Hey,
I am extremely grateful to Christopher Lenz for designing the first version of
our official Apache site. However, I think it might be the time for a new
design. There have been a number of other document databases pop up in the last
year, and we would do well to keep our image modern and fresh.
Some of my initial thoughts:
* The header graphic could make the project name much bigger.
* The header graphic could include the phrase "Time to relax" as a slogan.
* I'm not happy with the content hugging the left side and an empty right
gutter. I would prefer a central column with a width between 40 and 50 em
and a margin set to auto. Something generally like http://miscoranda.com/
would be nice, but a bit thinner.
* The font would probably look better in Georgia and being about 1em.
* Something a bit more like http://books.couchdb.org/relax/ would be ideal.
Of course, I could just come up with my own design and see what people thought,
but I'm a little too busy, and thought it might be fun throwing this wide open
to suggestions from the community. We might have some skilled designers!
Best,
I 've made a quick layout trying to match your list. Screenshots are
taken with a resolution of 1024x768.
