#129: Some links are i686 while others are i386. Consistency update? -------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: shaiton | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: General | Version: Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -------------------------+------------------------ That would be better to have only one reference for the INTEL 32b arch. Actually we have i686 and i363, depending on the release and/or build. We need to check if we can't use only one reference, and see with the releng why they name them differently for each release.. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/129> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#246: fedora.css sets a universal scaling factor of 76%, which is much too small -----------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: adamwill | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: General | Keywords: css font size Blocked By: | Blocking: -----------------------+--------------------------- fedora.css, which all Fedora websites are encouraged to use, has this right at the top: body { font-size: 76%; background: #FFFFFF url(../images/border-left.png) 0 0 repeat-y; } It's been there for years, since before the stuff was imported to git, so its history may be obscure at this point, but Googling around, it looks like 76% was considered a 'rule' by some so-called authorities at some point. http://www.sitepoint.com/css-font-sizing-tutorial/ has mention of it in the comments, http://forums.modx.com/thread/?thread=17583 has some chatter about it, http://www.baekdal.com/insights/new-minimum-font-size is from 2005 and cites 76% as the new *minimum* recommended font size, etc. I think it's pretty unarguably too small for the modern day, though. Taking the standard 'base size' for browsers - 16px - and using the 96dpi convention, text at '76%' is 12.16px in size, which is equivalent to 9pt. How many people do you know who have their desktops set to a 9pt font on a modern system? Particularly a modern *laptop*. Reading text on Fedora sites on most systems without zooming or overriding the CSS or setting a large minimum px size in your browser (which is undesirable for other reasons) is a pretty tiring experience even for me, and I still have effectively perfect eyesight for reading text; it must be more or less impossible for anyone with somewhat less than perfect eyesight. Yes, this is the thing Felix Miata is always banging on about, but you know what? Now I spent a day actually looking into this stuff, he's absolutely damn right. Sorry, Felix. I hope this post was calm and reasonable enough and brought enough numbers. :) -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/246> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#211: EC2 AMI listing does not render in Firefox 3.6.14 -----------------------+----------------------- Reporter: imcleod | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: www.fp.o | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -----------------------+----------------------- When using Firefox 3.6.14 I see neither a table nor a set of dropdown boxes under the "EC2 images" section here: http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-options#clouds This is, of course, a very "old" Firefox running on an older and unsupported Fedora release. However, I'm told that the page in question should gracefully adapt to older browsers, and it doesn't seem to be doing so. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/211> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#252: Fudcon header too big ------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: cydrobolt | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: ASAP Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: ------------------------+----------------------- The fudcon header is too big, it occupies too much of the space and looks ugly. On lower resolutions, it takes away even more space. Perhaps make it a smaller navbar or make it navbar-default instead of navbar-fixed-top? -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/252> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance
