From slasherzee at yahoo.com Fri Jan 2 09:20:16 2009 From: slasherzee at yahoo.com (Doug Berry) Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2009 01:20:16 -0800 (PST) Subject: Joining the Art Team.... Message-ID: <880398.48521.qm@web63507.mail.re1.yahoo.com> Hey, I received an email from Nick B about sending an introduction to the Art Team and giving a couple of examples of my previous work. Let me say, right off, that I do not consider myself an artist, I'm more of a designer. I have in past, built several top-rated websites and done a tonne of web-type graphics. I was working on a project from the list, posted by Inode0, but someone else seems to have beat me to it. It involved creating a display box for Live CDs at events. I am willing to do almost anything. Here is a link to some of the images I have done in the past. http://www.scribd.com/doc/9670764/Images -- Douglas Berry -- slasherzee at fedoraproject.org From thinklinux.ssh at gmail.com Sun Jan 4 12:36:09 2009 From: thinklinux.ssh at gmail.com (susmit shannigrahi) Date: Sun, 4 Jan 2009 18:06:09 +0530 Subject: Introduction!

Without a model release form signed by them? Supposedly the photos may be taken by NASA and released as Public Domain, so not worry about copyright, but there are additional rules beyond copyright. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro From martin.sourada at gmail.com Tue Jan 6 22:15:08 2009 From: martin.sourada at gmail.com (Martin Sourada) Date: Tue, 06 Jan 2009 23:15:08 +0100 Subject: Echo Monthly News Issue 4-5, November - December 2008 Message-ID: <1231280108.19371.11.camel@pc-notebook> Hi, We've just published latest Echo Monthly News Issue [1].

What we have is the SVG source for the existing banners (and I believe there should be a general template somewhere, but I am unable to find it).

As you are probably aware of, we are starting Echo Perspective and are selecting the designs to start with. All the design concepts are displayed together in our latest monthly issue [2]. I'd like to hear your opinions about these designs as I don't want this decision to be two people + user base poll only, and I'd like to see more people from the Art Team involved. Also being it the Art Team, I'd like this to be rather discussion than handful of +/-1 ;-) Thanks, Martin PS: Note for new members: do not hesitate to join the discussion, your opinion is as important to us as that of the "old" members :) References: [1] http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=210159 [2] https://fedorahosted.org/echo-icon-theme/wiki/MonthlyNews/Issue4-5 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Have a look at the 'gfx' directory in the data tarball: http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/starfighter-data.tar.gz The graphics beside ships and portraits are trivial: arrows, bullets and a few icons. I don't think anyone (beside probably the original upstream author) can give an exact account - and probably neither him can do that, the graphics were made/collected a long time ago. > And I also need to have a look at the original version of the game to > have an idea and when i tried to install the game by "yum install > starfighter",i wasnt able to and why would i be as its not available due > to non-free graphics.

So here is my initial post on this subject again: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hey, I was just looking through the art list for once in a while again and i would like to suggest some ideas i have for fedora 11. Just to see if they are possible to get in or if they don't even make a chance. My idea for the general theme is to go back to the old fedora days. fedora 1, 2, 3 and 4 and base a theme on that style. Then that style has to be visible everywhere throughout fedora: - Grub - Boot - Splashes (kde, gnome etc...) - Window Decorations (reed WIN-DEC) - Button styles WIN-DEC: Fedora has Nodoka for a few releases now but everytime i see fedora again i feel like i want to go back to the old theme of the first four fedora releases. That theme wasn't bad and looked very good. I am actually now downloading Fedora Core 4 to see how all looked exactly. To refresh everyone's mind. here is a screenshot tour. http://bigmonkey.claudeplante.com/20070619/images/20070619_42.jpg http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=204&num=1 now i'm NOT suggesting to "re-use" that theme in the same style but just to create a new theme based on those colors. So what do you think about this? Is it worth starting to make mockups? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From duffy at fedoraproject.org Sun Jan 11 15:47:53 2009 From: duffy at fedoraproject.org (=?ISO-8859-1?Q?M=E1ir=ED=ADn_Duffy?=) Date: Sun, 11 Jan 2009 10:47:53 -0500 Subject: Art ideas for Fedora 11 (grub, boot, splashes, window decorations, button styles etc...)

