Hey guys, Okay, I committed on the svn a decent version of the navbar, which for now renders quite well with Firefox, Opera, and with minor glitches on IE 7.
CSS wise, the stylesheet is a bit more "dirty" (absolute positions for the home link) than it used to be, and I had to change <ul> and <li> in the template to <div> in order to make it more acceptable to non gecko-browsers (there seem to be some big issues when you change the display property, especially in IE). I plan to bring out a somewhat-very-alpha CSS for the tabs during the weekend (since it seems to me we have a clear idea that we want tabs, no? And anyway I like them). For what concerns the "tertiary" navigation bar, I'll favour the banner-bar approach. It seems to me is the one that blends best with all the rest, the other mockups tend to "jump out" a little (they seem to me much more visible than the others, and the first page element that catches my attention). Anyway, that's all Have a happy weekend y'all ;) Simone PS Congrats David :) On 11/25/06, Máirín Duffy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi folks, So I recovered from my turkey eating and threw together some four different possibilities (one with 3 variations :) so a total of 6 mocks) for another level of navigation on the secondary (iow 'non-frontpage') wgo pages: http://mihmo.livejournal.com/34329.html Quim Gil wrote: >> I still have doubts about the secondary navbar running horizontally >> under the header.

I played a bit with it in mockups #2, #5, and #6. I will play with swapping the tabs/second bar placement/usage on the train tomorrow. I do like the tabs' placement now though - they break the monotony of all the rectangles up top. We'll see how the other way looks. > On Thu, 2006-11-23 at 17:16 +0000, Joachim wrote: >> On 11/23/06, Máirín Duffy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>> What are the top priorities?

Ah ok. I've been working with thos on how art.gnome.org might use this design and when you folks feel you have enough from me for this release, I'll start spend more time working with him on ago (hopefully this will help work out any kinks other *.gnome.org sites might run into trying to use the design at some later point.) I'll make the other stuff a higher priority for now though! ~m _______________________________________________ gnome-web-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-web-list
