[sfWiki-devel] web formatting

[Iain S. <iai...@ya...>]

Hello,

I was looking at the web look and wondering if we might not change 
the format altogether.  I believe in good web design being 
minimalistic and simple.  Faster loading, and more information per 
page.  How about we color code the "Now Browsing" and/or "Edit 
<<topic>>" bars for each web.  So the web is indicated by the 
color code, and is also indicated in the browsing bar.

The page summary information doesn't need to be displayed for the 
page, you have the full page right there for reading.  The summary 
should be used for the auto-generated index, and "link to/from" lists 
to provide additional info about a page.

Finally, the page name itself should be displayed (with the web 
perhaps) in the "title" are of the page (center of top between the 
sourceforge logo and topic box).  On normal sfwiki's, the 
sourceforge logo will be where the project logo goes, and the 
sourceforge logo (and other sponsor logos) will go at the bottom of 
the page or next to the project logo.  

That frees about half an inch of screen real estate with no real 
information loss.  What do you think?
