Re: Previewing the new design
Hey guys (and Satyajit in particular), I'm sending you a very simple mockup (a chiefly old one, by the way) showing my vision of some basic design principles the web should follow. - Minimalistic header. - A dynamic header (could be used in interesting ways). - (Not in the mockup) Cool footer (e.g., http://elementaryos.org/developer) that allows us to a lot of useful links. https://github.com/aldomann/ubuntu-gnome-artwork/blob/master/web/ubuntu-gnome-webpage.svg As you can see I think we should do something super straightforward to our users. Also one of the main focuses of the web must be the blog as it's one of the main purposes of the web. Also, a must (in my opinion) is responsive design, that is a web completely usable in mobiles and tablets. Cheers.

Hi, While I appreciate your good intention to help, I guess I must ask you, yet again (as discussed before on private messages) to slow down and 'wait' until I ask everyone to start planning for Ubuntu GNOME 14.10 and the website is part of this planning :) Kindly be informed that without the leaders approval, nothing will happen, I'm afraid. So please, and this is for everyone ... slow down and wait until the planning phase starts :) Again, I appreciate that but let's wait until I announce the beginning of the planning. I guess I and the rest of the team deserve some rest after crazy 6 months and chasing for the LTS status that we have finally earned :) Please, slow down everyone :) Niels Vermaut Currently Working at Gamesnack Learning PHP and CakePHP https://twitter.com/nielsvermaut http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=214392054 https://plus.google.com/u/0/+NielsVermaut/ Thank you! -- Ubuntu-GNOME mailing list Ubuntu-GNOME@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-gnome -- Best Regards, amjjawad https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad *Remember: *All of us are smarter than any one of us.
