Hey Josh, thanks for the offer of help!<div><br></div><div>I definitely like your simple and kid-friendly theme for addons. I wonder off the top of my head though, if it makes sense to make addons.sl.o look *more* like the other sl.o sites? Things are kind of confusing right now with the different styles of wiki, trac, addons, schools, gitorious, api, buildbot, etc. planet is the lone exception, it seems to follow <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org">wiki.sugarlabs.org</a> nicely :)</div>
<div><br></div><div>It would be great if the Design Team could comment on this decision.</div><div><br></div><div>Here are a couple other web infrastructure ideas:</div><div><br></div><div>+ Improve theming consistency among various SL.o sites.</div>
<div>+ Single sign on cookie among all SL.o sites - perhaps OpenID based.</div><div>+ Standard nav header atop all SL.o sites rather than the various nav headers in different places, with different links.</div><div>+ Better splash page for Gitorious, looking more like GitWeb - a page with a small search box at the top and the rest being a list of projects, sorted by recent activity, showing owner and last commit details</div>
<div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Wade</div><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 19, 2009 at 11:10 AM, ,Josh williams <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:joshcwilliams@gmail.com">joshcwilliams@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I've created a mock up at <a href="http://sugarlabs.org/go/AddonsPortal/Design" target="_blank">http://sugarlabs.org/go/AddonsPortal/Design</a><br>
but I've haven't been able to contact anyone on the design team as of<br>
yet. I would also like to volunteer some of my time for other projects.<br>
I'm primarily a front-end designer with XHTML/CSS JavaScript skills, but<br>
I also know some PHP/MySQL and have a background in Linux. I also enjoy<br>
creating icons, so if there are any activities developers that need<br>
icons please contact me. My portfolio is over at <a href="http://tucsonlabs.com" target="_blank">http://tucsonlabs.com</a> .<br>
<br>
If you're a member of the design team or have some use for my skills,<br>
please let me know.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Josh<br>
