1 | Adding a new app/screenshot to the wxWidgets.org front page |
2 | ===================================== | |
3 | ||
4 | To add a new app/screenshot to the front page, you first will need to have the | |
5 | following: | |
6 | ||
7 | 1. The application Name | |
8 | 2. A URL for the application | |
9 | 3. A series of screenshots for the app | |
10 | ||
11 | Each screenshot should have a 300 pixel width. A height around 225 pixels is | |
12 | preferred, but it's more important to keep the aspect ratio of the screenshot. | |
13 | Screenshot format is not important, but the important thing is to use the format | |
14 | that gives you the best ratio of picture compression and size. Also, please | |
15 | make sure the screenshots all have the app name in them. | |
16 | ||
17 | Once you have the screenshots and info ready, take the following steps to | |
18 | update the web site: | |
19 | ||
20 | 1) Put the screenshots in <wxWebSite root>/site-v2/images/front_screens | |
21 | ||
22 | 2) Open <wxWebSite root>/site-v2/index.php | |
23 | ||
24 | 3) Look for the "$apps = array();" line. Below it will be a series of items, | |
25 | which are the data used for each app shown in the front page screenshots. | |
26 | ||
27 | Add a new line at the bottom, with the following format: | |
28 | ||
29 | $apps[] = array(appname, appurl, array(screenshot1, screenshot2, ...)); | |
30 | ||
31 | The screenshot1, etc. filenames should not have any path to them. They should | |
32 | just be the filename. The actual shown screenshot is chosen at random from | |
33 | the list of screenshots, so order, etc. doesn't matter. | |
34 | ||
35 | Once you've done this, the new app w/screenshots should appear on the front page! |
