Redesign of the www.rockbox.org front page

[sko]

Hi, I've seen this thread first time now, and I'm very excited! This design looks really great!

+1 for pixelma's mockups.

Please refrain from using odd formatting such as needless colours, font size changes, bold/italic/etc formatting, and special characters when they are not needed. This makes the conversation harder to follow by many people and can be quite painful on the eyes.  The ability to perform these sorts of formatting exists as it can be used sparingly help highlight information.

In the spirit of showing you can't please all the people all the time - I prefer macku's layouts to pixelma's modified versions. Sorry!

[Phalangees]

Although I really don't have any say in this at all, as an average rockbox user, I prefer macku's layout as well.

[GodEater]

As an "average rockbox user" you're kind of who the site redesign is being aimed at. The "developer's bit" that has been mentioned elsewhere in the thread is really the bit you don't get a say in

[Strife89]

So this page is the work-in-progress redesign, then?

I say keep the Subversion list on the home page. Although I'm simply a user, I look at it daily, and I almost never update Rockbox until I see a change there that fixes something that's been bothering me, or adds a new feature that interests me. Otherwise, it's like a progress bar.

is there somewhere on the wiki this is talked about? im thinking the information i put should be on the wiki so it doesnt get lost in the forums. just wondering what everybody else thinks. thats how we came to a conclusion of the new default theme.

[GodEater]

No, all the discussion has been here.

The "work in progress" is now here : http://new.rockbox.org/ .

You'll note there is a subversion link at the top there.

[psycho_maniac]

sweet. the new site will take some getting used to...just wondering since the new site seems to have a new somewhat color theme. will the forum also be getting a new color theme?

How do I create photos for missing targets?
Is there a procedure?

Do we really want SVN commits hidden by default on the new site?  I like the idea of showing how active our project is on the front page.
