Re: [Ambassadors] Release Party Contest Winner

2008-06-09 Thread Grady Laksmono
Wow!!

I would also like to thanks everyone for the contribution and helps from the
Fedora Arts who helped me made the fliers, those of you who contributed with
some template presentations, and Chris who have sent me the Fedora books to
give out. I also gathered some support on campus with staff, faculty, and
friends, so I would also like to thank them as well. Lastly, I would also
thank Thomas and FAmSCo for the generous supports!

Let's do better for the Fedora 10 Release Party! :)

Thanks,
- Grady

Hey Carl!

Welcome to the artteam list! A lot of us also hang out in #fedora-art on
irc.freenode.net, so feel free to drop in for a chat... :)

If you haven't already seen it, the following link outlines the steps
required for joining the art-team:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork#How_to_Join
(we have recently migrated to the mediawiki platform, so the layout of the
wiki may still be a bit rough around the edges...)

Not sure if you know about the open source equivalents in the graphic design
world, but in short:

Vector Graphics - Inkscape
Raster / Photo Manipulation - GIMP
Page Layout / Desktop Publishing - Scribus

I personally am a huge inkscape fan, and you will find it is also a popular
tool for a lot of the members of the fedora artTeam...

cheers,

I finished the svg:
http://omploader.org/vamdx/growth_full.svg
and the widescreen version:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Growth_wide.jpg
The colors look better when the tree is derived directly from the svg,
as in the widescreen version.

I'd have to re-do the tree in Inkscape for the svg, but creating a
wide-screen or dual-screen version will not be very difficult. I'll
have something uploaded to the wiki soon.

Hi Carl,

It's good to have you on the Artwork team.  I'm not one of the artists
here, but I always like to see new, enthusiastic folks with something to
offer.  The Artwork team does everything here with open source tools and
an open process, and hopefully this will give you a chance to try out
some of the great tools available in Linux.

I think there have been a couple of other introductions in the past few
days, so you can look at those responses as well for some pointers on
where to get started.  I think I can speak for the Artwork team when I
say welcome aboard!

Not sure, I think we want to befriend to each other, form a community 
and such. Communication is key, be it on the list, on IRC, on our blogs 
and sites like flickr or deviantArt. Spend some time together, know each 
other and maybe we will work better as a team.


There is also the "old way": subscribe to the list, lurk for a while to 
get familiar with the project, make a few small comments and go bit time 
into work when if feel comfortable.



introduction letters, and artists who actually contribute something,
or at least try hard?


First, there is a large number of membership requests in FAS (the Fedora 
Account System). I sent an introductory message tot he applicants, 
inviting them tot he list and show the DesignService queue. Only a few 
of them follow with an introduction and *some* of them get past the 
introduction


I actively delete the request not followed after 2 weeks, but so far I 
deleted only the requests with no introduction. I still have to act on 
those with *only* an introduction and nothing else (not even an email 
after they got a "welcome" message on the list as reply to the 
introduction).



I didn't send any introduction letters, i just spent an evening
animating splash with my curly hands and sub-zero (not to be confused
with "cool") gimp skillz, and second revision of it now welcomes kde4
users in sulphur, right after kdm theme, i've hacked up a bit later
with help of Martin. Contributing to fedora is easy, joining IRC to
show off some drafts or concepts and receive critics is even easier.
I'm pretty sure people who really want to contribute can do it without
loudmouth letters, bringing some artwork instead.


Yup, and that worked great for you.
Some other people may need a bit of hand-holding, so for they the talk 
part may be useful. But at some point they should do some work, we are 
not a social network.



With best regards to people who do more and talk less.


Even more when we have a lot of projects in need for contributors (like 
the Echo theme development)

This is Open to correction: but I think it's on the wiki somwhere, that
those without oss skills could\would\should be mentored.

As a recent lister, there should be a welcome for those who have at
least got the courage to intro themselves. As it is hard to provide an
example created with the programs, unless one asks for the help
\knowledge to do so. There are a myriad of artists out there,
who maybe just need that bit of encouragement to take up the oss
armour (no pun Nico), and a "get on with it", in this case may not be
the best approach. 

Currently am printing out the "inkscape manual" by Tavmjong Bah,
am getting there, but it's a slow road for me, I sleep a lot
(http://www.narcolepsy.org.uk/)

Even a weak bulb may help the overall neon lighting.

Me too, that's why i took Mairin's and Martin's graphics and wrote
script files around them making splash and login theme. I really
wanted to make KDE4 nicer, and i succeeded (well, i hope so)

And then we can choose our favorite weapon, song, sidekick and go

(Used your coat as example, hope you don't mind Mo)

After looking at the doyle\murphy coats our hallway wall.

Had an idea for a concept wallpaper for fedora (not for f10)

Knight on a charger, framed in foliage\trees.
With the heraldic shield "licentia vox vocis infinitio"

I would like this to be a group effort, rather than a frank effort.
To help keep the old ego in line.

Will do a quickie sketch of what am considering.
during the week, depending on the time.

Re: F10 theme proposal - Fedora Borealis reloaded

Back when the F7 default theme was under planning, a vote placed the
"Borealis" theme proposal second to the winning "Planet" theme and in
front of the "Flying High" theme which would become the F7 theme later
on. I am greatly in favour of picking up this great theme again. A
cute mockup can be found at:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Artwork_FC7Themes_Fc7ThemeProposalFedoraBorealis_fc7themeproposal-fedoraborealis-gtkmetacity-mock1.png


Then feel free to add it as a formal proposal (with a dedicated wiki 
page in the F10 themes space)



Moreover, the designer ist still around which is an advantage, too .. ;o)~j


That if she didn't move on and still have interest in it.
Anyway, if you want to run this theme proposal formally, consider 
refreshing it a bit.

Introductions are stupid. Let artwork speak for artist?

2008-06-09 Thread Pavel Shevchuk
Sorry for being cheeky asshole, but #2 in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork#How_to_Join should be removed,
or at least swapped with #3. What's the ratio of people who send
introduction letters, and artists who actually contribute something,
or at least try hard?

I didn't send any introduction letters, i just spent an evening
animating splash with my curly hands and sub-zero (not to be confused
with "cool") gimp skillz, and second revision of it now welcomes kde4
users in sulphur, right after kdm theme, i've hacked up a bit later
with help of Martin. Contributing to fedora is easy, joining IRC to
show off some drafts or concepts and receive critics is even easier.
I'm pretty sure people who really want to contribute can do it without
loudmouth letters, bringing some artwork instead.

With best regards to people who do more and talk less.
Curly-handed, but attempting to beautify fedora.
Stalwart.
