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?
Cheers,
Looks good. My question is, if the ToC goes longer than one page, will
we need to delete on the blank page so that the 1st page is on the
right hand side?
It is trivial, I was just curious.
Well we are basically back to the original design which no one wanted
because it looked like the guide cover. Did anyone look at the logo I
created? Does it have a use? My thoughts were the logo could go in
place of the large gulls or that general area.
