Re: Web designer



Hi Luca, thank you for being here.  :)

If you want to help in the www.gnome.org revamp it is good that you read
a couple of documents before you paint a pixel:

http://live.gnome.org/GnomeWeb/LooknFeel

Máirín is in charge of the look&feel and she is expected to come up with
a new iteration one of these days.

If you want to help from this point, great. It is a bit late for brand
new proposals though, since there has been a lot of discussion already.

But there is still a lot to do for graphic designers! We haven't still
discussed CONTENT. Currently wgo (and most GNOME subsites) are based on
text, more text and also text. We want wgo to have a clear and brief
message, attractive to our target users. This involves eyecandy,
graphics, pictures in the wgo pages. At least the main pages of each
section should be really nice-looking and I'm sure that we will need
many graphics to explain concepts clearer.

Let's see if we finally go down to real contents, so we can start making
a list of graphic materials needed. This could be a place for you to
help, if you like the idea.
