lighten up round two... #79

Closed larsenwork closed 9 years ago

larsenwork commented 9 years ago

sorry guys, just had an idea I had to try real quick. I visited the website on a big display earlier and got annoyed by the dominant horizontal lines so got rid of a couple of them.

ping @pathumego and @davelab6

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

I know what you mean... I think the 4 top nav links could be white or with a lighter background to set them out from the masthead overall.

pathumego commented 9 years ago

Agree with @davelab6 White links would be nice.

JoesCat commented 9 years ago

A popular color set in the days of 16 color graphics was yellow text on blue.

Light text on dark backgrounds are a nice change of pace, but I noted that you may want to avoid the light/white colors for text, as they come out very washed-out for anyone printing web pages to a printer.

larsenwork commented 9 years ago

@davelab6 done @JoesCat that's what media print is for - I made it so all the text is black + backgrounds white

Looks good otherwise, but IMO, those hyperlinks now look like the 'spell checker' incorrect spelling underline.

larsenwork commented 9 years ago

@jtanx I'm also unsure about that - I like it (and did it) because it's a visual continuation of the orange line in the logo...

nb: the anti alias hack doesn't work in paparazzi so the text looks bolder in screenshots

@jtanx looks even less like spell check if we make it a little bit thicker screen shot 2015-05-29 at 09 40 37

@jtanx :+1:

larsenwork commented 9 years ago

@pathumego see #82

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

I think the links color change fading on mouse over needs work, its a bit jarring at the moment

larsenwork commented 9 years ago

ye

pathumego commented 9 years ago

What link, the top links?

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

The fade in all cases I saw was kind of jumping at the start
