Fridge Needs a New Theme
The Ubuntu News site, aka "the fridge" needs a new look. The site has a lot of untapped potential and a fresh theme could help it achieve that goal. You can help!
Requirements:
Here are the requirements:
Design
- A new visual appearance, harmonious with the ubuntu website but not *just another ubuntu knock off*
- My suggestions would be to stick with the colours and fonts of the ubuntu site but not feel constrained to using the rounded borders with the top right drop down nav
- Attractive, people will feel the site is credible
- A layout that looks like a news website
- Possibly include a special layout for Ubuntu Weekly News, since it is a regular item and has a different format than the other news stories
Content Types
This is the types of content people will view on the site:
- News stories
- UWN
- Events
Blocks
These side-bar items will be shown on the site, this may change over time
- Popular content
- Syndication/rss
- Events
- Search
- Video podcast
