Re: Help out with the f11 wallpaper? AND a short hello to everyone!
Hey, i just searched through my photos and found some pieces of work that could be useful. Most of them are those dramatic skies you were looking for. License.txt -file is also packed in, for further questions or so just mail me. You can find the file on my webspace - ca. 19 MB compressed folder. http://www.schnorchelkatze.ist-stylish.de/Skies_for_Fedora_11_by_krzzzt.tar.bz2 Now the thing i should have said a week before i guess... Hello, i'm Justus Holzberger from Germany. I'm a happy Fedora-user and want to share my talents with the fedora-project. I do photography and work also with Blender and Gimp - even want to study arts, so i think i should just fit fine into the artwork-team of fedora. For my Portfolio take a look at http://www.krzzzt.deviantart.com and fon't forget to look into the scrapbook - i'm one of the rare people who use it. I'm glad to help if i can! Justus Hey folks, So the clock is ticking and we don't have much time to make F11 beta. I would like to try to take the wallpaper base artwork that I put together [1] and add some elements to it to match Luya's sketch [2]. (Although I'm not 100% sure the vase in the composition will work but we can certainly try it.) Since there's not so much time, I was wondering if folks would be willing to help out with this. We need some good, clear, high-resolution, and openly-licensed [3] source photos for this composition. Here's what we need: A) Greek columns, high-res, including either the top or bottom of the pillar, straight-on / dead-on perspective, no angles. B) A photo of a lake or body of water, with as clean a horizon as possible (eg., if there's only sky above the water, perfect, or a flat color above the water ,perfect. If there's a lot of different colors above the water's surface like trees etc, it will be too hard to work with.) The photo should be mostly water. E.g., something like: http://flickr.com/photos/rashid4u/2885932926/ (NOTE: this one isn't the right license so we can't use it) C) A Spartan boat (see Luya's picture for the type), preferably shot from above so the camera is looking down on the boat D) Clouds - a nice clean shot of some dramatic clouds E) Olive trees, a full tree without much noise behind the branches and leaves so it can be cut out cleanly. Flat/level perspective preferred, but a from below perspective or from above perspective could be useful too. F) Vase (see Luya's sketch) For each photo you find, write down: 1) the URL you got it at 2) what license it is under 3) the author of the photo 4) if the photo isn't up somewhere online (eg from your personal or a friend's collection), upload it to the wiki and provide that url. Thanks in advance to any of y'all who are interested in helping out :) For an extra incentive, I'll ship out a packet of Fedora stickers and some other goodies to the person who sends in the greatest number high-quality and usable photos. ~m [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Artwork_F11_greek-concept_mockup2_mo.png [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Sketch_greek_field.png [3] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Good_Licenses_3 *MUST* be one of these licenses or public domain ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
Re: [echo-perspective] New folder-saved-search icon set
Hi Martin, I would propose a small change in the style of pre-defined folders (like a Home, Find and etc). Note that I put a small shadow over the lens to give an effect of intrusion, I think it might look better[1].

The magnifier works better in combination with folder, but for system-search I'd stay with binoculars.

Re: Help out with the f11 wallpaper?
Hey Nicu! - Original Message From: Nicu Buculei nicu_fed...@nicubunu.ro I am not that happy on the columns positioning and with them going all the screen, from top to bottom. Do you have any ideas on how we can integrate Greek columns into it? Maybe have some temple in the hills across the water? (PS I think Brian's latest blue starfield for the night version would work well for this) I don't think this is going to work: if we put a dark sky and just change the colors for the ground, I expect the result will be unnatural, looking like a fake. Did you see the mockup Paolo did? I think the coloring was right, definitely a lot of polish needed, but... I don't know. ~m ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
