Hi,
I've implemented the proposed version
enterprise
Looks good overall but I have a few remarks:
* there is too much orange for me
* I don't like that much the current download
icon; I think the previous
one was better
It's not an icon, but a styled character (DOWNWARDS TWO HEADED ARROW).
You can see this as a performance improvement: one less image to
transfer, one less HTTP request, fewer bytes to transfer since the CSS
text is small. Sure, a plain white character is not as rich as a 24-bit
image, but it's not that bad, right?
* the 3D effect suggested by the
"Stable"/"Latest" flags doesn't make
much sense to me
I don't think that was intentional, it was supposed to use a styled
character (like the download one) to create a continuous ribbon, but
this isn't very "safe", since a seamless continuation between the sigma
lines and the following border depends a lot on the fonts available on
the system, on the current zoom level, on the system DPI, etc. I'd
rather replace it with a simple rounded border on the left side, which
is more bulletproof.
It was intentional to be "3D effect" because I couldn't get them to be a
continuous ribbon on all browsers. IMO the solution was interesting from a
tech pov (using the char for the ending part).
About the browser differences problems and using tech versions vs. images
one: I think we are an open source product so we may play with new
technologies and embrace them. Although I tried to make them look very
similar no matter what the browser is, IMO this is not critical. I want to
use CSS3 in my implementation and enable it on browsers that supports them
(this mean faster loads, cool tricks with few code, etc). So from my pov I
choose the CSS version always over the image alternatives.
For all the other "styling" suggestions I think is a matter of taste. Anyway
this implementation follows a mockup vote so I think these suggestions were
supposed to be "spotted" then and not now.
The code is on
so you can integrate your suggestions on the spot,
in a community manner.
Thanks,
Caty
