Comment (by javiarce):

 @ryelle: I had a look at the About page and saw five things we could
 improve so that the page looks closer to the original design.

 [[Image(Fixes.png)]]

 - **Remove extra paddings**: some elements like the descriptions of each
 feature have paddings around them. If we could remove the paddings closest
 to the section border, the page would look much better. I've indicated
 other paddings and margins we could remove in the image.

 - **Navigation hover state**: I propose simplifying the hover state by
 removing the blue background and the border and setting a darker blue for
 the hovered item. I also think we should switch the colors of the links:
 black for the active element and blue for the rest.

 - **Blurred image**: the image in the theme.json section looks blurred.

 - **Hole in the Credits section**: I see this is because there are two
 lists: one with the Core Developers and another one with Contributing
 Developers. Since we are not labeling those groups, I think we should
 merge the lists, so it doesn't look like we missed someone.

 - **Spacing**: if we could increase the space between the features and
 sections, the page would look much nicer.

 Thanks!

 The image with the fixes is also in the "Fixes page" in the
