Hi all, > http://oooauthors.org/art/artproject/
I just uploaded a new variation: http://oooauthors.org/art/artproject/new20_template-dc5.sxw/file_view This is what I changed: 1) I think Janet's right. The thin bars don't look good at all. I went back to wider bars. 2) I put the chapter title on the bar, in Peter's style. 3) As suggested by Janet (or was it Jean?) I moved the OOoAuthors logo to the copyright page. I agree it fits better there. I tried to make it similar to how my physics textbook does it. I changed the OOoCopyright page style to have an extra-wide footer, and I put the logo there. I also added the OOoAuthors URL (right-indented). 4) Janet pointed out the absence of a "Chapter N". So there's no indication that the document is just a chapter from a larger work. I noticed we have a seemingly unused OOoChapter style. So I decided to grab it for this purpose. In the title page I added a "Chapter N" using this paragraph style. I admit I'm not quite happy with the title page, but I don't know what to do with it. As for the copyright page, I think it's much improved. I think that putting the OOoAuthors logo there instead of the title cover was a good idea. I also want to say that I liked Janet's reminder that white space is a perfectly good design element. I actually like a sparse, non-cluttered design. Linda, please take a look at this design. Do you think I'm going in the right direction? What would you change?
