Being realistic here we must acknowledge that likely the majority of us are great programmers but not great designers – none of the design proposed did it for me – they were not bad but they weren’t great, and I want epic, I want sexy and I want eye candy.
So I say this: it is no shame to use a pre-existing, pre-made template. I have used http://themeforest.net/?ref=danols successfully in the past - yes it includes my referral link - an added benefit is we can get through the mock up and conversion phases very quickly. Some designs that caught my eye --- please note these are fluid designs hence table and smartphone ready, resize your browser window to see what I mean. http://themeforest.net/item/spectrum-responsive-business-site-template/full_screen_preview/2035034 http://themeforest.net/item/doctype-claquette-responsive-video-html-template/full_screen_preview/2085780 http://themeforest.net/item/valera-responsive-html-template/full_screen_preview/2194402 However From: Dana Woodman Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2012 3:22 AM To: django-developers@googlegroups.com Subject: Redesign of djangoproject.com? So now that Django is being moved to Git/Github (which is awesome!), maybe it would be a good time to think about a revamped home page for the project ala djangoproject.com? Obviously this is no small undertaking and would be potentially contentions as to what would be the proper path, but I feel (and I don't think I'm alone) that djangoproject.com could use a bit of a facelift. I have some idea of my own as to how this could be accomplished and I'm sure there are a ton of others out there with great ideas as well. Maybe we could open up some discussion on this idea? Forgive me if this has been proposed before as I'm new to the group! Cheers, Dana -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
