nah, I was just copying material from the old website to the new
website.  It makes sense to use different images.


IMHO the 'flat-design.png' is much more suitable for Features. On
Introduction we're talking about freeing from the details of
layout, and it's somewhat contradictory to display an image beside
that which *is* about tiny details.


I slightly disagree there; showing that we have a mathematical
representation of the tiny details *does* mean that humans are
freed from dealing with it (since computers can do it).  But I
agree that might not be an obvious conclusion for non-programmers,
so I have no objection to using a different image there.


Good point. Maybe that can easily be made clear through the text. I'll
consider this when I'm at that text anyway.
I'd be happy to keep that image on introduction - it's so beautyful.


I think my current patch (https://codereview.appspot.com/48430043/)
would allow to keep the flat-design.png on Introduction.

Would you think one of the images on that page
http://www.musicprintinghistory.org/engraving/about-music-engraving.html
(I'd prefer fig. 3 or 4) would be suitable for Features?
And would the Use of Information make it suitable for inclusion in our
website?




Any opinions?

However, independently from this concrete image: What is the way to add 
new images to the website/docs? I suppose they somehow have to get into 
the lilypond-extra repo?

Yes, IIRC.  I can do that, as can GP.  I don't know who else has push 
access.  It always takes me ages to remember how to push to that repo, 
though.  I believe the work flow is that you must get the image into 
the -extra repo before pushing any changes that would use that image to 
staging/master.  If you do this the other way round, the build of the actual 
website will fail.

Images on Introduction and Features

2014-01-03 Thread ul


The images in the first text boxes on Introduction and Features  
are the same. Is there any specific reason for this?


If not I would suggest to replace one of them with something else.

IMHO the 'flat-design.png' is much more suitable for Features. On  
Introduction we're talking about freeing from the details of  
layout, and it's somewhat contradictory to display an image beside  
that which *is* about tiny details.


Opinions?
