Topics for Discussion
• Global Navigation
– Sites that use the correct current global nav (shown below) will need to:
• Add “Contact Us” (new URL shown below in green); change “About Sprint” to “About Us”
• Note that text changes and URL changes are not made by the CSS update. They must be made by
development and/or content management systems.
– Online typography, online color system detailed in Sprint Online Visual System Guidelines
– Clicking on the global nav fully transitions the user to the new URL (does not open it in a new
window)

– For other sites such as business, new tabs will have to be created
• Background images will need to be created by applications. If no design resources are available,
requests can be made to UXD
- Request needs to state application name and tab names
- Requests should be sent to Prashanth via email

– Spacing between each tabs' text and tab wall is 23px for all NON-PCS websites.
