Site navbar: descenders (like 'p' and 'g') should not cross over the
navbar border. Suggest not using default blue for those links,
I think it's distracting. I think if you styled this with:
height: 12pt;
line-height: 11pt;
To div.osol__top__div, it would probably fix it. I tried it, and
it looked good in firefox, at least. The problem here is that in
the <body> styling in elements.css, line-height is set to 1.5em for
the whole page:
body {
padding: 1em;
margin: 0;
background-color: white;
font-size: 75.01%; /* 12px [1] */
-----> line-height: 1.5em; /* 18px [2] */
color: black;
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;
}
And so when you want to be precise you have to at times override
this.
Top navbar: top and bottom margins aren't the same for the "Discussions"
"Communities", etc-- there's not enough whitespace at the top. A few
extra pixels will make a big difference.
Middle column: Suggest that it get a little wider margin, providing a
little more separation.
Feature Spot: Recommend continuing work to make this a little more
graphically appealling.
Sun-Sponsored links: Virtualbox graphic is impressively ugly, I realize
that's not your call, but, still.
Overall: I think you did a great job spearheading this, and I really
like the asymmetric two-column layout-- it really makes the page a *lot*
smarter and more professional. Kudos.
