silverorange redesigns Mozilla.org
September 12, 2004

Through a partnership with the Mozilla Store and the Mozilla Foundation, silverorange has recently completed a visual redesign of the Mozilla Foundation website, Mozilla.org.

The Mozilla Foundation, which runs and maintains the Mozilla.org website, is a not-for-profit organization that oversees the Mozilla open-source software project. Some of Mozilla's open-source products include the popular web browser Firefox and the email program Thunderbird.

The new Mozilla.org style, code-named Cavendish, is a simple, clean, and elegant look for the Mozilla.org site. High visibility pages have been redesigned, including the home page, products index page, and all of the key product pages. The site template for all historical content has also been updated so the new look is evident across the entire site.

Our design aims to feature key Mozilla products more prominently - especially making key new products like Firefox and Thunderbird quickly and easily available directly from the home page. We have also aimed to create a simple, flexible, and extensible template that will work well for large a variety of content and for future expansion. The new template is standards-compliant and makes it easy to apply a professional look across the many types of content on the Mozilla.org website.

While the major redesign work is over, we will continue to work with the Mozilla Foundation on further improving the Mozilla.org website.

Thanks to the great team at the Mozilla Foundation who have been great to work with and thanks to the Mozilla Store for working with us to finance the work.
