I like Fedora. Plain and simple.
I understand that free software needs contributors to succeed, and so I'm offering my skills up to help out with the websites (I have seen quite a few tickets in there).
First, here's an unfinished demo of a website that acts like a desktop: http://pointybracket.net/demo
I worked on it a while ago and never finished it. It was kind of aimless to begin with.
Here's some other sites I've done:
http://pointybracket.net http://amsainc.com http://mvit.ca http://hillcanproductions.com
I'm currently working on a project management system usign PHP and a lot of ajax stuff. It's not live anywhere because it's so early in development, so I'll attach a screenshot.
You'll notice I'm on ubuntu. I was trying ou 14.04 to see if it's any better, and still don't like it. lol.
Anyway, I'd like to join the team and help out.
Thanks
Hello, welcome to Fedora.
I took a look at your sites - they look decent, but they were made through WordPress. Also, your site (nickgermaine.ca) gives me a "Database Error" and exits. Your PointyBracket demo looks really cool, though. Anyhow, welcome, and I hope to see you around. Take a look at this wiki article (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Join) to get started. :)

Woohoo! Thanks for joining in!!!
Have you seen any of the information about the new Fedora websites we are planning? We could definitely use your help. We're still in the planning stages - here's a couple of blog posts that explain the plan so far:
http://blog.linuxgrrl.com/2014/04/01/a-proposal-for-fedoras-website-consider...
http://blog.linuxgrrl.com/2014/04/16/design-hub-idea-fedora-next-website-red...
What do you think? Does the plan make sense? Do you have any feedback / ideas? Is there anything there you'd like to poke around with and maybe build a prototype for?
I have some information here about where our assets are for that design: http://blog.linuxgrrl.com/2014/04/17/get-involved-in-the-fedora-next-web-eff...
The link that Chaoyi pointed you to (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Join) has information about the websites repo - robyduck just created the "f.next" branch in that repo yesterday. That's where the code for this new website plan is going to go.
Does this make sense? Any questions? Does any of this look like something you could dive into or do you need more guidance?
I'm mizmo on irc.freenode.net and I hang out in #fedora-design and I'll be lurking in #fedora-websites as well.
