XMOS.com - new site

Post by jason »

In case you haven't been back over to XMOS.com recently, the web team @ XMOS have been hard at work, so go check out the new site:

http://www.xmos.com/

(you may need to refresh your browser a few times to get the latest stylesheets)

We hope you like it as much as we do! :-)

All features doesn't seem to work under Opera

Opera Version 10.53
Plattform Win32
System Windows NT 6.1

Works in IE
Probably not the most confused programmer anymore on the XCORE forum.

hmmm we can not replicate this problem - you have forcefully refreshed the styles? Otherwise you will see something completely random if it is cached in your browser... I have tried version 9.x and 10.x and it works ok here...

New design!

I checked it in Chrome (Windows), so far - everything works fine.

p.s. main page is "all black", right? just comparing to all (sub)sections which have a nice white background.

Indeed, the front page is unique with its black background which makes the yellow more striking for a front page, the sub pages then switch to white background (but keep the new theme elsewhere) which makes it easier to integrate with existing images and when taking photos (as products usually are on a white background for example) and the lighter version works better for more text heavy pages both visually and for printing purposes!

To avoid giving the "refresh your browser" advice, why not rename the CSS files on the server, and in the template, then they will be guaranteed fresh. Also putting a 1 hour TTL would probably fix most issues, at only a tiny cost in server load.

Fair point about the renaming that would indeed do the trick.
