UI Refresh

We recently refreshed 3 of the main SpringBoard UI elements based on your feedback and experiences.

Toolbar

All toolbar icons have been updated to a consistent look and location on the toolbar. The home link has moved out of the main toolbar into the navigation bar.

Navigation Bar

The navigation bar has been revamped for a more prominent look, adding an integrated home link, and a more noticeable help icon for pages with help information.

Larger Click Targets

The click targets have been increased in size to speed up navigation around the UI.  Rather than positioning your cursor exactly over link text, you’ll find that click targets are now generally wider and taller throughout.

New Verisign EV Store Certificate

The SSL for all stores has been updated to use a Verisign Extended Validation (EV) certificate. Verisign has an excellent brand reputation which many customers have come to recognize. The EV certificates display more prominently in the address bar of both Internet Explorer 7 and FireFox as a “green address bar”.  You may have seen this certificate type already on sites like paypal.com.

You may optionally display a clickable Verisign logo on your store look and feel.  If you’d like to add the Verisign logo to your look and feel, please see the documentation under Styles / Appearance, or contact us using the “Support” toolbar link and we’ll make the update for you. Displaying the Verisign logo in your look and feel is not required for the green address bar to appear.
