We launched the new shiny design for the wiki on Monday. It was a little rough but we sorted out most of the bugs, even the newsfeed is working again :-). Now we have a more unified look of all openSUSE pages, just compare news, download and the wiki. Thanks to all who helped us to make this great redesign!

For all wiki maintainers: please look at Frank’s HOWTO mail on the wiki mailinglist.

The font is too small on the wiki.
opensuse news font size is ok (compare it)

If I want to have a small font, I will configure it in my browser - a default of 75% is senseless.

But overall - nice!

Thanks for the feedback, please join the discussion on the opensuse-wiki mailinglist. Dunno if there is a special reason for 75% …

Sorry, I don’t want to subscribe but you can post a copy if you want.

I suggest to set the font size in the middle pane to 100% and keep it small on
the side bars (but not so small - more like on news.opensuse.org (81.25%))

That is why there is a default font size - people can adjust it to read it like
they like - but a default of 75% is, in my opinion, senseless.

The font is too small in all opensuse.org site, my screen is 17″ 1152×860 and my eye vision is normal, but I have to enlarge the font size.

The design is very nice. In particular, the colour scheme is very well thought-out. Fonts, linkwise, are a weak point. It is not that they are too small.. too thin, more like.

Addendum; looking over the whole site I can safely say there are too many different fonts used. The font chosen for the navigation links is a good font, but it clashes with all the other fonts used.. and the contrast makes it look anemic.

I confirm that font is too small.It could be little bigger.

In Konqueror, the edge openSUSE logo is cut off on the news and download sites and the logo is scaled down on the wiki. After Ctrl + it becomes good. Screenshots: ftp://soroksaci.dyndns.org/gd/tmp

Sorry, probably the view was scaled down when the problem occured.
