[ovirt-devel] New design for the Gerrit UI

[Evgheni Dereveanchin]

Thanks everyone for the great feedback!

So there's two options I see now:
1) keep the default header scheme with white background, just add the
project logo into the corner
2) try to adapt to the Patternfly scheme as used in oVirt's Admin UI
currently.

I've swapped the header background color to #393f45 as used in oVirt for a
quick test:
https://gerrit-staging.phx.ovirt.org/

Is this more readable? If yes - I can continue working in this direction to
add gradients
and other patternfly style elements. Otherwise I'll just go with option 1
and stick to the default style we have now.
