A different look on Rietveld

[Andi Albrecht]

Thanks to our beloved and ever hungry cat I was up this morning
rrrealy early and found myself in a CSS and markup mood. So I took
this chance to play with the templates. Finally I came up with a
version that borrows its look and feel from Google's code site.

If you want to have a look at it, I've uploaded a testing version
here: http://2.5.tastycrabs.appspot.com

If someone's interested in the patch set for this skin:
http://2.5.tastycrabs.appspot.com/150

The changes on the Python side are very minimal, most of this is done
just with templates.

Regards,

Andi

Looks very cool, I like it. :)

Looks great, but I would rather have something *less* Googley-looking
-- I don't want Rietveld to be mistaken for an official corporate
Google offering! Perhaps just choosing a different color palette would
do it? I also don't think I like the duplication of Settings as a tab
*and* a link in the list of stuff on the the top right.

It really shouldn't look too much like the code site. But don't let
*me* choose colors! This will definetely fail... ;-)

But I think a unique style for Rietveld can easily archived with some
simple modifications in the styles, like a distinct color scheme, some
rounding here and more edges there...

Here's another ungooglified version: http://2.17.tastycrabs.appspot.com

Let me know what you think, what you like and what not... Maybe there
are some parts we can take over (or maybe not... ;-)
