- Update messages style. Add classes green, red, blue, and violet to
let you change the messages image background among these colors.
Also fix spacing between the image and text, they are a bit closer
now. The wiki code of messages is as follow:
||<id="mimg" :^> attachment: here ||||<id="mtxt" (^> text here ||
or with classes:
||<id="mimg" class="red" ^:> attachment here ||||<id="mtxt"
class="red" (^> text here ||
1.7-17
======
- Adjust credits position.
1.7-16
======
- Before this update some links in the top edition bar were
disabled. Due to the style used to locate locationline element.
Now, the locationline elmenet is fixed and the edition links are
fully active again.
1.7-15
======
- Add a comment about wiki instance name, in the install.sh script
file.
- Change the default wiki instance name into wN. Where N is a number.
The default value is `w0' now.
- Update the position of pagelocation links. Now it's moved a little
into the left.
- Update page padding. The page padding is reduced 10px on left,
right and bottom.
- Update html background. Now it is dark.
- Update pre tag code box color background.
- Update lists presentation. The margin between them is a little
reduced.
I wouldn't vote for it, hard contrast changes makes it harder to read
and is causing a higher strain to the eye.
I like the discrete border that breaks the normal text on white
background with what is the border in the current design.

Ditto, the only thing I would is maybe to try to darken the squares on
the current design a bit, but to much. To much contrast hampers good
reading. The point of the background is only to guide the eyes to stay
where the text is (a.k.a. the indicate the borders where the text
end).
Hoping the problem magically goes away by ignoring it is the
"microsoft approach to programming" and should never be allowed.

I agree with this. And if I may make a request, I'd like to see a bit
narrower borders. It should still serve the purpose of indicating the
borders where the text ends. With the way it is now, the background
(both sides combined) is taking up close to 20% of the total width. I
remember one of the main reasons against having the side navigation
bar was that it would waste a lot of screen estate especially when the
page is long. Right now, we are using space that would have been
enough to accommodate the navigation bar.

yep ... And if we reduce the size of the squares a bit ? See:
I would like to hear the community needs about the actual wiki design.
What do you think the actual design needs ? How do you think we can
improve it ?
I would like to see some impressions to improve what we have now.
Thanks for comments guys.
Cheers,
al.

Tomorrow you'll have a screenshot. Actually we have 10% on each side,
how much you want it to see it reduced ?

Well, actually we have two navigation side bars, one on top and one on
bottom. The actual design let us to do that, and don't look so bad ...
If we make a left hand navibar (i.e. see fedora's one) don't know if
the top and bottom navibars fit on it.
What do you think ?
Cheers,
al.

How about 5% on each side?

It is all fine as such. While we were still discussing the new design,
I proposed to have a left or right side navigation. But this is not an
issue any more.

I like that, many websites is using the same amount of screen that a
u-boat has through the periscope.
And a question:
Whats the reason for changing the visual layout on the wiki?
From my view its quite appealing and visually correct, The only thing I
would like to change, the space below a "header" and normal text should
be shorter than the space below the text, it looks like it is the same now.
Back to the original question:

I can agree that todays light squares is hard to see when I have to much
background light, so a tad darker, maybee...

I have used the {{{ for code examples and liked the pastel peach color
instead of the extremely dark background in the msgs examples. I would
suggest to use soft/pastel colors instead of so bright colors in the
1.7-21 example.
