Scalate Web site

I've got the beginings of a scalate Web site set up at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/sandbox/website20. Right now it is mostly just a home page. Is this a generally good direction? Ideas? -- Principle Technical Writer Phone (781) 280-4174 Skype finnmccumial E-Mail [hidden email] Blog http://documentingit.blogspot.com/ |

Eric,
Yeah, I like how the major simplification of the first page makes it looks a lot more appealing. Nice work on this initial proposal! Some things I would change: - only mention the latest 4.3.0 release on the home page in the download box -- I'd also try and see if we can come up with a little javascript that offers the correct download link for the current platform, so people can get their hands on the software as easily as possible (similar to what e.g. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html does) - when the new logo is done, we might have to tinker a bit with the color scheme or add some drop shadow/rounded corners/some other eye candy/... - I would move the news section down, to the same level of the twitter feed but on the left -- afterwards we could add an events or JIRA feed in the middle as well - with the news section moved down, we can probably add some extra spacing in the summary description, making things a bit more readable -- I suspect we might want to rewrite that description a bit when we start gearing up for our next releases (considering what we discussed in the 'future' thread) - how about giving the drop-down menu's a slightly different color/hue to make them stand out a bit more from the main navigation menu? Also, the menu items in those drop-downs would look better if there was a bit more space between them (I think) Also, I really like the twiiter feed on the bottom of the page, but we might want to keep an eye on this thread on the incubator list (http://old.nabble.com/Twitter-widget-on-Apache-project-website.-ts30053485.html) because there appear to be a few 'issues' with using the default widgets on apache.org websites. We can always make up our own equivalent (most JavaScript toolkits have some kind of support for RSS anyway) or look at Wookie for this.

The site now has a bunch of content and style. I've also got the front page
Twitter feed working. Is the look and feel OK? What about the navigation and organization? When the new logo is ready it can be easily added. Lukasz your intern can also play with it to spruce it up.

Scott Christopher,
Yeah, I have been able to receive the attachment just fine and Lars will include the patch into some other work he's currently doing on the website project.

I did some tinkering on the new website. For the logo I put in this is just for getting an idea so far.
As soon as our new logo is finished the top bar should be reworked from scratch.

I smoothed out the logo placement by removing the space between the image
and the name. I also added some space for the menu as Gert suggested On Thu, Oct 28, 2010 at 7:12 AM, Lars Heinemann <[hidden email]> wrote: > I did some tinkering on the new website.

I've got a fairly complete version of the ServiceMix site working in the
sandbox at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/sandbox/website20. Not all of the pages from the wiki are there, but enough to get a general sense of things. What do you all think of the visual design, navigation, etc? I added some color to the drop down menus and a shadow to the boxes. Should I continue down this path?

Hi Eric,
the dropshadows are looking quite nice. Loving the boxes on the right side a lot. For the header I would recommend using the latest approach of splatch design proposal ( see http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/1718/servicemix46.jpg ) Can we try to get a unified version of both approaches?

I can get the header updated to match the example. I'd just need the
images used to create the logo. The clip art from the boxes are nice as well. I'd like to add that as well. Or Lukasz's intern could do the update. Either way works.

I've got some of Lukaz's stuff incorporated into the scalate SMX web
site in the sandbox at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/sandbox/website20. I still need to pretty up the search box. I wasn't keen on the left side image, so I left it off.

Re: Scalate Web site

Hi All,
The project web site redesign looks like it hasn't gotten any attention recently and I have been doing some web development anyway, so I thought I would take a shot at something similar to what the community has already agreed on. The link below is a screen shot of a scalate generated landing page (I used Eric's sandbox work as a starting point). http://www.flickr.com/photos/ccustine/5390898666/sizes/l/ The landing page is a bit rich in content and graphics but I liked the idea of a featured content section (with the rotating content common in commercial sites) and the getting started boxes carried over from the previous concepts. The actual content pages (docs, tutorials, etc) will be slimmed down a bit more than this one and will have a left side navigation menu specific to the section you are in (Documentation, Tutorials, Project Info, etc) but will carry the same theme. I'll work on those and post some screenshots if everyone likes this direction. WDYT?

In reply to this post by Chris Custine
Awesome Chris.
It looks very fine and professional. As discussed before, we should work on website and doc before releasing ServiceMix 4.3.0 and 3.3.3. I will work on doc/scalate tomorrow (it's in my TODO :)).

Absolutely. I will see how much work it will take to give a similar
style to the docs. I have wanted to do that for the last week but I had not gotten to it yet.
