In detail I want to have Logo + letters "first" Logo + letters "freedom" Logo + letters "first" Logo + letters "friends" and if possible in the correct Fedora font :-) All should be in a vector scalable graphics which can be used for other ideas also; but I'm sure you know what to do. Thanks for your help! -- Regards Gerold Kassube Fedora Ambassador Deutschland / Germany Schweiz / Switzerland Email: GeroldKa@fedoraproject.org 1024D/F33128B9 4ABC A903 F1F4 D9CC C422 AACA EDF1 DF42 F331 28B9 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Although, wouldn't it be better to call it kde-splash (since, unlike the gnome one, it is enabled by default)? I am unsure which would be better though, perhaps I'm slightly more inclined towards the one with the 'fedora' word, rather than the logo. But come to think of it, would it be desirable/worth a try to promote the four foundations there - i.e. putting there the four F's logo? I think it might fit well within the design. And about the banners - they seem over too simple to me, there're lots of "deaf" space there (just simple gradient and nothing more taking up a lot of space). Starting with the second one and add some more details (not sure though, what would fit there) to the currently plain blue background might help. Also, what are these banners for? IIRC in anaconda these are "shorter" and thus the deaf spots would be reduced to practically nil. Overal I think the way you've chosen is a good one :) Martin -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

This is meant to just be a quick example of one of the many splashes we do just to see an application of the style idea. The KDE splash will necessitate a slightly different design because of the particulars of how those are done. > I am > unsure which would be better though, perhaps I'm slightly more inclined > towards the one with the 'fedora' word, rather than the logo. Yeh, I'm not sure either but I'm leaning more towards the logotype alone as well. > But come > to think of it, would it be desirable/worth a try to promote the four > foundations there - i.e. putting there the four F's logo? I think it > might fit well within the design. Mixing the four f's into the theme doesn't strike me as being particularly appropriate. Having an alternate theme that uses the four F's would be cool though. I think Clint is working on something like that.

They aren't actual banners, they are just design mockups to show a treatment of a Greek motif along with the Fedora logo and colors. Just to kind of give the feel... > > Overal I think the way you've chosen is a good one :) Cool :) ~m ------------------------------ Message: 7 Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 16:42:00 -0500 From: Ian Weller <ianweller@gmail.com> Subject: Re: base banner style for f11 leonidas artwork To: Fedora Art List <fedora-art-list@redhat.com> Message-ID: <20090318214200.GB28787@gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" On Wed, Mar 18, 2009 at 01:29:22PM -0700, Máirín Duffy wrote: > > to think of it, would it be desirable/worth a try to promote the four > > foundations there - i.e. putting there the four F's logo?

There is a video[1] and the source for anyone who wants to have a go at running it. Currently we have spinfinity as the default splash for F11. Do we want to go with a theme specific splash or stick with a generic one?
