I do remember seeing an IRC web console on the wiki but I think it was just
for one development section. I'm sure we can do something like that again,
for the design mailing list.

no its very easy just log in and chat like a IM. I just don't know do we set
one up on a website, do we make a web site for our IRC. I was invited to one
once and I was in in a few minutes.

IRC is basically one big chartroom. If IRC is too much to ask, maybe I 
shall host a web based chat room?

back to the original post. I like the color of your design much 
better, the roll over is nice. its much more vibrant which is good. 
the current pail one is ugly. though I like how the top right corner 
is cut off in the pail one.
as to witch one I like the Ivan's proposal.

as to Alexander we could take this to its own email. but I do like 
that kind of menu, with the arrows and the popout button. there has 
not been a proposal to my knowledge. there is a UI proposal by Mirek 
which does talk about this for Citrus, here are three links to his 
blog that talk about this[1][2][3]. but again lets talk about this in 
another email.

Evon I think that this is a good idea, I don't know how IRC's work 
just that they are a mass instant message system like thing. if we 
could get this going that would be grate. lets talk about this in 
another email as well.

Cheers
Andrew

I too wish to get a UI redesign started. Are there any times where 
we could all maybe chat in an IRC channel? I feel as though we could 
get something done if we were to chat and get on the same page.

Thanks,

Hi,

Regarding the new download button:

1) I would simply mirror the bright gradient. Currently it the 
hover
effect looks a bit too bright. And the border looks a bit blurry.
Maybe it looks better without the shade.

2) The download icon looks a bit too pale. I would choose either 
the
current one or the last one, but the colors should look a bit more
vibrant.

Unrelated to this: Are there any plans to have a style selector, 
which
affects headlines, normal text, tables etc. ? To me, this seems to 
be a very time-saving feature, which could be implemented as part of 
the
UI-redesign.
Example in Word: http://weaselhut.net/images/styles.jpg
Additionally the user should be able to easily customize a style, e.g.
choose the alternating colors for tables, the way images are aligned 
and so on.

Greetings

Alex

Hi all,

Back in June [1] there was some great discussion about improving 
the download page. Given that no major steps have been taken 
toward an implementation, I'd like to take up this effort (with 
your help and feedback of course!)

In preparation for work on the download page, I have created a 
proposal for an updated home page button based on Nik's design 
and with help from Christoph [2]. As you'll notice, it's a heck 
of a lot more prominent than the current one, and far better 
looking in my
(humble) opinion :). The button on the actual download page would 
look similar to this.

I'd like your feedback on the following in particular:
1) The mouseover effect: if you don't like it, please suggest a
different one.
2) The download icon. There are already a few different proposals 
based on past discussions [3]; let me know if you prefer one of 
these instead.

Regards,
Ivan.
