Aaand, it's me again. Spreadubuntu is just itching to move. And what's the next step? We need a graphics mockup. If any of you are good at web design, please give it a shot. For now, I'm looking for a front page in the Ubuntu colors, with a block of structured text (we'll use the one below from ubuntu.com for this mockup) and in-text links. If these look good, there's no harm either. What should be dominant _after_ the text are five big colorful links for See it, Try it, Get it, Shipit, SPREAD IT! Since Try it and Shipit might not be available, be sure to make it easy to remove these and/or modify them. One thing to keep in mind is that once the user leaves this index page, some sort of navigation toolbara should be available. Don't make this now, just make sure there is room for it to pop up in your design whenever not on the front page (suggestion: instead of a Spreadubuntu header, or two versions of the header: big font & small font + navigator). I'm in favor of elegant and smooth designs rather than sharp and vibrant ones, but do as you can best.
I'll be off for a week starting wednesday, but you can mail these to me. The deadline is 12 July, when I'll get them all hosted somewhere and we can discuss them from then. Please do give it a try! :) And don't forget - we want it to rock. Jenda -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
