Re: [Pdweb] access to puredata.info to edit css styles etc

2012-02-11 Thread Marco Donnarumma
Hey Hans,

thanks, I tried to access but I don't have enough privileges.

I perfectly agree about discussing the changes; I could try some styles
with firebug, make screenshots and post it to the list (here or the main
one? not sure how many ppl are here).
I can start from the exhibition page, makes it smoother to start for me too.

my profile is (I should actually change the name of the page):
https://puredata.info/author/TheSAD

cheers,
M

 I think you just need to have an account on puredata.info, then we might
 need to make that account an admin.  Basically, if you can access this, you
 should have access:

 https://puredata.info/manage

 That said, before making changes I think you should at least describe what
 you intend to do.  The look of the website is likely to be a bike shed
 issue, so I don't think we need to make a whole big process of it.  But
 there should be some communication at least.

 If you are thinking of working on the CSS/plone template for the
 exhibition page, then that should be much more straightforward since its
 only a small part of the website.  That's probably a better place to start.

 Hi all,

 I'm trying this again.
 Following the discussion on the main list,
 I would like to have the needed privilege to edit the css styles and other
 stuff on puredata.info.

 How can we do that?

 thanks,
 cheers,

Re: [Pdweb] from scott - Exhibition page particulars and design ideas

2012-03-12 Thread Marco Donnarumma
Hi Scott,

nice one, thanks. Where are the thumbnails?

I also had a similar idea about the Exhibition page, grid-like layout,
pretty classical but nice.
However, I can't do that with css only as Plone uses tables..
(aarrgghhh)

So, I will have to look into this and figure out something.
You mentioned an addon to modify only a single page, do you have a link?

 hey there - i don't know why i decided to stay up and do this after i said
 i was too busy, but i've now made thumbnails for every listed project in
 the Exhibitions, ready to upload and deploy to the submission page.

 what i propose is to place the images in a grid style, with brief text
 below. clicking on either the image or the text will then send you to the
 defined Exhibition subpage for that entry. so we need a way to distribute a
 bunch of thumbnail images with text, in a grid or table like format, 3 or 4
 across. not sure how exactly that's done in Plone or whether one needs an
 addon for it to make it easier.

 if you think the design is cool then the thumbnail should be a requirement
 for anyone wanting to post something in the Exhibition section. just add it
 to the form for Exhibition submissions.

 I think the first paragraph is lovely and we shall keep it as it is, to
 avoid extra iterations.
 I don't wholeheartedly agree with the rewrite of the 2nd paragraph:

 I think as well it must be corrected.

 the points about pd being free and being available in source are missing
 now,

 I agree for free. For the sources, as the first line of the text says
 it's an open source software, I am not sure it's necessary.

 as well as a the point that pd-extended is more than vanilla+externals
 but it's also patched.

 I don't think it's specially relevant when you want to explain
 Pd-extended in one line.

 Also, afaik, vanilla is not written by Miller but rather maintained
 by him as it contains code from various authors.

 please edit, I think it's just a question of adding mainly somewhere.

 So, at the end, I personally prefer how this paragraphed looked before
 the last commit.
 All this work being quite subjective (as it is free text not program
 code) *please* give some reasons/rationale when you make change changes:
 why did you do what you did, what is the improvement? Otherwise we might
 just keep changing until the end of times :o)

 You are right:
 What I wanted to do here is trying to equilibrate the informations. I
 think it's much more relevant for a newcomer to know what is PD vs Pd
 extended, than to know Pd is available for IRIX. For me the text is more
 looking like a technical explanation around Pd, than an introduction to the
 Pd universe. For example, GEM was not mentionned once in the whole text,
 but cyclone was. In the end, it is more an introduction for developpers,
 than for users. What I think we must correct. It's a matter of balancing
 the informations, and to start from the beginning.

 I don't think we need the extra paragraph about graphical programming,
 but a picture of an actual patch would tell a lot (without words).

 I disagree. The whole point of Pd is patching, but the word is only used
 once in the text in the sentence:
 It is easy to extend Pd by nesting reusable patches (abstractions) or
 by  utilising object classes (externals).

 No words are written on what is a patch. And I think it's totally
 fundamental.

 I don't support mixing the 3rd and the 4th paragraph either - they are
 two different points (extendability, history).

 If you want. IMHO, Pd extendability can be introduced in a sentence where
 Pd basic usage needs a paragraph. Max explanations worth a look for
 comparisons with pd's:
 http://cycling74.com/whatismax/


 I think as well the sentence from the 4th paragraph:
 The core of Pd (aka Pd Vanilla) is written and   maintained by Miller
 Puckette and includes the work of many developers,   making the whole
 package very much a community effort.

 is redundant now.

 It should be nice to have other opinions on all that?
 We are close to publishing :)
 Best,
 n

 fact, that this is probably really not one of the strong points of Pd)

 just to inform you:
 today i have migrated the zope/plone instance of puredata.info to a
 virtual machine (KVM).

 previously all pd-related services hosted at iem were running on a
 aingle machine, which meant that it was virtually impossible to
 install any recent software on the server as the running plone/zope
 instance would require an ancient system.

 so this is the first step towards *any* upgrading of the system,
 including:
 - - upgrading the zope/plone instance
 - - upgrading the other services of puredata.info (mailinglist,...)

 if you notice any weirdnesses, please tell me.
