<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All: I’ve been working with Howard and Jeff on
applying a new look and feel to the MapServer website. The feedback received
earlier<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>on the logo was positive so this is all based on that.
A preview based on the 5.4 docs trunk is at <a
href="http://maps.dnr.state.mn.us/testing/ms_preview/">http://maps.dnr.state.mn.us/testing/ms_preview/</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Web design by committee is impossible so I’d like to
call for a vote to roll this design out “as is” in the 5.6 branch
docs. Tweaks to the CSS can <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>always be made as necessary. We’ve also talked about
other homepage content changes but that will happen later.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Notes:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:22.5pt;text-indent:-.25in;
mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>-<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>
</span></span><![endif]>The color scheme is based on the logo colors. The red
at the bottom is from a triadic scheme using the blue and green in the logo (I
like color).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:22.5pt;text-indent:-.25in;
mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>-<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>
</span></span><![endif]>The font is Futura, I liked the lower-case “a”
especially… (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futura_%28typeface%29)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’ll start with a enthusiastic +1.<o:p></o:p></p>
