Well, I've never pretended to be a graphics designer, which is why I rebuilt this specific page to be completely data driven, with the source code readily accessible. I might try out a different layout idea closer to the previous design, but I think I will need to soon focus on other aspects of our build system, one of which is to enable the complete suite to be open sourced.
If anyone offers me an alternate design that looks good, I'll be more than happy to incorporate it. -- cg On Sunday, April 24, 2011, Boroondas Gupte <slli...@boroon.dasgupta.ch> wrote: > > > > > > > On 04/24/2011 03:52 AM, Chuck Baggett wrote: > Is the link > http://automated-builds-secondlife-com.s3.amazonaws.com/hg/repo/viewer-pre-release/rev/227447/index.html > is supposed to go to a page that shows good contrast? > > It's supposed to show at least better contrast than > http://automated-builds-secondlife-com.s3.amazonaws.com/hg/repo/cg_viewer-development/rev/227100/index.html > > I get the impression that is supposed to be the case > based on what I'm reading here, but when I look at the page and I > see pale grey letters on medium drab green background I find it > hard to believe that anyone could think that is a desirable amount > of contrast. > > Color perception is widely different from person to person and from > monitor to monitor.
