WebKit Site Redesign

Posted by Maciej Stachowiak on Thursday, February 16th, 2006 at 3:53 am

If you are reading this post, you have probably already noticed that we’ve launched a visual redesign of the WebKit site. Thanks to Tim Hatcher, Emily Hatcher and Joost de Valk for coming up with the design, refining it, and applying it to the main WebKit site and the Surfin’ Safari blog. Enjoy the new minty green WebKit goodness.

    Er… graphic glitch in Safari 2.0.3 (with OS X 10.4.5’s WebKit).

    Probably an HTML coding issue…

    Much nicer, but (to me) the Safari icon with a gold ring just looks wrong.

    The gold ring version of the icon is what you get with nightly builds, so you can have both a nightly and the system Safari on the dock and tell them apart. We like to jokingly call it “Safari Gold”.

    Typical values for type are type=”text/css” for and type=”text/javascript” for .
