<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I added overflow auto to the 3 pods to accommodate the fact that I reduced the height of the pods slightly to reduce the impact on vertical space of adding the logos. Also if anyone has added more than the default

Fine with the logos. I think we should assume the apereo one will be often replaced with an institution’s own logo / branding, so that’s fine.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I can make the buttons a fixed width, or push the margins out a bit to make them a little bigger, however all browsers handle buttons slightly differently, so it won’t be wholly consistent unless we use images.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Hi all<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I've added a panel of footer logos and added a few comments along with the commit. For me I think it was important to get these in place as clickable links to the respective sites rather than just background
images. To avoid too much duplication I've reverted the top right logo back to just the apereo logo but that's easily changed back if you think the OSI logo should apear there too.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Reflecting on all the changes we've made today (see IE screenshot below) I think we're nearly there but I think we should consider the following changes:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">1. The logout button should be reverted back to the words 'logout' - to make it very clear what that button does without needing to hover. There's no need to save space in that area.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">2. I think the projects panel buttons are a little bit too small and should be made a bit larger. Firefox seems to exaggerate the size compared with Chrome and IE (see the comparison between Julian's screenshot
and this one from IE.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">There's a resolution difference here but you can see the difference between IE and Firefox with this next screenshot. It's not massive but I think there's room to make the button/icon size a bit bigger:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Aside from closing the 6 issues we currently have on github flagged as v3 release personally I think the most important thing with this is getting a panel of logos complete with links in the footer somewhere.
I don't think your solution of adding the OSI logo alongside the Apereo logo top right is the right solution for 2 reasons:
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">1. The vast majority of organisations using Xerte that I know of (and I'm sure Tom echos this) want their own logo either top right or top left. We have a built-in solution for that but it means one or other
of the 'official' logos get removed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">2. Ideally I think we want each of the logos to also link off to the relevant site pages.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I was thinking it makes sense to have similar things in proximity. Both the search and the sort are to do with the workspace items, it makes sense to me to put these controls together.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Also this is a consistency thing: some tabs have titles, some don’t. Either let’s give them all titles, or let’s lose the big header on the tabs altogether maybe: if it’s not serving any purpose, why use the
space? Also with this, the headers create a division / barrier between the projects and the controls to edit / properties etc. Previously these controls were much more clearly associated with the list of projects in the workspace. Could we put those buttons
in the header perhaps? It does make sense that they are more closely associated with the project list, as the projects are the things they control.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">By default the project details tab, the central one, doesn’t look very nice as it’s very narrow.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
