We can use a screenshot from our website instead of using third party, https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge.github.io/tree/master/img/screenshots
I think it's way too big on our README. Since it's clickable, can you make it 400px at most please? |
@astorije 400px height and current width? |
Ah, sorry I didn't pay attention. 400px width, don't specify height so HTML applies the height while keeping source ratio. |

Why not directly https://thelounge.github.io/img/screenshots/example_css.png?
Also, <nitpick>
there is no trailing slash on img
elements in HTML5 :D</nitpick>
.
Finally, add a new line between # The Lounge
and the p
element, some Markdown parsers (like npm's one at one point, not sure if still true) don't like that too much.

The spec doesn't say anything about the usage of self-closing tags for void elements though afaik. <img />
and <img>
are both valid and are equal.

It's valid, yes, but validity of the self-closing version has only been kept because of how widespread it is right now. Also, old habits die hard :)
I'd still argue <img>
is the more correct way to write it of both, but that's definitely a nitpick. (Surprisingly, while Chrome converts them all to <br>
in its dev console, Firefox uses <br></br>
which is probably the least human-readable form for it lol...)
Ping? |
Hmm, shouldn't we use a not so outdated screenshot? It's even got the old Shout square buttons, the old nick colors and no room topic! I also think it could be a good idea to avoid showing nicks and IRC networks to avoid unexpectedly bring traffic to those servers/channels from people coming in and saying "Came here from Lounge!" and disrupting the usual conversations there. A quick idea to make it not be so empty and not so big could be to have a screenshot in kind of a banner format, a bit like this, maybe even less tall: |
Do you think I should use that specific screenshot, @maxpoulin64? |
@MaxLeiter: I guess we can. Maybe cut the window borders and add a bit of a shadow/gradient but I'm fine with it as-is |
Let's go for it as is. We'll change it later if needs be. |
Can you remove |

I don't think gif is a good idea.

Something like this @xPaw ? (Rough draft, will be slower and smaller) |
IMO static image is better.

Is there a nice way to show multiple themes? We ship with default but I know a lot of people like Morning. |
In that case images side by side might be better.

Honestly, this is good enough. We can go crazy later :)
Alright, @MaxLeiter is OK with this, we can make it all fancy later :) |