The shit looking color (i really mean shit) is out now and that really improves the icons that used brown. But now something i don't understand. You seemed to be a person heavily in favor of the isometric perspective.. what happened with that idea? is isometric gone and is this the "new" idea? For isometric it was relatively unique in both style and idea but this "new" perspective is nearly plain flat. I like the icons but they are not "new" and there are better looking ones out there. If you're going for this "new" idea then you can better just quit and use tango icon library and improve that where needed. The icons you've made already look a lot like tango. I never fully understood why a new theme had to be made anyway. I did (with isometric perspective) offer something different then tango but now with the flat design it simply doesn't offer anything new or better or revolutionary or anything. So please just using/modifying tango instead of making a new icon theme that looks nearly the same. Also other applications (pidgen and openoffice (i could be wrong about this one) and a range of other applications already use tango as there default icons so the full desktop experience will probably be a lot better if that's all just using tango. I know you can modify about every app in the fedora repo to have the icons you've developed but that's, to me, just a waste of developer time. Don't get me wrong! i like your icons! i just thing that there is already a icon theme exactly like it called Tango.

The things i think of here (fedora slogans): - (Compass) Fedora guides you through the linux distributions or Fedora leads the way - (Telescope) Fedora, a impact visible from space And based on those "slogans" you can make up a nice wallpaper ^_^ > > - Or we can get some inspiration from water and water traffic.

Why not on the FC1 - 4 releases (blue/purple like) which fits the name perfectly. Blue/purple is like the ocean (oke, more blue then purple).

We are all going to work together on one design so our energies aren't split and we can work together more. I am at fudcon with John Poelstra right now working out the deadlines.

Good to see you changed your opinion here a bit with previous statements. You used to say that echo was unique and could not use modified oxygen or tango icons (or something along those lines).

Yep, I keep an eye on it pretty close. I think they call it Mango! now rather than Tango-NG though...

Well, for GTK/Metacity related talks, please make a separate thread for it. If you make mockups, I'll consider them. I am currently working on a major rewrite of nodoka (so far only GTK), you can check the progress usually on my blog [1].

If you make mockups, I'll consider them. Well.. here it's just brainstorming for the mockups.. the actual mockups will go in a new thread though a few might land in here as well just to clear up what i mean (one picture tells more than thousand words). To get back on the subject.. what are the exact colours that where used on the old fedora themes (FC 1 till 4)? and what was the idea back then behind the "themes"?

Hmm.. to be honest.. i don't like it much.. specially those diagonal stripes in the progress bars. And in general it seems to be inspired by KDE 4 ^_^ (specially those buttons)... I wonder why we don't just use the murrine engine? it's good and can do everything that nodoka can do plus more (the svn version).

Technically the vote was for the ship but I am sure (and the reaction after the announcement are a reassurance) most people voted for the Spartan.

If the concept is the spartan concept what about the golden Hellenic Age in Greece? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellenistic The Hellenic age was the top of the acient greece time and it spouse the first concept as well, maybe we can use a steam punk, futuristic theme for the old art. Or we can use the Olimpic Theme born in Greece, talking about Olimpic so far was created to unify all the greece's people as a nation and not as a lot of State-city, in peace and happy moment, like Fedora unify people all over the world.

Since Leonidas is a ancient Greek name and a name of a ship, we could use a trireme [1] or something similar (more artistic, less combat). Basically, I imagine a trireme-like, or even an ancient fish-boat (with or without the Fedora logo on its sail :P) sailing on a sea of stars (with splashes on its front). I guess it can be combined with the golden ratio , math etc. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trireme Now, some other points. Sea from an other point of view doesn't separate land, it unites land. No mountains, trees, obstacles, etc, just water and the human ingenuity.

