[Nottingham] NLUG new website: Comments #04

[Martin]

Folks,

I've been tweaking again, ahead of demo-ing website options at this
Wednesday's talk... (More on that later ;-) )

Trying to incorporate the comments and ideas I've heard thus far, I've
revamped:

http://nlug-3.wp.ml1.co.uk/

It is now a fully flexible width and it looks fine on both my desktop
and smartphone thingie alike.

I've also discovered that the latest browsers now support setting
background gradients in the html/css. Ofcourse, the Mozilla, Webkit and
IE render engines all do different things with IE not doing gradients at
all. Can people check that the site renders sensibly please?

The gradient code used is:

background: #55aa55; /* fallback for older/unsupporting browsers */
background: -moz-linear-gradient(-45deg, #117711, white 110%);
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 110%, 0 110%, from(#55aa55),
to(white));


To add a bit of interest to the site instead of it looking very boringly
geekie text-only, can anyone suggest/offer a banner strip (or logo
strip) that can be added?

One thought is a montage of from abacus - to babbage - to silicon chip.

Any other ideas? Evolution of the penguin?... Dare we include any group
pics??! :-o


Cheers,
Martin
