Re: Visual problems on the front page

2006-03-31 Thread Alexander Rødseth

Hello again,


Jutta Wrage wrote:
At first the corners are already CSS. I can play a bit with the 
border-radius. But more it not possible in my point of view, if we do 
not want static box sizes. Posting the link to layouts was not really 
helpful for me at all. Maybe, a new layout will not have rounded 
corners at all. But until ha new layout can be applied to all pages, 
there is other work to be done first.
If corners looks jagged with CSS that does not include images, I would 
suggest using images for the corners. This is entirely possible without 
using static box sizes.
It's a pity the link to the layouts wasn't helpful, as at contains a lot 
of good examples of nice web design.


When it comes to doing other work first, I would strongly suggest to put 
the look of the front page high on the list. Here's why:
- The front page is the face of the entire Debian project; it's crucial 
to make a good first impression
- Jagged corners, horrible combinations of colors, fonts that doesn't 
fit the logo's, -lines and a design that looks like it was pulled 
out of a monkey's ass in the 80's does not give a good first impression


I'm not meaning to bash your or your website here - it is technically 
brilliant! I have a lot of respect for all of you, and your work. I love 
the Debian project. But, for heavens sake, do something about the 
design! I'm telling you this very plain and straight-forward, with 
constructive intentions. No, actually, I'm pleading you. :-)


Now, I'm no web-guru. I've made a few pages, read a few books about the 
topic, had a subject about it at uni, been responsible for an intranet 
with 1,4k users but I truly suck compared to the clever people out 
there. If I felt I was the right guy to rescue the Debian front page, I 
would take on the task right away, but I'm not. I can point the finger, 
but not fix the problem.


Here's a page a just made about rounded corners, which includes a 
screenshot of how jagged the corners look at my computer:

http://www.pvv.org/~alexanro/rounded.html


I understand the culture of the meritocracy, where every suggestion 
are responded to with a "do it yourself",
That is not my thing normally. But your message was not really helpful 
at all. Maybe, the corners look more ugly on your computer than on my. 
Then a screenshot might have been helpful. Many people did not notice 
the switch to css instead of using table and fixed size images for the 
navbar. So it cannot be that worse. ;-)
I'm sorry if you don't find "Wake up! The website is ugly and I think it 
hurts the Debian project!" helpful. That's all I have to offer right now.



If it was up to me, I would introduce CSS-corners right away, even if 
the fallback was square corners. Everything is better than jagged 
edges. :-)
I am really not sure, if gecko based browsers will display CSS3 
corners differnent from the current CSS corners with 
-moz-border-radius in the CSS.

I'm not sure either, but I believe they do.


Doing it the same way as the majority of pages with rounded corners 
(images in the corners, without jagged corners), is also a possibility.
Not an option, if you want to display the navbar well with font-sizes 
from very small up to extremely large.
For larger text boxes images are an option, for small ones like the 
blue ones in the navbar, not.

Why isn't it an option?


BTW: look at the page with the free layout, choose larger font setting 
in your browser and see how that  page breaks totally while the debian 
pages still are readable with large fonts. I invested several hours to 
find another solution for the navbar with the same look and feel as 
the old one with images. But everything did either not work at all or 
was totally broken with large fonts.
Hey, at large font-sizes, the corners look a lot better. I must say I'm 
really impressed with how well the page scales with the font-sizes, 
browsers and screen sizes. That is incredibly well done and I'm totally 
inferior when it comes to skills like that. See, I'm not all full of 
critique. :-)



No matter what direction you may choose for your webpage, I wish you the 
best of luck, and appreciate your work.



Best regards,
  Alexander Rødseth

Debian developers location on world map

Dear

On page

We don't hold the copyright for the image. I'm not sure where to find

Isn't the top menu you're talking about just to "Select a server near

rounded corners could work nice with font large font settings.