The only problem is the theme should be as acceptable to as many people as possible. So, for the Leonidas theme we should stay away from: violence, nudity, blood, glorification of war, nationalistic sentiments etc... I assume this is why on the themeable column the name is marked as no. But the suggestions you state seem to be perfectly acceptable. There is also famous story about Lionidas's wife "Gorgo" and a wax tablet[2]. M?ir??n, could you start a new thread with the rules and ideas as an official process start point? How far can we stray?

Message-ID: <20090114222817.GI7770@calliope.phig.org> We are looking for a team of people who want to deploy and maintain a new CMS for Fedora Docs. It may become the CMS that runs all of fedoraproject.org that is not a wiki.[0] Which CMS? There's the fun part. You pick your favorite. Best is if you are already passionate about a particular CMS solution. You need to be willing to: * Deploy the installation to Fedora Infrastructure * Maintain it as part of the Infrastructure and Websites teams[1] * Have experience with the CMS to be able to expand it to meet Fedora's needs[2], preferably as part of the upstream * Be willing to package whatever is needed for Doc's CMS instance that isn't already in Fedora * Work as part of a team of three or more fellow Fedorans[3] Skills include web systems administration, design (graphics, CSS) and/or coding (PHP, Python, Java, etc.) in the particular CMS solution, and perhaps some understanding of content management.

Thanks - Karsten [0] We are not replacing the wiki. The wiki serves a different purpose than a full CMS.

In addition, it would be good if no more than one of the people on the team is already busy with work from Infrastructure. The goal is to increase the pool of people, not divide it further. -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Community Gardener http://quaid.fedorapeople.org AD0E0C41 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I had a constructive comment to make, but I think it might apply to more upcoming Fedora 11 work than just your banners -- which are lovely! Excuse my lack of familiarity with the precise jargon used for describing fonts and spacing: Our complementary font used for our artwork is the MgOpen Modata font, and in this font, the numeral "1" has quite a bit of space around it. That means that the number "11" as in "Fedora 11" looks very oddly spaced compared to other text elements. Wherever we write "11" I'd recommend that people use the manual kerning (?) function in Inkscape to move these numerals closer together. If we can do this in a standard way, that's fine -- or if we just leave it to the eye, expecting that if it's way out of balance someone will identify that problem and tweak the design, that's fine too. I just thought it was worth mentioning as we head into the time where people are working on banners that might include "11."

I think is OK to go with a "neutral" theme like this, since it is too early and we don't have anything palpable form what will be the theme used for the release. The beta banner most likely will borrow from the theme development. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro From nicu_fedora at nicubunu.ro Fri Jan 16 15:21:29 2009 From: nicu_fedora at nicubunu.ro (Nicu Buculei) Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2009 17:21:29 +0200 Subject: Fedora 11 Alpha - release banner In-Reply-To: <20090116145326.GF28057@localhost.localdomain> References: <497054E8.20704@gmail.com> <20090116145326.GF28057@localhost.localdomain> Message-ID: <4970A5F9.7020803@nicubunu.ro> Paul W.

Yes, it is called kerning and is easily adjustable in Inkscape (Alt + < to decrease the spacing and Alt + > to increase it) and in Gimp (where we have a text spacing spin button). > If we can do this in a standard way, that's fine -- or if we just > leave it to the eye, expecting that if it's way out of balance someone > will identify that problem and tweak the design, that's fine too.

