Re: [Gimp-web] GIMP Site Redesign

@Alex Yeah I know :P

@Mike Well I already have the basic "shell" of it done. I'm pretty fast at coding lol. All that I really need at this point is the white icons on the buttons, the laptop pictures, and the brick background. To be honest, I don't know much about the procedure my self... :/

Yeah, I can definitely get you a layered file to get assets from, but let's make sure everyone is on-board before you invest your code-time into anything.  Who should we talk to about this?  Sorry, again, I'm new..  What's the procedure for proposed changes to things like this?

Also, if you used GIMP to make the design, could you please send me an XCF file so that I don't have to recreate everything :P

Thanks for the kind comments, all.  I made it (Mike Finch @1sixty.com).
Right now, it's just a flat PNG mockup.  By trade, I'm a UX/UI designer- not a developer. If you feel comfortable building something like this, it'd be great to work closer with you on requirements/assets/etc.

I'm new in the group, so just let me know what I can do to help!
