Re: [libreoffice-design] web colors [was: need "branding" approval[?] for the flier/brochure]

Hi Erich,

it's a new day – and I realise I was a bit harsh yesterday... So, it
didn't come out quite that well. Sorry to you website guys.

To be quite honest, I don't think the colours of the webiste need
fixing, or rather: we shouldn't try fixing them with the old palette.
The new website is pretty good and enforcing the palette would imo
change it for the worse.
(The only really big remaining problem with the website is that even if
you just want to download LibreOffice, you will see e theme switch and
find yourself on a completely different-looking page.)

So, again re: the colours – we definitely ought to update the palette
and it would be great if we could do it together with the marketing
people, you website people and, importantly, the Alterway people who
worked on the website.
(I must admit that I have never created a palette and would therefore
suppose to either go with the Tango palette as is (and create CMYK
colours for it) or at least use Tango as a basis.)

Right, I understand that. Again, sorry for sounding so harsh yesterday.

Hrm, yes, there are a lot of things that didn't happen. Clearly, we/I
are sitting in a glass house here...
