Just a humble drive-by comment here, and let me first point at that I am a developer, not a designer: I'm wondering if the left-side tabs are taking too much prime real-estate on the page? I'm guessing many of our users are still on 1024x768 screens, and the tabbed menu steal much of the attention and space on the page. Contrast this with e.g. http://l10n.gnome.org/ where the black bar on top provides a non-intrusive way of jumping between applications (sadly, this theme is not followed through in other gnome sites though..). I think the point I'm trying to make is that the overall theme that the applications plug into shouldn't steal the attention or real-estate away from the real use of the page. Does this make sense? cheers, asgeir > We don't have those little teaser boxes for applications though so maybe > if you can do the styling for those we can include it? > > I'm really worried about duplication of efforts here.
