Last night I did some changes to our homepage... ;-)
thanks for your update. I've some questions:
- Renewed the google-site-verification. Now we have a confirmed
link to
https://www.openoffice.org on Google+
What is the reason to exchange the old one? Got it invalid?
No, the old one was for http, now the link is for https. Google needed a
new verification code for that.
Originally this was done by Rob Weir (?), so I just changed the string
in index.html.
OK, but what is now with HTTP? Isn't it then needed to have 2 codes?
Or does the code for HTTPS include HTTP automatically?
Yes. It is just to verify the quality of the link (See the checkmark
behind the link on Google+)
sorry, I'm not familar with G+. Wich checkmark do you mean?
- Added favicon.png (Which now seems unnecessary, but doesn't hurt
either)
There is already one. Please see ".../branding/images/favicon.ico".
So, please don't put other files into the root directory except dirs
and HTML files. It's already enough filled with things that do not
belong there. ;-)
Nice to have a favicon in a subfolder, when it is not referenced in
html. It will never be used! ;-)
Browsers look by default in the root for favicon.ico. There was already
one since 2014. It was 100k, the new one is 99k.
But we can surely move the favicon.ico and change the link accordingly.
Yes, please.
OK, I will move it to /branding/images. What to do with the old unused
icon? Can I rename it?
"favicon_16x16.ico" looks like a good name for the backup.
And I will delete favicon.png. Hopefully everything will work without it...
No risk, no fun ... ;-)
- Added a link to favicon.ico and favicon.png to get a thumbnail
for
the link to our homepage on YouTube
- Increased the size of the orb in favicon.ico, so it looks much
clearer now.
From 1kB to 100kB is IMHO not really an improvement. Compared with
some Youtube visitors, this will increase the loading time of every
webpage request.
As I said before, that 1k favicon.ico wasn't used. Who ever put it
there...
But I think we can delete favicon.png. That was just a fallback.
Eventually Google only needed some time to crawl the webpage.
Where can I see the icon in the Youtube channel [1]? When checking the
graphic links nothing refers back to get them from our webpage.
There are four links at the right side of the channel graphic. Homepage
is the first and had a generic icon until recently.
The icons are automatically pulled, when YouTube (Google) checks the
link. That did work for Facebook, Twitter and Google+, but not for our
homepage.
So, that means Youtube goes to "www.openoffice.org", looks in
"index.html" for an favicon entry and if existing take it from the
given path?
Right. Google pulls only the proper resolution.
If you can't see the AOO orb in front of the link now, you may have to
empty your browser cache and reload the page.
Sure, I can see it. But I don't see an increase of quality. It's the
same size as on our homepage. So, why is there a new and bigger
favicon needed?
Until recently, you couldn't even see the icon...
It contains graphics for different resolutions like before. Therefore it
is bigger, but more versatile than a small 16x16 icon.
We live in the times of HiDPI- and Retina-Displays!
And the one I adapted has been there since 2014 (file date). The size of
the new file is even slightly smaller now.
Let me clarify, the dimensions are the same, only it uses the available
space better and looks "bigger".
I think you can see the difference here:
old: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/48386075/favicon_old.png
new: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/48386075/favicon.png
It's indeed looking bigger - or better said it's filling the complete
available space.
Again, thanks for the updates.

BTW, in the near future Google (Chrome) plans to mark all websites
without https as "unsafe".
We already have a certificate for our homepage, do we want to make
https
as default?
(Some pages have problems
(https://www.openoffice.org/stats/downloads.html) so that must be
investigated in advance)
Hm, I don't see a problem here.
I can see the text, but not the graphics, because they are loaded from
an "unsafe place" (Firefox, Chrome and IE block this by default)
This is only a problem, if we set https as default. Now the page is
loaded with http. You need to use the above link to see it.
Thanks for taking care.

That is just eye candy for our visitors... ;-)

GIMP can not open it when downloaded.
The XCF Marcus uploaded to SVN is usable.
Download it from here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/ooo-site/trunk/content/images/AOO_logos/
(use right-click on the file name to be sure the browser doesn't
mess
with it)
should I update the file property via SVN? If so whats the SVN
command
to use?
Thanks
