We have a number of developments underway in the labs, unfortunately none of them are of much use or interest until we can actually show them to you. In the meantime however we have done a number of things entirely about what we can show you. From the very first day of our launch last year the question of how images should be displayed on every page of Ekaweeka has been a difficult one.
Should they align to the top? Should they float in the center? How big should they be? One of the biggest choices was if we should crop the photos we display in the main browsing and navigation sections of Ekaweeka. It was our consensus that we would display them as you guys had uploaded them - keeping true to your content, showing it as you had made it.
So here we are 6 months down the road, a little more grown up, a little more proud. With a new perspective we realized the appearance (especially on the home page) of Ekaweeka with the natural shapes of the photos; squares and rectangles, was a little too chaotic. So we played around with the idea of cropping and found that it really freshened things up!
Tell us what you think, we've used the method on the index page, and all the main browsing pages, everything else is still 100% true to form.
