I quite like this - this tackles a few pretty common annoyances in a non controversial way. I think this, along with some of the other themes that tom has talked about could be a great starting point.
I have tried this locally and on DEV@cloud - it seems to work - not sure if it is the version, but there are some odd variations of font sizes on a given page (easy fixed though, maybe is my eyes!). I really like it! Things are far more clickable, and the console 100x more first class and visible. If anything, I would say that taking it a tiny bit further - using some slight background shades like the other examples work, would mean that the tables/borders could be relaxed. This makes it even clearer what is clickable and more "console like", for example: https://camo.githubusercontent.com/d7600a483eb5ee599cd9d842bcbad3eea3b66b91/687474703a2f2f692e696d6775722e636f6d2f4257683555304c2e706e67 - the clickable and information bits are less crowded by lines grouping them as the background does the job splitting things up.

Perhaps we could setup an OSS project to show it off. It doesnt' interact perfectly with DEV@cloud jenkins as it has its own css/js going on for the toolbar, so perhaps it isn't the best way to showcase it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
