I'm not sure if I would say that not having a footer is an issue.
Most of what was in the footer has been moved and grouped more
logically in the header. For instance, the secondary apps have been
grouped with the main apps, and the time zone selection has been
grouped with the other user preferences such as theme selection and
language. The XHTML and CSS icons have been removed, but if you
clicked on the XHTML icon you see that the page does not validate,
having several errors.

So far, I found also that :
* there is no footer anymore
* an issue with favicon.png.
* when you choose a theme you have to use Cancel after to apply it.
It's like if the last view feature was not working.
* the log in webtools is no longer colored
* it's not easy to select the PDF version of an order in order view

Hi David,
from a marketing point of view I agree but there are a lot of
errors in
this schema to correct and that before tuesday? Not very realistic.
after 5 minutes of testing:
1. search results in party: partyId not clickable
(error: HOTWAX.buildSearch is not a function)
2. Although the sponsoring from hotwax is very much appreciated,
wasn't
there an agreement not to use the name in the code but only in other
areas as svn log and ?
If you search in all files you will find 59 occurences of hotwax...
3. In general the screens are now formatted much to wide because of
spaces and character sizes and other reasons, have a look at :

Yes, The default size is too large, you need to have a wide screen
to see it correctly. Especially with IE with the most current size
screen used in the world (1024*768).
And even using FF3, Chrome Opera or Safari with a wide screen
(1680*1050) you get an issue when looking, for instance, at the
Store (the store infos are wrapped). And I don't speak about having
a panel open at left, etc.
Also the orderview in only one column is not easy to read.
Also maybe we could have a title for each column of Business Area
(BTW this needs to be internationalized, maybe some others
also...). Something like "Main applications" "Secondary
applications", maybe 2 colors also ?
This said, it's really a great effort and I think that there is not
much to be done to be near perfection (at least nowadays ;o)
Yes thank you for that !
Jacques
Let me emphasize that Hotwax and Brainfood brought OFBiz to the next
level especially in the framework and graphical design areas.
Thank you!

Now that we have some nice themes in place I'm wondering if we
shouldn't change the default theme, especially for the back-end.
The
old blue-grey-flat theme (which we should probably move to a theme
component) is functional and I suppose lightweight too, but perhaps
doesn't give the best first impression.
Right now we have 2 alternative themes for the back-end (the
bluelight
theme and the smoothfeather theme which is meant to look like the
new
web site), and 1 alternative theme for ecommerce (the multiflex
theme).
One issue with all of these is they haven't been tested as
thoroughly
as the old stuff, but I'm not too worried about that because
there are
issues with the new default lots of people will see it soon and we
should be able to get things fixed pretty fast. In my own testing
both
of the back-end ones seem pretty solid (I haven't played with the
ecommerce one yet).
Anyway, please respond with your thoughts on this. I considered
opening a vote, but a general discussion is probably better first
(and
a vote may not be needed depending on how this discussion goes).
BTW, yes, this is for marketing purposes and should happen before
the
release branch next Tuesday.
