[libreoffice-design] Re: Flat Icons Wiki Page

2013-03-06 Thread SteveBell
I didn't know where to add it, but discussions of the icons themselves should go on the wiki page somewhere. MediaWiki developers thought of that, and created the talk pages. :-) I agree. Maybe discussions on the mailing list, but why not collect arguments on the wiki talk page:

Absolutely agree with every word. Use of the wiki for discussing anything icon related would be great. Can someone create a whiteboard? Could the designers post as one image their set of icon ideas [current/best ideas] in a PNG/JPG file on the wiki pages or somewhere else? Someone like me

Hi all, mirek2, I love your mockup [1]. Also those Icons are not Tango. Didn't know those existed. This, to me, looks like the direction LO should be heading in general. Nice clean and easy to grasp structure. Easy to say, hard to put into action. Can't wait to see this stuff happening. [1]

Well, the simple shapes and colors were what we called for -- it's a characteristic of Swiss design. We chose to go with Swiss style, as it represents simplicity and celebrates typography. The choice of colors is greatly restricted by the guidelines [1], so we can't blame Mateus for that

This process is all but trivial. And mirek2 is doing a great job at trying to make everybodys voice heard and not letting anybody in the dark. Which IRC meetup are we talking about? 26.th Jan 17h german time (GMT +1). Is that right? If so, we should post that on G+ with a link to a webchat based

Good job Alex. I *really* like this design. Could this be added to the wiki? (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards/4.0_Branding) Or are you still trying to clear the licensing issues? -- View this message in context:

So far I'm missing any timeline on the wiki page: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards/4.0_Branding Could someone familiar with that add some dates to the status indicator? Otherwise it's really hard to tell how much time is left, to get work done. -- View this message in

I love the mockups by Andy Fitzsimon. Also agree with Paul: carefull when adding elements. Too many elements f*ck up the beauty of simplicity. Alexander, did you already mail Andy? Any results already? OT: I'm subscribed to the design mailing list, somehow I'm still not received any mails so

I like how this discussion is evolving. Gathering many thoughts should help to find a good solution. I do like the background. The refined other elements look a bit overproduced to me. Something simple and a little less playful might be sufficient already. The background is busy. The front

Revamping that page sounds like a good plan. Is that the code coming form GSoC? If I recall correctly there was a task dealing with templates. I tried: * logging in * going to http://templates.libreoffice.org/template-center/dhl-paket-und-paeckchen-druckvorlage-german-post-libreoffice-writer *

Javier, for overview purposes I took the liberty to add your splash screen to the Branding wiki: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards/4.0_Branding Imo the placing off the left 3 elements is a bit random and un-aligned. Also I'm not to keen about the fonts being used. The bottom

Also: The splash screens really are not that bad. Currently I don't see, how they can be commented on or be discussed. But with a few tweaks here and there they would be even better. Any chance to add some sort of commenting system to the wiki? Like now, every commenter would have to get a wiki
