I know all this. The pics I posted were just a mock-up of how the site could look 'in the future' when at that time (in the future) XnView Classic becomes dead/obsolete but still available to download. :) Well I hope..

Bonjour,

Si Pierre apprécie pourquoi pas !

Il manque cependant (cruellement !) dans le site une page "Aide et Support" :!:

Le(s) logiciel(s) devenant de plus en plus complet mais aussi plus complexe, il serait judicieux de se pencher sur cet aspect, qui favoriserait son utilisation par un plus grand nombre :D

Bien à vous

I like the new web design: the style, the colors, the font and the structure.

Minor suggestion: after selection of a product on the family-tab, the not-selected products could be shown in a reduced size on the left or at the bottom of the family-tab (they belong to the family too).

The byline, my opinion:
- if there is a companyname, you can use it in the byline (Microsoft does it)
- if there is a main creator, you can use a byline, but maybe not on each site (every book mentions the autor on the cover)
- if there are other contributors, you should mention them in a "About XnView"-section.

The chicken-icon is not my fav, but hey, the software is great. So what.

Thanks a lot.
Btw, I just added a example for the xnConvert "hero" content (accessible by clicking on the xnConvert tab)

Pretty! The orange and blue/turquoise combo is very nice.

Sorry for my belated feedback. Your drafts look both modern and professional, I like that. Very well done, thibaud and budz45! :-)
Also, I like the idea of renaming GFL SDK to XnSDK. This really makes clear that the SDK is part of the XnView family.

as a side note. the "vote for a feature" link at the bottom of the page was inspired by an interesting feature request/voting web service I discovered recently (used by one of my favorite text editor: SublimeText).
check it out here http://sublimetext.userecho.com/
I believe Pierre should look into it, It may prove quite useful for xnviewMP development.

Do you think that a website for XnViewMP must be available even if it's always a beta, with not all features??
If yes, on which domain?

Why not? Of course!
There are many high qualified programs which are official Beta, and many people use it.

No Pierre, I don't think so. A link to a single beta page on the "master" site would be sufficient.
