Hi everyone,
As a part of the recent page updates post, I've taken a look at several of
the CD-ROM / ISO related pages.
I've created a mock-up of what I'd like the new CD-ROM download page to look
like. There are still a few problems with the page I made, and any advice
on how to proceed would be helpful.
Let me start by saying I have no idea who designed or maintains the CD-ROM
distributors page, and I do not have the rights or permissions to change
it. This is just my suggestion - I can't make it happen without someone
telling me how and/or giving me access rights to do so.
I suppose the site to be maintained by the distribution project (as
it is located there: http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom ). So
perhaps it would be more successful to post your message on their
dev-list.
Here's my proposed site:
http://ooocdrom.blogspot.com/
The changes are mostly cosmetic, but I think it cleans up the resulting look
and feel quite a bit. There's not as much yelling at the user. No reds, no
huge buttons that have nothing to do with buying a CD. Just simple
instructions and a few links.
Looks much more professional than the present one.

Advice is welcome. What do you think?
I'd keep the "official" OOo heading including the entries in the
blue bar. It can be discussed to modify them (probably at the
website project), but that's nothing specific to the CD-ROM page.
If technically possible I'd show the worldwide shipping companies on
the first glance and all the others after selecting a region in the
drop-down menu. This menu should be placed near the list of
distributors and formatted in a way everybody recognizes it an
alternative to the listed distributors.
Go ahead - cleaning up our web pages is absolutely necessary !
Best regards
Bernhard
