Re: F11 visual concept idea - greek

 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. That picture would mean
Fedora after collapse. Greece is famous with its olive field so the land needs
to be green. I see mountain that look like Olympia and the sky appears to be a
god/goddess land. That image needs to be live, not dead. Let see what the next
iteration will bring.

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.

Well, based on what I've read so far, I gave it a try and produced this:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Artwork_F11-thermopylae-greek-mockup.jpg 

Maybe too detailed, but I just want to point out the main concept, which
is the combination of ancient Greece and nature (water, mountains with a
lot of green).

Sorry if I messed the gallery table a bit :

 Hey thanks Konstantinos (and everyone else)! I'll try to make the image  
 more alive and green like your mockup!

I like the idea. A question - is it possible/should we look for a full
photo (appropriately licensed) that can be used?

(For example, http://flickr.com/photos/11909...@n00/2184295492/ doesn't
have the right license, but it's the right sort of idea.)

Wow, searching by license pulls a lot fewer than I'd hope. But still
there are some that may be useful:
