#363 Mockup request for new spins.fpo and labs.fpo websites
Closed: Fixed Opened by robyduck.

The actual https://spins.fedoraproject.org website is just a temporary solution, it's confusing and we have too many images there, because after F21 we have also ARM and Docker images there (also prerelease).

So, for F22 GA we want to release a new spins.fpo website, where we could promote Desktop Spins (KDE, Xfce, LXDE, MATE-Compiz, SoaS). The other, more functional spins, could go under a new website, i.e. labs.fedoraproject.org where we can also add ARM and Docker images and give them their own space.

My thought was to have for both websites a nice landing page, use the same header and footer as we have in getfedora.org, and make them mobile friendly. The dedicated page for each spin (it doesn't matter if they are on spins or labs) should have the same template. Two or three screenshots for features, some text and the download images, maybe with a nice header (tagline). The best would be to get the content directly from the spins SIG.

As we don't have much time to do it and also need to work on F22-Beta and F22 GA simultaneously, I'm requesting some mockups (just images) for:
* Landing page for Spins
* spins template
* Landing page for Labs
* maybe ARM

The websites team can code these, make them responsive using the same structure we have in getfedora.org and run all scripts we need to make the new websites awesome.

After getfedora.org and start.fedoraproject.org this could be a great step to have new and modern websites for every usecase. I'm adding 2 images I built in our websites repo (spins-redesign branch), they are not very nice but maybe could be useful anyway.

Thanks for your help, the earlier we have some mockups, the better ;)

Here's the mockup repo:

I've been working on the mockups for these and Robyduck and Cydrobolt have been working on building the pages. So far we have spins (for desktops) mostly done, and need to do the labs one (For functional spins like design or robotics)

just as an update to keep the ticket fresh, we have been working quite actively on this design work with robyduck and are getting towards the end of the process. will keep the ticket open until everything is done. all updates can be seen in the fedora-spins github repo.

all done. sites are live! :)
