Site Redesign

Todd A and I have done a site redesign for Cobra. For the static web pages, it's about 90% done and you can see the results now:

http://cobra-language.com/

http://cobra-language.com/how-to/UseLists/

http://cobra-language.com/docs/quality/

In addition to look and feel, all samples and how-to's are current with the latest Cobra source.

There are still things to do like syntax highlighting in the documentation (already done for Samples and How To) and improving the Downloads page. Also, we plan to update the discussion forums and trac/wiki so that the page headers, page footers and styles are consistent throughout the site.

If you see any problems, try refreshing your browser which could be caching an old stylesheet, for example. If you still see a problem, please report it here and I'll take care of it.

I like it. Especially the buttons on top. Not totally sure about the brown color.

Well if it helps, I hope to change colors every month. Personally, looking at the same colors all the time gets boring.

Or generate a color by the day of the year ;) so website theme is changing slowby each day (automagicly).
Not sure if the colors would be real nice though

I'll start with once a month to get warmed up. We can tackle day-based gradient colors later. ;)

Ben, when you say the brown color are you referring to the strip underneath the menu at the top? Or something else?

There is also the brown in the discussion form panels like at viewforum.php?f=4

I can't say I'm in love with it and I wonder if it should be the same color as the "page bar" (css pre-content area).
