(resend from my subscribed email address...)
Hi,
I've made the following changes:
* Allowed much bigger user pictures to upload, but set a server-side
preset (the unused Square Thumbnail) to resize user pictures to 44x44,
which is what 4em generated in Chrome)
* Turned on "Panelizer" and applied to article teasers -- with no
further configuration, this removed the authoring info on the teasers
* Set up a Visual Regression Testing tool (but did the baseline at this
point, after making the previous changes)
* Applied the two remaining CSS fixes from Erik: making the user image
"display: inline-block" and giving them 4px rounded corners
* Ran the visual regression testing, you can see the results here:

Regarding best practices, I think we already have a view of content that
takes a tag name from the path to filter, so you probably didn't need to
create that. http://ledgersmb.org/topic/installation ... it looks like
your view filters down to only articles, so it shows less -- no harm
having that here, especially if you want to curate further...
Cheers,
John

Hi John,
In preparation of the 1.5 release, I've been looking at ways to
publish installation instructions and notes. While doing so, I found
that there wasn't really a structure for showing installation
instructions on the ledgersmb.org <http://ledgersmb.org> site. Under
the Documentation menu item in the Main menu, there's now an
"Installation" link which points to http://ledgersmb.org/installation.
It's a new view I created by collecting all contents of type "Article"
with the tag "Installation".
Would you say that that's the right way to go? Or should I have
created a separate content type? I'm thinking that may be overkill.
One thing that I've noted and never brought up before: I think the
"user picture" on each article is *way* too big. It takes up a lot of
valuable screen estate. Can we do away with it in the teaser layout,
only showing the textual submission data (user and date)? Then maybe
shrink the image to 4ems-width max, with the submission data on the
right of it, instead of on the next row? (Saves some vertical more
screen estate.)
In my browser I added two rules to achieve the bit of the user picture
in the regular ("Content") view:
.user-picture img {
width: 4em;
}
.user-picture {
display: inline-block;
}
I was able to achieve the bit I mean about the teaser section with
this rule:
.node-teaser .meta.submitted img {
display: none;
border-radius: 3px; // the pictures look a lot more friendly
when I add that
}
I hope you all agree this step makes the site's content much more
accessible; an improvement.
Could you put these into effect?
