13:50 < conseo> mcallan: ping
13:56 < conseo> mcallan: have you thought about something like this: http://whiletaker.homeip.net/mockups/diffbridge/1/DifferenceBridge1.xht
13:58 < mcallan> conseo: it looks more attractive, and the colour bars across the screen are nice...
13:59 < conseo> mcallan: thx, I am not sure about the design rationale, but it is likely the first thing people see of our process
14:00 < conseo> i always have to explain what the difference page means to n00bs, so i think it could get some love
14:01 < mcallan> off hand, the only problem i forsee is that the text layout must be flowed, because we lost half the screen width...
14:01 < mcallan> and that will make it harder to see the actual differences
14:01 < conseo> mcallan: where do i find your icons (for the diff-bridge) in svg again?
14:02 < conseo> got it
14:02 < conseo> mcallan: never mind
14:02 < mcallan> looking for them... but don't go overboard on the header at top, because all the controls/links are going in the xf toolbar
14:03 < mcallan> (ok)
14:03 < conseo> ok
14:03 < mcallan> so if a single word is different, it'll be hard to see...
14:03 < conseo> it is just to underline that this is the icon of the difference bridge
14:04 < mcallan> we'll have to make it red or something, like MediaWiki does
14:04 < mcallan> conseo: but i do think it's a better layout
14:05 < conseo> ok
14:05 < mcallan> post that in the list, and maybe point back to this chat log (re the one problem i see)
14:05 < mcallan> ok?
14:06 < conseo> ok
14:06 < conseo> does that fit your current work?
14:07 < conseo> mcallan: i think we should place the fotos somewhere still
14:07 < conseo> at least on the first entry page
14:07 < conseo> maybe i am wrong and i agree that it is a problem in xf
14:08 < mcallan> "does that fit...?"  what is "that"?
14:09 < conseo> this design effort
14:09 < conseo> of a new layout
14:10 < conseo> should i do this with xf header as well? this would also reflect the trackstack mockups
14:10 < mcallan> i wasn't going to touch the main part of the diff bridge layout, so this is separate
14:10 < mcallan> i don't understand your question, as trackstack has no diff layout
14:11 < conseo> skype?
14:12 < mcallan> can't for two hours (1600 my time)
14:12 < conseo> ok
14:12 < mcallan> back in 20 min.
14:14 < conseo> ok, just ping me when you are ready
15:06 < mcallan> conseo: i get you now.  i'm not so much interested in coding photos and other doodads for the mini-b, and xf is not an issue there, either (except toolbar).  but i think there's a way to include side-by-side diffs in mini-b.  i'll reply to your post