I think its good idea to give the debian website a new look. (this edges 
aren't relay important, aren't they?) Take a look at the "new" python 
website [1] for example. The design just look... "modern" - and.. yes.. 
the debian page looks much better with large fonts :p


I'm not that familiar with this accessibility to estimate it right. All 
I know are theories.


Perhaps it would be a good idea  to ask a bit around - for people for 
who this is done and ask them, what they like about the page and what 
they don't like at the page it is now. And what they use to browse the 
page, some screenshots from it etc might help more than discuss what 
some here think might be good for them.

Luckily, other people have already done that work, they have managed to 
come up with nice solutions which have good cross-browser compatibility. I 
consider Mozilla-specific CSS a hack.

For example:
Rounded corners: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/customcorners/
Graphical navbars: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/slidingdoors/

Hm, yes - but IMHO the lack of a good navigation menu on the Debian website 
is a much more severe problem than whether some rounded corners are jagged 
or not, or whether the design looks "cool".

> Perhaps it would be a good idea to ask a bit around - for people for who

Part of my academic research is about web usability. It /might/ be possible 
for me to arrange a medium-scale usability evaluation (~60 student 
participants) for the Debian website. This will result in a list of 
problems which need to be fixed.

However, this kind of thing only makes sense once the obvious problems have 
been fixed. Jutta is currently mostly alone with this immense task, so 
progress is slow despite the large amount of time she invests in the 
website.

Cheers,

  Richard

  RESULTADOS PERIODO 4: 02-Marzo-2006 / 17-Marzo-2006 


Observamos 
el descenso de Calderón en la imagen general del panel de opinantes. 
Tanto madrazo como AMLO se benefician con este descenso.Mi 
opinión personal es que la campaña de Calderón es muy pobre. Hay una 
sobrexposición en la TV y totalmente egocéntrica. Todo es: "Yo 
tengo..", "Yo soy...", "Yo voy a..". Esto es muy cansado y no vende 
nada. Además, Calderón no está posicionado en la opinión pública. La 
única posición que está buscando es la de ser la opción del miedo a 
que AMLO sea Presidente. Veo muy poco futuro a este posicionamiento 
que ni siquiera ha logrado.Madrazo sigue la misma campaña y 
no ha logrado quitarse la opinion de ser altamente desconfiable como 
persona. Sin duda está muy bien posicionado como el candidato de las 
corporaciones y del status-quo. Garantiza que el PRI seguirá siendo 
la salvaguarda de todo lo corporativo: banqueros, industriales, 
sindicatos etc. Su problema es que estas son las primeras elecciones 
Presidenciales en que no habrá voto corporativo.AMLO está 
desde hace varios años fuertemente posicionado en el voto popular y 
en el descontento social por una política económica altamente 
concentradora y sin crecimiento. Con una habilidad política muy 
superior a sus adversarios sigue marcando la agenda de la campaña y 
todo el mundo político está esperando su siguiente movida. Además es 
un gran superviviente de situaciones sumamente difíciles que le dá 
un halo de invencibilidad: Salió airoso del ataque de los videos, se 
enfrentó abiertamente a la autoridad del Presidente de la República 
y del Presidente dela Suprema Corte de Justicia y los derrotó, 
desairó a Carlos Slim, ataca de frente a Salinas, desairó a los 
banqueros en su reunión de Acapulco etc. Sus adversarios lo quieren 
colocar como un candidato autoritario, peligroso,desconfiable etc. 
Yo no sé si estos adjetivos sean ciertos, lo que si me queda claro 
es que es un extraordinario estratega político y tiene el carisma, 
el lenguaje y la oferta política clara. Muy reconfortantes 
las opiniones acerca de la administracion de justicia en el país. A 
pesar de que se acepta que el marco legal no es necesariamente 
justo, dos terceras partes de los opinantes confían en los 
operadores del sistema de justicia . Este es un grán resultado. Esta 
pregunta la hice a principios de los años noventas y la respuesta 
fue radicalmente diferente: dos terceras partes opinaron que era 
preferible huír o pagar mordida. Ojalá y tenga comentarios
