Re: Troubles with the design at 800x600 and 1024x768



(((moving this to gnome-web-list since it's about tech and not content)))

It seems that I almost the only stubborn with the horizontal secondary
nav bar. Maybe you are right and it's better to have it vertical,
then. This was one bit we left half-open in the planning process since
there was no clear consensus for horizontal or vertical.

"We will see the nav bar working and then we will decide", we said.

The only problem I see now to do this change is of human resources.
Who is going to do this work?

Greetings!
Not sure if this should have gone to the web-list instead, hope the
right people are subscribed to this one. :)
Tried out the beta-site at http://gnome.jardigrec.eu/ and ran into some
problems when using smaller resolutions.
On the "Take the tour" page it works good on 1680x1050 [1], but run into
problems with 1024x768 [2] and 800x600 [3]. This problem is also going
to arise when more projects get added to the product page.
I've chatted with both Steven Garrity and Máirín Duffy about this, and
Steven said they went for a vertical sub menu on mozilla.com [4] when
faced with the same issues as we have  and Máirín pointed me to a mockup
of her [5].

Does this sound like a good idea?
Hope this isn't too late to change, or that we run into other issues by
doing this.

btw, as a bonus point, screens are wider than tall.
