Does anyone know what the contemporary way is to show the information in Plans.html? I remember ball.gif being ubiquitous in html in 1995 -- in stratigraphy it is regarded as a valuable 'index fossil', often found together with a variety of brightly-colored line.gifs and blink tags -- but I don't know what to do about it.
For the Plans.html, I'd use a list with each item having a background image from a sprite sheet ala http://www.alistapart.com/articles/sprites/, but that requires background image support in Dillo. In the mean time, maybe change the icons to pngs of check marks and Xs or something. Maybe green Xs for unfinished features and red Xs for pending? When I first saw the new website, I was surprised, but I have to say that I like it. On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 5:53 PM, Jorge Arellano Cid <jcid@dillo.org> wrote:

I wonder if you are the only dillo user with old display... BTW, I am using pretty new LCD display and still find it hard to read.
OK, we also had readability concerns but we agreed that it was enough. OTOH some people bashed the old design as prehistoric!
After all it's a matter of taste. Usability is a different thing. Maybe you need higher contrast to see clearly (I suffer with white backgrounds). Do you find this one better to read [1]?
What do other people think about the new web design? Aesthetically and from a readability point of view. Please comment.
The test page's visited text is easier for me to read than the home page's visited text.
Funny how it's the reverse effect for me! :-)
Please test:
:visited {color: #403090 !important}
and
:visited {color: #603060 !important}
on http://www.dillo.org/ and FAQ.
I prefer the first one because it fits the palette better.
First one is easier.
Committed.
