As some of you might have noticed, the official Samba web site [1] has been revised during the sambaXP conference [2]. The web design was revamped and a new logo has been created. Some of the related pages (e.g. the Wiki [3]) have already been adapted to the new style as well. Special thanks go to Blackbit [4] for creating the new design, to SerNet [5] for sponsoring and to Stefan Metzmacher (Samba Team, SerNet) for adapting the new style to the web site! We hope you enjoy the new look!

Arguably it's attractive, as long as you don't actually need to use it or read anything on it. Pray your eyes are as good as a 15 year old or you aren't using a high resolution device to access it if so. It's terribly rude, apparently designed by people with giant displays and/or perfect vision, for low resolution displays of 20 years ago, with no apparent consideration given to users of high resolution displays, or those with less than perfect eyesight. http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/SC/sc-sambaorg1005.png is what it looks like on resolution only 150% of "standard" 96.

All the text bodies are sans-serif. Are you speaking of the headlines? Cheers - Michael -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Also, the color combination (specially on the wiki) is awful; red on gray, really hurt my eyes. I hope it can be improved soon. Regards, Norberto

It looks rediculous. -- Len Sorensen