While in Gimp is easy to remember the value from the spin box, in Inkscape you need to look at the SVG source to know the exact value, so I guess we'll have to go with the eye. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro From hydra84 at gmail.com Sat Jan 17 09:52:50 2009 From: hydra84 at gmail.com (Paolo Leoni) Date: Sat, 17 Jan 2009 10:52:50 +0100 Subject: Fedora 11 Alpha - release banner In-Reply-To: <49709EF7.1090004@nicubunu.ro> References: <49709EF7.1090004@nicubunu.ro> Message-ID: <4971AA72.2020408@gmail.com> Thank you Nicu and Paul for your feedbacks.

Any ideas? Just my dumb ideas: * One person handing another a screwdriver or gear * Two people holding something up like a pair of Atlas figures, working together to support the weight * A series of blocks forming a shape, possibly just a rectangular shape; one block is still being fitted into place. There is an emblem on the shape which will be completed when the block fits in, and the emblem is a handshake between people. -- Paul W.

A couple quick comments: - I would take the outline that is around the infinity symbol in the Fedora logo out. You want to make sure you are using the logo according to the usage guidelines [1] which prohibit this kind of treatment. - Instead of using a specialized font for the "EDU", I would maybe just write out "Education" in MgOpen Modata. It would fit in nicely with our secondary branding scheme then. I love the bright colors and I also like how the focus of the graphics is on the lower right, although maybe this graphic is too busy for a wallpaper.

And pay more attention to the light source and direction. Your primary light source is the sun, so it think: - pencil shadows on the ground should be directed to the down-left; - the pencil shadows on the other pencils should go the opposite way; - the light rays should originate from the sun, not from the ground. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro From poelstra at redhat.com Thu Jan 22 20:13:27 2009 From: poelstra at redhat.com (John Poelstra) Date: Thu, 22 Jan 2009 12:13:27 -0800 Subject: Alpha Release Readiness Message-ID: <4978D367.6030901@redhat.com> With the Alpha Release for Fedora 11 scheduled for Tuesday, February 3, 2009, this means it is time to meet again with representatives from each of the teams to have our release readiness meeting.

We're doing things a little differently this time. We are going to try to work together on one idea this time. We need to figure out the visual concept for F11 (if we are going to go Greek vs. go something related to the Navy or to the Perfect Mean) by Feb 1 which is coming up very soon. The deadlines and description of what we are doing along with our brainstorming is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/F11 Looking forward to your ideas! ~m From duffy at fedoraproject.org Fri Jan 23 16:26:17 2009 From: duffy at fedoraproject.org (=?ISO-8859-1?Q?M=E1ir=EDn_Duffy?=) Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2009 11:26:17 -0500 Subject: Wallpaper survey Message-ID: <4979EFA9.700@fedoraproject.org> Hey folks, In case you didn't catch it on planet Fedora, I have been running an informal survey of the desktop backgrounds folks are using (getting responses from both Fedora and GNOME community members.) I've gotten a LOT of replies, check them out: http://mihmo.livejournal.com/68292.html So far as I've been able to read through them, they seem to fit into 3 categories: - #1 stick with the default (distro default or desktop env default) or flat solid color - #2 personalized no matter what (photos they took themselves or photos of family members) or a photo of an interest hobby (racecars, bikes, hometown, etc) - #3 beautiful pictures of nature, usually with some depth So I think as we are still thinking about our approach to F11, we should think about these wallpapers that folks are actually using and try to create something that they will like having as their desktop background as much as possible. #2 would be impossible for us to do, but #3 we can most certainly do. Looking at it this way, maybe for the wallpaper we could have a beautiful landscape with maybe some Grecian elements, maybe ruins of Grecian columns or a garden stylized in a Grecian way (maybe with some sculpture) and maybe we could follow the Golden Mean in laying out the elements of the image.

I really like that we're asking users to tell us what they do with their desktop backgrounds, and using that to inform how we deliver something they'll like (and hopefully use).

