purposes.
EB> 4) -minor- there's 3 green bgs. Why not use an image bg and a solid color
EB> bg?
EB> 5) -minor- the dark menu could be horizontal (placed on top of the website).
EB> also there's no need to label it "menu". the blueish color may be used as a
EB> hover effect.
EB> 6) there's no graphics, at minimum place a logo that links to the
EB> /index.html (from useit, in /index.html it shouldn't be a link) and
EB> -optional- some screenshots.
1.Yes, the top is too big but I can be easily reduced by almost a half.
2. But it looks nice however it be changed with more common font
3. As a matter of fact submenu is optional too.
4,5,6 This is just prototype
