Here is a prototype for the v1.0 Gallery:
http://baron.flightgear.org/~curt/tmp/v1.0/
I've taken the best of the pictures that were submitted on the mailing list
and organized and arranged them.
Here are a few things that jump out at me:
1. The big commercial jets with glass cockpits seem very under represented.
2. It would be nice to have a couple more interior shots showing some of our
full 3d, fully operational cockpits.
3. A few of the pictures are really great, but some of them could be
improved upon. There's no time limit for sending me better images that
could either be added to the page, or replace an existing image. (Our
primary goal is to show our best side here, if someone's image is removed or
replaced, please don't be upset!)
4. Do we have a nice outside view of a glider or two?
5. Can someone send an image of the osprey with it's rotors all folded up?
6. The aspect ratios on these images are all over the map which makes the
page look really sloppy. I would like to standardize on a 1.333 aspect
ratio (1024x768 or 1600x1200, but not 1280x1024). Would it be possible to
find a volunteer willing to crop the original images so they all have a
matching aspect ratio and thus line up on the page? I can send you the raw
images or provide a place for easy download (like right here:
http://baron.flightgear.org/~curt/tmp/v1.0/Source/)
7. The thumbnails and larger versions of the images are all autogenerated
via a script so we have some control over the styling of the page, but there
are limits. Mostly I'd like to focus on expanding our set of quality
pictures and we can worry about page layout details a little later.
Thanks,
Curt.
