Hi, :-) Christian has been really terrific with his patient technical and moral support, and it was due to his dedication that the site actually got rolled out before Christmas. He is a real team player, and we're really lucky to have him with us. Once again, thanks so much for this, Christian!

The work is of course not done, eye-candy is missing, and a revised theme is in the works. Merry Christmas to everyone, hope you& family are all safe and can enjoy the holidays. My congratulations to everyone, and huge thanks to those who were involved! A few notes regarding the download page: 1) Please rename Lithuanian from "Lietuviškai" to "Lietuvių kalba". This wording fits better in the particular context. 2) The two drop-downs are of different height for me (Win7, Firefox 3.6, Lithuanian base language, see http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/9219/dropdowns.png ). I presume this is because of non-western scripts used in certain elements (Telugu in particular). Specifying height and line-height of 25px and vertical-align: middle for select elements solves the problem. 3) The order of languages has been mentioned in the other thread, but I'd like to bring it up again. Sorting by language name would be fine, if it worked well, but it doesn't. If you just open the list and look at it, you will immediately notice that about half non-latin languages are at the top of the list, and the other half is at the buttom. This just doesn't look polished or sane, so I'd like to suggest sorting by the ISO code instead (and yes I know it was already suggested before). The only alternative I see is to list all language names in English, but I'm not sure we want it. 4) Again about the drop-down: I suggest removing the parentheses around the iso code. It's probably not very commonly used, but textareas usually support typing some text to focus an element. Naturally, I just want to type "lt" instead of "(lt)" to focus Lithuanian. 5) I don't quite like the fact that the font in the drop-downs is bolded. But maybe it's just me. That's all for now. Except this: my warm season greetings for everyone!

Re: [libreoffice-website] Re: [libreoffice-design] Fwd: LibO-3.3-rc1 download icons still mentions "beta"
Hi all, It turns out there's no way of having two bottom-right aligned images in a single image sprite in CSS for an HTML element that is vertically and horizontally flexible without having spaghetti code (lots of nested HTML tags). The alternative would be to have the TDF page corner motif appear on the top-left of each button (which is doable with 2 tags) ... or work on a different button design... up to you!

Thanks for the suggestion - that's a pretty cool feature. Although base64 encoding would make images a tad bigger in size, that might be more than made up for by having fewer HTTP requests. From what I read though, it doesn't seem to be supported by IE versions 7 and lower. Does the website team have a list of targeted browsers (the main question: do we need to support IE6)? If the data: URI doesn't work in IE7 then that is (unfortunately) a considerable drawback :( Regards, Ivan. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

IE6 obviously doesn't. I guess someone should just run a quick test to see whether or not it works in IE7 well. By the way, lack of support from old versions of IE is why I suggested to use this feature only for images that are purely eye candy (and small enough, of course).

You do the change in the page, choose "save", then "request publication", then on the then-existing workflow tab you can add an embargo date and time.

Oh, I thought it was clear that the general view is "too much text", not visually appealing enough, also it was made pretty clear that people don't like the side-navigation as it is now (too narrow to fit longer texts for example) and other minor things. And AFAIK the proposals were sent to the design list already (I probably should subscribe to the design list as well) > On a completely different note, I'm getting an invalid certificate > warning when I open libreoffice.org in Minefield (Firefox 4.0b9pre) - > I've uploaded a screenshot at [1] Ah, yes - I don't notice anymore since I added a permanent exception to ignore this warning.

No such resizing done in chromium for example http://frupic.frubar.net/17206 > Specifying height and line-height of 25px and vertical-align: > middle for select elements solves the problem. I don't really like this change, as it would maybe adjust the size for western-script ones, but for those who cause the resize it will be broken. It has been mentioned on the german list already http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss@de.libreoffice.org/msg01442.html The big problem is that other fonts have a different baseline, thus when you used fixed height, the text in the other checkboxes is pushed halfway out of the box. The different baselines of the fonts is also what makes a middle alignment as you mentioned impossible. > 3) The order of languages has been mentioned in the other thread, but I'd > like to bring it up again.
