"Semi-Professionally looking" website #354

Open riedelcastro opened 6 years ago

riedelcastro commented 6 years ago

For v0.2 we should have a "semi-professional" website, maybe along the lines of this or this. I believe this helps with uptake, but it's also useful to convince funders we did something "serious". Would be great to have an official logo for this. I know that @mbosnjak is great at this, so I tentatively assign this to him, but I am aware this might get thrown back at me :)

When (latest) do you want this?

riedelcastro commented 6 years ago

Were are planning to do a bigger release (with public announcement) on Feb 22 (coinciding with a demo paper submission), so by then. Would be great to go through one iteration before, maybe?

As I'm good at taking free templates and slicing-and-dicing them up, can you take a look at these and tell me which ones you like: https://www.styleshout.com/demo/?theme=elevate https://www.styleshout.com/demo/?theme=dazzle https://html5up.net/txt https://html5up.net/alpha https://html5up.net/massively https://html5up.net/stellar

Bear in mind that I can (and will) change almost everything (colors, backgrounds, images, good portion of the layout, stupid fading effects) but I need the skeletal CSS in place.

As soon as we agree on a template, I'll produce something quick.

I like dazzle and elevate, don't feel strongly about it though. @dirkweissenborn, any preferences?

mbosnjak commented 6 years ago

I like elevate with dazzle's top menu (instead of elevate's hamburger menu), but I say we can combine them as we wish.

Sounds good! Feel free to experiment as you see fit.
