Re: Wallpaper for Beta?

Hey Nicu~



- Original Message 
 From: Nicu Buculei nicu_fed...@nicubunu.ro

 There are a few things I am not happy about, like the grass not being green 
 enough and the sky being more cyan than blue, but there is time for those 
 after 
 the Beta.

It started out a lot more green  cyan (see Mola's original mockup, bottom 
here: http://mola.fedorapeople.org/gimp/view/)

But trying that as a wallpaper, it was way too intense and contrasty / 
distracting for a wallpaper. :(

Hi Mo,

I've put them to a rpm package [1]. I'll submit it for inclusion in
fedora later if you find it good.

Hey Nicu!



- Original Message 
 From: Nicu Buculei nicu_fed...@nicubunu.ro

 I tried a quick trick starting from one of Mola's images (attached): 
 decreased 
 the saturation and increased the lightness a bit, the colors are closer to 
 what 
 I have in mind (but I should have applied the lightness/saturation operation 
 separately to the grass and sky).
 

Would you mind applying those changes to the newer mockup I posted to the wiki 
last night?

The reason I ask is because Mola's mockup has brushes that don't have an 
explicit license so I had to redo parts of the image.

Just a quick unrelated question. Is it too early to suggest ideas for fedora12?
I have also done an animation course, is there anyway that I could help out 
with this? Or any other design projects I could help with?

I think we can go with one of those for beta, my option would be for on

I know Mola's images, we talked about them on IRC before he mailed to 
the list.

You are right, Mola's colors are too saturated

Interesting that you mention this, because looking at a couple of the
beta releases for Windows 7, I notice they've gone for a wallpaper
that looks *really* close to the Fedora 9 default wallpaper:

http://www.askvg.com/download-windows-7-official-wallpaper-shown-at-pdc-2008/
http://www.askvg.com/download-windows-7-beta-build-6936-default-desktop-wallpaper/

I suppose one could take the position that if Microsoft does it, it's
bad, but we should recognize they have a lot of money to spend on
design, and they've come up with something very close to what you, the
Fedora Artwork team, did in the past year with free tools and open
processes.  That speaks volumes for this team in my opinion.

I can't apply the same changes sing the image is different, but I tried 
something: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Artwork_F11_Betamockup1_n.jpg

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Artwork_F11_Betamockup1_n.xcf.bz2

Personally I like a bit better this way: the color adjustment layer 
was removes since it made the sky more cyan and the color balance for 
the background was altered to reduce the cyan more. Also the Cliff 
overlay layer was removed and the color balance of the Cliff - Base 
was altered to make it greener. But I am not entirely happy with what I 
did...

Yes, is a bit earlier since we don't know how the process will be going 
(for F11 we tried something new, tying the theme to the release name and 
going with a single concept).
But if you have some idea, you can create a wiki page about it and when 
the time will come, bring it into discussion.


I have also done an animation course, is there anyway that I could help 
out with this? Or any other design projects I could help with?


There are a number of open requests begging for attention in the Design 
Service queue: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/DesignService
Also, Martin and Luya could probably use some help with the Echo theme: 
https://fedorahosted.org/echo-icon-theme/


Tell us more about animation, probably we can use some (as long as they 
are in Free formats and preferably developed with Open tools).

[echo-perspective] New computer icon set

2009-03-05 Thread Martin Sourada
Hi,

I've created a computer icon [1] for echo-perspective. I was having
pretty serious difficulties with the keyboard design, so I decided to
rather adapt the mango one [2]. Since it's also CC-BY-SA it should be
OK.

Comments welcome,
Martin
