Thank you both for your feedback - really fast, and I really
appreciate it!
Frederic first:
I've darkened the links a bit, down from #736DAB to #534D8B. I still
think this a bit unclear, considered making the links bold but that
might be a bit TOO much. Not sure though, but this colour change does
make them a bit more readable.
The search box on the left is in pretty active design at the moment.
My idea was to have helper text in each box (Artist, Label, etc) that
disappeared on click. I made this light gray and italic so not to
distract from the main page, and it does turn full black when you
click on a box to type in it.
The thing with having the sidebar so narrow is that fitting the
labels for the search fields is now tricky, without reducing the size
of the search field. I'd love to hear if anyone has any other ideas
on making the search on the sidebar both accessible and practical!
The tab order I hadn't really considered, that was just copied
verbatim from the original design. I have now re-arranged them, as
you suggested. I hope it won't confuse too many people though! I've
also re-arranged the submenus too, into alphabetical order, but it's
easy to revert - so please scream if you don't like this :)
Wasn't quite sure what you meant about the browse release page in
reference to the tabs, mind clarifiying?
The top menu should be navigable with just a keyboard, but not in one
session, you'll have to go to separate pages. I'll look into working
some javascript-fu on that in the future (but not for this merge)
Thanks for the feedback Frederic, hope I'm on the right lines with
these updated changes!
