Closed lokeshh closed 8 years ago

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

Fixes #19

Adds a new background logo taken from Facebook page.

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

Heres how it looks like IMG

divyanshu013 commented 8 years ago

Can you scale this using only height or width. It looks out of proportions.

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

It doesn't look good if I keep it in original proportion.

divyanshu013 commented 8 years ago

Can you attach a screenshot? Also try experimenting with the positioning. Although I was hoping that you guys could do something about issue #33 which would be better 😉

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

I have made some changes in the CSS so it looks in proportion and also looks good. Here's the screenshoot:

IMG

Does this look good now?

sagarkarira commented 8 years ago

I don't know, this is looking slightly odd. The height should be small. @divyanshu013 what do you think?

divyanshu013 commented 8 years ago

Yeah, looking a bit odd. How about you move the navbar to the top and move the logo to the left section where "What is GNU?" is mentioned?

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

@divyanshu013 How about I try to adapt the home page to a bootstrap template? This would also solve this issue and also make the website beautiful and responsive for mobile. Or should I make the logo change first? Please let me know.

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

One more question: I do not know PHP. Would knowledge of PHP be required in installing a bootstrap template to the home page? I suppose we just need to place the CSS and javascipt at appropriate places taken from a bootstrap template and the name the elements with ids and classes in the html. The knowledge of PHP won't be required. Right?

divyanshu013 commented 8 years ago

I think you guys might need to start from scratch on a bootstrap template instead of adapting the current site to bootstrap, that would be faster; just get a good bootstrap template (there are many freely available and can be tweaked as needed). The logo change is up to you. As for your latter question, unless you're using a PHP framework like Laravel, you won't need knowledge of PHP. Perhaps you guys should discuss this in a meeting with your seniors.

@lokeshh You should look into this. Lektor or Grav can help you build the entire website in a week. Also they have many different templates.

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

@sagarkarira Lektor seems great.

Please clarify one thing, what does it mean when we say we are looking to build the entire website? Does it also mean rebuilding "gluPaste", "Wiki", "gluBlog", etc. or just building the basic pages like homepage, contact page, etc. of the website?

sagarkarira commented 8 years ago

@lokeshh I think we should move to gitter or irc to discuss this, as this discussion has nothing to do this with this issue. Ping me where ever you feel comfortable to talk to.

divyanshu013 commented 8 years ago

gluPaste and gluBlog are working great, we're just talking about the site for #33

lokeshh commented 8 years ago

@divyanshu013 I just had a chat with @sagarkarira and he cleared my doubts. I've started the work on the website at https://github.com/lokeshh/upgrade_glugnith

divyanshu013 commented 8 years ago

Closing this PR till we've the new site ready.
