Add an announcement/emergency banner include #82

Open postmodern opened 11 years ago

Add an _includes file which would add a banner to the top of every page (or possibly only the homepage), that would contain important/emergency announcements related to Ruby. Majority of the time this banner include would be empty.

We could use this banner to announce the new Jekyll powered website, or to announce critical security patches in the future.

I'm not too convinced. On my machine, already now the header takes up half of the screen, on the home page with code example almost all of it.

I was thinking a height of 40 pixels at the very top of the page. This would only be visible when an announcement was made.

I don't know if that would be a good fit for the current layout, but I kind of like this idea. We don't have an area for persistent announcement on the website (persistent as "on each page", as opposed to "on the news feed"). There is some space in the current header for this already, I think: check the useless space above the logo, and the empty room around the search area. Streamlining this area could make for the extra 40px you're considering.

I like this idea, a banner of 40px in height could easily fit somewhere on this:

I would be happy to take this on :)
