My feeling with the new style is that now the page looks green all over, while the "old" style (the one in git and thus currently on kainhofer.com/~lilypond) was basically a plain style with some green elements, indicating importance. Thanks for your feedback! I have been so focused on making the design accessible, that I have not been paying as much attention to the colors most people like or don't like. Since I have decided to use almost-black colors for the links in the navigation bars and table of contents, there isn't a need to worry about the background colors being too dark. The only background colors that need to be lighter are the footer, language selection, and warning box, since they use blue links. See what you think of this design (compared to the current one): http://www.uoregon.edu/~pmccarty/texi2html/lilypond-index.html http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/user/lilypond/index.html I won't post another patch until we reach more of a consensus (or compromise).

Trevor Greetings Till Original-Nachricht Datum: Wed, 19 Nov 2008 17:08:08 -0800 Von: Patrick McCarty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> An: lilypond-devel Betreff: [PATCH] Docs: Update default stylesheets Hello, This patch replaces the one posted in the `New patch for stylesheets' thread. The changes between this patch and the previous one are: (1) New colors for the navigation bars and the footer (2) Keep the background and border colors for the warning boxes the same as in the current style (brownish) To see the difference between the current CSS and the new changes, compare these two pages: http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/user/lilypond/index.html http://uoregon.edu/~pmccarty/texi2html/lilypond-alt-index.html Let me know if you would like me to change anything.
