Hello together, I just wanted to let you know that I gave some love to the geany.org website today (since it was Valentines day yesterday ;) ). No big thing, don't expect a full re-design or anything.
A good idea would be to change white background to a colour less agressive for the eyes.
Since you're the second guy who mentioned the white background, I've changed it to a light gray and accordingly made the sidebar and siteheader a bit darker. Does this look better to you now? :)
Regards, Dominic
Sorry, I cannot see any difference on my computer (with ubuntu 8.10 + firefox 3.5.8). The backgroud is still white.
I think this might could be caused by the used theme as this is also setting from time to time background color depending on use browser etc.
Cheers, Frank
Heh... I'll be the third person to mention a preference for a non-white background.... ;)
It still seems to be white for me as well. I use a dark-gray colour as default background, but I switched back to the default FF colors, then went to the Geany site. It was a brilliant white.... :(
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and FF 3.6
Maybe try a dark gray?

To make sure what we are talking about I made a screenshot and uploaded it at [1]. I actually changed the content area containing the text (the welcome message on the screenshot) from white to a light gray in hope it won't hurt your eyes that much when reading the text. Accordingly I changed the navigation sidebar on the left and the site header containing the Geany icon and the search field to a darker gray so the percentage between content area and sidebar/header stays the same.
Do you also wish the padding areas on the left and right to be changed to something darker?
Regards, Dominic
