Sadly, I must agree with Tim. <div>Sadly because I know the effort made by the GRASS team to have the new site out, but I cannot object Tim's points...</div><div><br></div><div>giovanni</div><div><br></div><div>PS: @Tim, I wasn't aware of the ongoing work to switch to a boostrap based sphinx theme.

Hi<div><br></div><div>Yes I have seen it. With no disrespect to the GRASS folks I think it has enough problems that I would not like to copy it on our site. My (hopefully) constructive criticisms:</div><div><br></div><div>
* its very busy</div><div>* it doesnt have good whitespace balance e.g. module of the day box with screenshots box floating to the right</div><div>* I love jquery but jquery css is looking old already</div><div>* there are too many underlines [ ] >> > and other characters that distract attention and make it look not so friendly</div>
<div>* the panels on the left (search, latest news, map) should have been put to the right</div><div>* there is too much white space in the heading area</div><div>* the logo really needs a refresh</div><div>* the heavy green bars distract your eye away from the content</div>
<div>* there are too many different font sizes and font styles</div><div>* the drop down menus feel visually disconnected from the tabs the spring from and menus from tabs just feels kinda wierd</div><div><br></div><div>
In short it could really use a designer to introduce balance, correct emphasis and remove distractions</div>
<div><br></div><div>As such I would not be supportive of using it for our site I suggest to wait for the sphinx theme based on bootstrap to come out and then start moving our web content into that. We will do some customisations for the QGIS front page and Richard has been making awesome progress in getting a well put together bootstrap based sphinx theme in place for us when we can then skin using any bootstrap theme (e.g. checkout some of the themes at <a href="http://bootswatch.com/" target="_blank">http://bootswatch.com/</a>).<br>
</div><div><br></div><div>So -1 from me</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div>Tim</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 14, 2012 at 12:14 AM, Werner Macho <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:werner.macho@gmail.com" target="_blank">werner.macho@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
Anyone seen the new GRASS Webpage?<br>
I really like the clean and intuitive style with lots of information<br>
presented clearly on the top page ..<br>
Probably we can adapt it to "our" new webpage?<br>
It even looks good on mobile phones ..<br>
<br>
Opinions on that?<br>
<br>
kind regards<br>
Werner<br>
