( Please CC me on this thread on the relevant bits as i am not
subscribed to -www. )
Some parts seem to be deprived of design renewal. On these parts,
link colors and fonts do not match as that on the front page and
almost any of the 2d level pages. A running theme was that ...
- Titles do not appear in san-serif font, causing inconsistency
from the first few pages.
- No background color has been specified, causing browser to
substitute user specified color.
- Links are (sometime) hard to distinguish from the text, causing
me to strictly use my own preferences.
The forsaken ones that i came in contact and actually care about are
...
* http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/
- Un/visited links are in blue/purple.
* http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi
- Un/visited links are in black/black along w/ black of normal
text. Oh, email address is green near. Green is also the
color of some non-link text.
* http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ (& its hierarchy)
- Link color of www@freebsd is black.
- No background color is specified, so black text (above the
module table) appears unreadable on dark background color
specified by me.
- A file's history appears on a page which has both text & the
links black w/o any background color.
* Description of any of the ports (i selected 2 at random; one was
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/x11-fm/dfm/package-descr)
- Tiny fixed width text of description.
- A light background color is not specified, so red title, black
text & email link appear unreadable.
On a related note, should i submit my contribution of style sheets as
PR or email to this list? I would appreciate if there is a document
describing the purpose of the classes used (as i am not feeling to
dig in each file listed in fixed.css right now).
