Re: [ubuntu-art] Ubuntu Forums need design assistance
I used people advise for making forums icons from the pictograms, and made some changes. What do people think (www.mikesplanet.net/forums) Mike -- Mike Basinger mike.basin...@ubuntu.com -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

I have trying to fix that but have not been able to fine the rights settings yet. It is possible it is a bug in the forums software.

What do people think (www.mikesplanet.net/forums) Mike -- Mike Basinger mike.basin...@ubuntu.com I have to say this is one of the easiest to read re-designs I have seen now. Thanks for that. Unfortunately, and maybe it is a bad perception on my part, I see at least three separate ways links are treated there. The main page treats links by changing the color when I hover over them. The banner leaves the white link white, with no change as I hover. The links under the banner are split. Todays posts and FAQ underline the link, the next three actually use an orange highlight with reverse white text, I think.

The question mark was the best I could find. Mike On Nov 15, 2010, at 12:34 PM, Сергей wrote: I used people advise for making forums icons from the pictograms, and made some changes. What do people think (www.mikesplanet.net/forums) I think it's better to remove speech dots from the no new posts icon. An icon with a question mark also seems an odd icon for a category. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art -- Mike Basinger mike.basin...@ubuntu.com -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Thorsten your comments are spot on - thanks. The thing which caught my eye were the icons. They are drawn as buttons even though they are not. Borrowing the handy work of the Design Team pictograms, I put together a mock up with revised icons which are consistent with the branding standard. I drew the icons with borders when they may very well present better without. http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1066/5159498235_00fb7974c8_b.jpg Thoughts?
