Eye Candy

Other than a few minor issues, the code to generate the Digest from Subversion is done. But in my opinion the layout and look sucks. I can say that freely because I designed it. Obviously some artistic talent is needed to design a new layout. This is a request for assistance to that end.

The design parameters for the project are:

No hand editing. A script will generate the html from data sources, and the design needs to take into consideration the variation that occurs in the commit logs, and other sources of data.
The content is dynamic. The number of entries, the number of types and categories may and do change from week to week.
The digest is read from top to bottom or in sections by a good number of people. The purpose of the design is to allow comfortable and pleasant reading of a lengthy technical report.

Preferably the graphical elements would be easy on the server. Outside of these basic requirements, the field is wide open.

The most challenging parts are the table of contents and the layout of the commit log with all it's attendant data.

If you would like to help, send me an email. Your name and picture will be prominently displayed in gratitude. The code is available in the kde svn repository in trunk/www/areas/cvs-digest/enzyme. I can do the required coding, I need help with the design.

I will be posting this request on www.kde-artists.org.

One thing I would like to see in a new design is the comeback of the table showing what software got what types of fixes. That made it really easy to see what got optimizations, what got security fixes, etc., and easily jump to the commits in question.
 
Hey everyone! Cool site! The customer support seems good and the technology jobs are endless. Maybe I will have a better directmatch searching for human resources
since my keyword "customer care jobs" did not fit as intended.
Glad I found you! Keep on keepin on!
