Lisaac website

[sonntag benoit]

Pour ma part,

Je trouve que Mildred y va un peu fort, le site a été fait avec goût,
c'est moderne, sans en faire trop.
On veut avoir l'image d'un langage moderne, le site doit refléter cela.
Pour moi ce site fait pro, je ne vois pas en quoi avoir un design ringard
et statique ferait plus pro.
Anim ou pas Anim, je m'en fou, certes, les anims attirent le regard,
mais ici, l'anim est sur la page de garde qui ne fait que renvoyer sur
d'autres pages plus statique, donc je ne vois pas le pb.

Pour le Wallpaper, je suis d'accord que c'est un peu trop, et cette jolie
fleur va malheureusement disparaître...
(Farzad, tu me gardes une petite copie quand même :-) )

Ensuite, j'aimerai aussi rappeler la gageure qui dit :
"La critique est facile, mais l'art est difficile"

Le site était à refaire, Farzad a pris de son temps pour nous faire cela
au goût du jour et, même si il y a encore des choses à ajouter ou à modifier,
c'est plutôt une réussite et un travail dont je le félicite!

Lorsque je vois toutes les critiques sur Linuxfr ou autres, de gens
qui ne savent que critiquer de manière négative d'autres personnes comme nous
qui essayons et mettons de l'énergie à faire des choses, cela me donne la
nausée!
Alors essayons de ne pas leurs ressembler ! Merci.

Benoit.
