offer a few css cards with different looks

Ticket

+commit
 

We want people to know that Wagn can have different looks, and put in a little work to offer them a way to make their Wagn look a little different. But we don't want to implement site skin card yet for Wagn 1.0.

 

So...let's develop a few skins that people can just copy & paste into *css (which we are doing for 1.0 - move most configuration options into cards).

 

Some things to work with:

http://processarts.wagn.org/stylesheets/local.css

http://johnabbe.wagn.org/stylesheets/local.css

 

 

note: the cards aren't all created yet, but there's a sample on sandbox.wagn.org.  This is "testing" because we're now testing the changes we coded to make this happen - by making skins!


I think that rather than spend time building a bunch of new skins we should start collecting ones we like (like the sandbox one) as we go. John, if you build a place to store those skins, I think we can close this.

I did a quick adaptation of the sandbox theme for the Catcomm Wagn. http://wagn.generative-field.net/wagn/CatComm. I'm thinking it would be nice to Wagneer a Skin type on Wagn.org, with +css holding the actual css and a +screenshot.

Collecting skins here: http://sandbox.wagn.org/wagn/Some_different_looks

I like the catcomm look better than what was on Sandbox, but don't see anything at http://wagn.generative-field.net/wagn/*css or http://wagn.generative-field.net/stylesheets/local.css - Lewis?

Closing.

Closed prematurely. Do we want to offer the skins on http://new.wagn.org/wagn/new (would simplify directions to renaming cards) or in wagn.org documentation that we point to from there (requiring copy & paste), or...?

I don't think we want them in new wagn yet, but perhaps after they've matured.

I moved what we have to skins and linked from Config. Closing.