Like if the columns are ruins, we don't want to give off the message that Fedora is in ruins or something like that. We want to highlight the positive aspects... eg rather than posing Fedora as the column, if we've got say a pretty columns-ruins landscape, pose fedora as the vines and plants and nature growing on top of the the old columns (the columns then become the establishment/proprietary software) Then it becomes more, 'Fedora - making proprietary OSes history' rather than 'Fedora is old broken crap!' :) ~m From stickster at gmail.com Fri Jan 23 22:44:29 2009 From: stickster at gmail.com (Paul W.

I could be stretching a bit for that interpretation, though. Another idea: Atlas is a Greek mythological figure (a Titan, actually) that held up the world.

Adminning around my group I found two interesting themes that people like (apart from the usual). 1: A picture of their actual desk. With their notes and scribbles and pieces of equipment and such. This looks really good. I encourage people to try it. 2: Four bold colour landscapes or even just solid colours for each time of the day (morning:blue, noon:white, evening:red, night:black). That way they know what time of the day it is (PhDs can not tell the time of day) and what time to go home. Much brighter than the ones by default. Interestingly they like to do this by overwriting the default background png files (in this case the FC8 infinity ones) rather than making a new xml. They generally feel that the default ones are not different enough to tell apart, but that might not be a bad thing. These are not necessarily the ways we wish to go with the default background but just to answer the enquiry.

Buildings like Epidaurus[1], the Panathinaic Stadium[2] and the Herodion Theater[3] are still used until today. The are beautiful pictures with night-time events. The building Martin mentioned is a museum (the Stoa of Attalos). But there are many examples of Neoclassicism around the world.

Yeah, I agree! I really like the first and the second one, though I'm still not sure, which one more - I like both.

And maybe some green, the first impression looking at the mockup was that the pasture is sand and all he pictures is a wasteland with ruins. But having some misty mountains (the Olympus) should be awesome. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ From luya at fedoraproject.org Wed Jan 28 10:29:17 2009 From: luya at fedoraproject.org (Luya Tshimbalanga) Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2009 05:29:17 -0500 Subject: F11 visual concept idea - greek In-Reply-To: <497FEEDC.8070604@fedoraproject.org> References: <497FEEDC.8070604@fedoraproject.org> Message-ID: <1233138557.4980337da1969@ssl.mecca.ca> Quoting M??ir????n Duffy : > Hi folks, > > This is a really really sloppy mockup but hopefully illustrates the kind > of visuals I'm thinking of for F11: > > https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/8/83/Artwork_F11_greek-concept_mockup1_mo.png I think of desolation when I see that image with a ruins from old Greek temple (tend to get bored so easily) and a very dry land.

Yep, I like the concept as a whole, but I'd perhaps use some ancient temple/building that is *not* in ruins, Also having the ground covered in green (or more colours, if it were to evoke spring) would definitely make the image better/livelier.

Mo I'd like your idea to create a collage from different landscape or other image. For this theme I try to work on the Spartan "Leonidas" idea, I work on the Acient Helm so we don't have discussion on violence or other not connected idea. I started looking some inspiration photos on flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/ghost_of_kuji/2763629314/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/protectorrr/2714125326/ then I draw my own. Let me suggest to you guys my idea and let me know your guess and your suggestions. Maybe someone could help me to find some more dettailed photos of the helm?

For F11 we're trying to work together on the same concept, we aren't doing competing ideas anymore. Our deadline for a decision on the visual concept (basically, how will we visually depict 'Leonidas') is February 1. Do you think there is a way we can integrate the idea of your helmet with a landscape of Greek architecture for the wallpaper, and maybe we could integrate the helmet in other artwork too? Do you have any ideas on what a landscape with the helmet integrated into it might look like? I do think based on the wallpaper poll results that we should try for a landscape for the wallpaper, but that doesn't mean we can't have a helmet placed in it or somehow work the idea of a helmet in it? I like the idea of having a helmet somewhere because Leonidas was from Sparta and Sparta was very militaristic, but at the same time a helmet is for protection so it's not too violent a symbol as you said. What do you think? Do you have ideas on how we can work together? ~m
