Mock up new BRL-CAD website interface design (#3)

completed by: Gauravjeet Singh

mentors: Sean

 

BRL-CAD's main website needs a facelift.  Design a new website interface mock-up.  Emphasize the look and feel of the site with a carefully thought out layout and graphical appeal.

You're welcome to create your own concept artwork, put boxes saying "logo goes here", or use our new logos:

  • http://brlcad.org/d/node/92
  • http://brlcad.org/images/logo  (just don't use the old eagle logo)
You can submit an image, photoshop files, working html files, or even a pen and paper sketch (but it better be impressive and complete).
 

If we like your design, a follow-up task may be posted to turn your design into a proper drupal and/or mediawiki theme (so you may want to demo the design in CSS anyways).

Here are some examples of other open source project websites that are relevant:

You may want to look at what some other students have already submitted as there are multiple website design tasks.
