Others probably work, but I think the combination of blues in the one that's used a lot now is awkward. I do like the new design idea, but there are a few places I'd like to nitpick, if nobody minds. - The "Register | Login" button is awkward; it looks like it's centered with the descenders included, so it's a bit too high. Also, a pipe as a separator is strange. (This same style is used a few other places, too.) - "The Haskell Programming Language" is a bit long. Perhaps make "The"/"Programming Language" be a lot lighter, so that Haskell really stands out. - I doubt we'll end up using that font for the headers (unless somebody is ponying up for a license and wants to use Typekit or so), but the 't' as in "Welcome _t_o" is very strange. - Under "Events," I'd move "More" to be in line with the prev/next buttons. - Under "Latest Packages," I think different formatting could make this read more easily. At the very least, the package name and description should be a different color or weight. I'd move the description onto the same line (wrapping if necessary), but a lighter weight and a lighter gray (same color as the "Latest Event"?). Just some ideas to think about. -- Jeff Wheeler Undergraduate, Electrical Engineering University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
