I spent this morning doing a template/proposal for you to work on based on all those recent proposals posted in this mailing list. It's mainly a visual design proposal (nothing revolutionary in the code), I haven't yet validated it or looked at the WCAG 1.0 checklists. It was handcoded in Vim with the help of a cup of coffee.
http://safelyinrussia.com/tmp/miikka/ooowebsite/1.0/ Do I need to explain it? I guess it pretty much explains itself. In my opinion the appearance is still not "professional" enough. I think it needs some little tweaks and graphical delicacies here and there. We're talking about the world's largest open source project, aren't we?! I have tested it in Firefox and Internet Explorer 6. If we ever release a CSS-driven page, we must test it also on IE5. If anyone has access to that browser, please test our templates on that. It's a CSS layout using floats and some percentages. The size of the CSS file needs to be decreased, I didn't try to do very compact code this time. So: use it, modify it, abuse it. (Oops, I guess I forgot to add the search form. Well, it ain't hard: just needs to be added somewhere in the XHTML and then position: absolute) Miikka Leskinen The Web Designer (login name: miles_fin) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
