Re: Proposal for new layout of the GNUstep website now online

[Yen-Ju Chen]

 It looks beautiful.
 But the text is a little bit too small for me.
 My screen is 1280x1024,
 and the contrast between text and background is a little bit too low.
 I would like to suggest to use the font size
 as big as what www.gnustep.org is using right now,
 and increase the contrast between the black text and background.
 The contrast between clicked-link (brown/orange) and background
 is also too low for me.
 I also suggest that the box should not over the right border
 of the big gnustep box.
 And the simliar boxes could be placed nearby.
 For example, user and developer box could be more close,
 and resource and book box, too.
 User tend to find what they want depending on the similar item.

 Just my little comment
