Hi Gerald,
First of all, well done on maintaining a database-of-sorts on various accessories related to Jekyll (and ruby..) 👍 👍
I have a few issues mainly with how the site 'looks and feels' to 'me'.
- The Planet's Home Page looks rather unstyled or very minimally styled.
- The contents of
.cards be it the divs on the homepages / themes / plugins are aligned to the left, with loads of empty space to the right side. A nice alternative would be to have the parent-container fixed at a certain width (yet responsive and fluid) and center-aligned.
- The individual 'cards' would look better with a fixed height, some subtle texture and optionally a drop-shadow (yes, Material Design principle).
Some additional eye-candy:
- The cards could flip along the Y-axis (CSS Transitions) onMouseover and show more details regarding the theme/plugin.
- Consider using one of the theme's showcased in your site to style the entire Planet.
- Specifically to theme-gems, you could have a 'corner-ribbon' that says "Github Pages" or similar to denote those are maintained by GitHub and can be used on GitHub (latest release of
github-pages gem.).
- Specifically to themes or plugins, a corner-ribbon to denote "Popular" (based on stars) or "Official" (based on author/owner).
Easier said than done, I agree. 😃
