I changed the style and tested *only* on l10n. I don't know what other website currently use that so I don't know if it can break something else.
For l10n, some css code must be also changed in its own repo. I'm creating the diff right away.

The capacity repository is not in Phabricator (and neither is any other website repo, apparently). KDE has not yet "switched to Phabricator", only a few projects and repositories are available.
I assume patches should still be sent via Reviewboard for now,
I don't think it's a good idea changing these values here directly in css.php since will affect all other sites using the "newlayout" layout of capacity.
As far as i can see it there's we have two options:
I copied the newmayout to newlayout2 and created a new .css file instead. In l10n, the only other change will be in sites.inc
Better now?
I'd prefer if the new file was called css_newlayout2.php instead of css_new.php

I have the feeling the left bar grows a bit too much http://i.imgur.com/dZWHUeQ.png
Can that be limited? Or is that good and it's just me that have not much idea about "what looks nice" :D
@aacid What did you think about http://api.kde.org/frameworks-api/frameworks5-apidocs/ ?
I'm just putting the same style. I can reduce and so on, but I would need more precise directions... If you think the current online version is better, it can stay like it is.
The thing is that page was already very wide before (or so says http://web.archive.org/web/20150905161257/http://api.kde.org/frameworks-api/frameworks5-apidocs/ )
Anyway as said i'm not the one that has the better visual taste so i may be just wrong.
Did anyone suggest you to do this change or you did it on your own? If someone suggested it maybe you can point them to my screenshot and the current code so they can see if they like it more?
Sorry for the harsh answer.. I picked the task myself because it seems to me that it doesn't look good. I changed the code, and I'm not really sure what direction I should go. Thanks for reviewing: I'll try to think about the size (my screen is only 14''. so on a bigger one it might not render as well as for me). I'll come back here when I have new ideas.
It was a hard day. Time to sleep for me.
When you say you picked the task you mean you said "this looks ugly, let's make it look nicer" and not "i went into a list someone made of web pages and picked one from there", right?

As said i have not the most of the visual/design skills, my input is not the best, you may want to seek some opinions in https://forum.kde.org/viewforum.php?f=285
I was using a lot api.kde.org, found it ugly, so worked on this. Then I took in order the websites having the same style to progressively unify all theses websites.
I'll check the forum post. Thank you for all your advice.

I already sent a mail on the mailinglist last week: no answer yet.
the latest addition didn't seem to have made it into the diff.
But with that i guess this qualifies as a valid addition to the repo. There is no functional change on capacity anyway, just a new theme, which needs to be switched to in the site's config.
Sure, but the idea here is that someone has to agree this looks better than the other layout, otherwise what's the point of adding it.
I just can't be the judge if it looks better or not since i'm not very expert on that side.
Ken (who deals with the kde.org website) and neverendigo already told me it was better with my modifications. I push it on the website, and then wait for @ltoscano to accept the update for the l10n website.
