Leonidas - Lion for single screens

2009-05-09 Thread Martin Sourada
Hi all,

'thanks' to me catching flu and having to spend whole days in bed, I
decided I'd use some of that spare time on adding the lion images for
single screens. I've just built the updated lion-backgrounds package. If
as many people as possible could test it before Monday it would be great
(I'll blog about it as well to get more attention). This is needed
because I'd like it to be tagged for release (so that people won't have
to d/l MBs of data just because we added some images) - and that means I
need to request freeze break and given the time, I'll need to be very
much sure that it does not break anything anywhere.

Note, it won't be probably installed by default, especially on Live
Spins where each MiB of free space makes difference...

Now, how can you test it. The packages in questions are:

  * leonidas-backgrounds, leonidas-backgrounds-common and
leonidas-backgrounds-lion-dual for the default design
  * leonidas-backgrounds-lion and leonidas-backgrounds-lion-dual for
the lion on single screens
  * leonidas-backgrounds-landscape for the Beta wallpapers

and you can get them from koji [1].

Thanks,
Martin

leonidas-background-dual is needed by leonidas-background-lion?  That
doesn't make much sense. I don't have a dual screen and I just want to
install the background for the single screen.

Yep, that's because we ship the backgrounds via all-sizes xml
(e.g. /usr/share/backgrounds/leonidas/leonidas.xml) so that correct
ratio is always used. I don't know of a better way.

Thanks again for these. Its not a big deal but on the widescreeen version, would 
it be possible to not crop the top and bottom and instead expand to the left?


Take original 4096x1536, scale to 3200x1200, then crop to 1920x1200.

Comparison attached.

This makes a smaller, but fuller lion with all its hair (on the chin too). As I 
said, its not a big deal.

 Are we talking about adding the lion back to the default single-width
 background, or is this a separate image ? I must admit that I think the
 background we have now works better without the huge lion on it...

Separate image in a separate subpackage. Different question would be
whether would we want this in some of the spins or install DVD in
addition to the default one (which I don't think so).

  I propose you also a draft of big version for F11 release banner:

 I like the layout a lot, but I think the shadow on the logo and 11 might
 be a bit too strong.  Also, just to make sure, is the gradient on the
 logo within the logo usage guidelines?
 
The gradient in the logo is fine. The shadows on the logo and the '11'
are way too dark. See the most recent large release image on the
current fp.o for an example of what it should look like.
