[Qemu-devel] QEMU wiki remix and screenshots

Hello dear list,

I am looking for screenshots of QEMU running a large variety of guest.
The screenshots will be used in the new wiki theme matching the QEMU logo.
Work in progress of the new theme can be found here :
http://www.nodalink.com/qemu/Main_Page
Screenshot will be where is the Fedora image.

The guest and host visual identity must be "compatible" with CC style
licence.
Preferred host resolution is 1680 x 1050 (this ratio will fit the homepage
css).
An additional screenshot of the host without any window would be useful to
be able to compose the QEMU window cleanly.
Screenshots should be send at this email with "QEMU SCREENSHOT $OS" in the
topic.

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Benoît

Nice! Only, I don't like the remix of the MediaWiki left sidebar.  If
you do a lot of editing you have some muscle memory for it.  Perhaps the
page/discussion links could gain the orange hue, and the MediaWiki
sidebar moved back to the left?

The snapshots look nice there.

The bottom orange bar looks like a menu though, and the text is broken
incorrectly.  It should be:

QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer.

When used as a machine emulator, QEMU can run OSes and programs made for
one machine (e.g. an ARM board) on a different machine (e.g. your own
PC). By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance.

When used as a virtualizer, QEMU achieves near native performances by
executing the guest code directly on the host CPU. QEMU supports
virtualization when executing under the Xen hypervisor or using the KVM
kernel module in Linux. When using KVM, QEMU can virtualize x86, server
and embedded PowerPC, and S390 guests.

I feel like I started a Gnome 3 thing.
Breaking habit was not in my intents.
I'm trying to do something more visually appealing for the first time user
who land on the homepage.
I'll do an alternative theme with the sidebar on the left.

The whole thing is a list expanded horizontally.
Each orange bar item is a <h1/> title for the paragraph below to help
digest the whole text.
But if it does not appear at first glance the design is clearly broken.
I will fix that.

I just realized that the width of the central contents are fixed regardless of
the size of the browser window (tested with Iceweasel 10.0.2 and Epiphany
3.2.1).

Is this intentional?

Yes it's to be able to do a nice presentation with some graphic element
without the resizing to break it.
