Leaves Skin for PmWiki
Overview
This is a minimalist three-column skin for PmWiki 2 that was created with usability in mind. It evolved from a template found at OpenSource WebDesign. The appearance is not intended to be pro quality, but to fit well with text-intensive sites with many categories and recent updates.
It uses $PageCustodianFmt to take care of edit links (otherwise disguised as the $WikiSlogan)
Design Objectives
- Emphasize the content.
- Keep the main content area a reasonable width for easier reading.
- Treat screen pixels as valuable and scrolling as inconvenient.
- Keep menus always visible, giving site navigation links conspicuous placement in the layout.
- Be easy to use for both inexperienced and seasoned veteran wiki users.
- Provide an adequate text area (approx. 80 x 28) for easy editing.
- Produce pages that render similarly in various browsers.
- Encourage wiki users to create well-structured web documents.
The skin could validate as xhtml1.1 transitional if not for PmWiki's behaviour of opening "<p>" after every blank line.
This skin is in badly need of improvement, but already looks great here (personal site of the creator)
