[Community] Re: Fwd: Highlighting our affiliations -- MOC-Alliance and OpenInfra Labs, and beyond

Thorsten did a second version (PR#187 <https://github.com/operate-first/operate-first.github.io/pull/187>) using approved all-white logos for the black background, I think it looks pretty good (preview here <https://deploy-preview-187--operate-first-cloud.netlify.app/>;, scroll to the bottom.) I've had a few ideas for how that can be a bit better, and the attached screenshot shows that idea. The new Affiliations link would go to a page that explains the relationship with each affiliate. What do you think? Comments welcome here or in pull request #186 <https://github.com/operate-first/operate-first.github.io/pull/186> - Karsten On Tue, Aug 23, 2022 at 12:30 PM Karsten Wade <kwade(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > Hey all: > > Our project has long-standing affiliations with several organizations, > with Red Hat being the most prominent.
