Visually differentiate the main and test Tool Shed
Hello all, I can't be the only Galaxy Tool author to have accidentally made a change on the main Tool Shed my mistake, wrongly assuming I was on the test Tool Shed (sandbox). In this case the tool update was harmless, but it could easily have resulted in users of my tool downloading a broken file. To minimise the chances of this happening again, please: (1) Change the page title of the http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/ which is currently also "Galaxy Tool Shed". I'm talking about the title attribute shown in the Web Browser tab or chrome. (2) Change the colour scheme of http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/ which is identical to the main tool shed. How about red? Related to this, you could replace Galaxy icon with a "beta" or something? http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/static/images/galaxyIcon_noText.png Thanks, Peter

Peter, That was my mistake, I had put that on my todo list, but neglected to make a trello card. Thank you for the reminder, I've moved the card to the appropriate section. --Dave B. On 4/30/13 06:38:26.000, Peter Cock wrote:
