84	Design Plumi Wordpress	anna	keren	"
http://blog.plumi.org

The structure of the wordpress site is all there. We just need a re-design of the CSS with a limited number of graphics. We would like to have a banner and a download button.

== Design Brief ==

Should look funky. The key thing to keep in mind is that it aims to be both a brochure site to get info on Plumi but also a blog for keeping up to date with changes to the software.

Sites for inspiration might be
http://showinabox.tv/
http://forepaw.org/
http://www.getmiro.com/
http://www.loudblog.com/

It should be funky but not alienating, it needs to make people want to get involved (developers and project manager types and those interested in FOSS) and feel that the project is sorted without appearing so sorted that it doesn't need people's contributions. Sorted, but not overly slick or corporate. The DIY feel  
of forepaw.org (banner in particular) is nice for expressing that perhaps - but that site is too busy/arty for what we want. The simplicity of ShowInABox site is really good.

Free, open, video, sharing, participatory, DIY are more ideas to work from - keep in mind previous brief for logo.

We like the green of current Plumi, but don't feel we have to hang onto that if you want to change it.

== Technical Details ==

We have chosen a theme that fits the structure of pages and info we want, though this can change a bit if you have other ideas.

You can edit the theme through the admin panel using the Theme Editor:
http://blog.plumi.org/wp-admin/theme-editor.php

If this theme is not sufficient to base design on we can install a different one. 

The users ""keren"" and ""noa"" have been added to the Wordpress blog so you can edit it.
