Re: Fedora Mascot
Hy there, A mascot would be brand diluting at this point, so my inclination is against having one. Not even a cuddly-wuddly Fedora ferret, with a first name starting with an F? Nicu could draw him in various costumes, little tshirts, or mittens in the winter. Max, I did not know what drugs you are consuming right now, but ... could you send me some boxes of them ;-) Anyway, I also did not think we need such thing. Ok, it would be nice to see max, paul, etc. in some cute animal costumes ... on the other hand, NO! Please pull out this stupid crazy thoughts out of my head. Give me some more chocolate-beer to forget these... :) I think the Linux community has enough pet-based Distros. Let us be a bit more innovative and stay serious... or just try :) Faithfully submitted, Max Spevack Ex-FPL and Level 50 Troll Ok, I will think about some PR lines about THAT ... mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards Henrik Heigl - wonde...@fedoraproject.org ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
Re: theme song
Hy, Do we have something like a theme song for fedora? Either lyrics or a composition? Sounds like a good idea (after some are working on a picture book that would be the next step I guess). Some ideas: * make it under the cc licence * compose and buidl it over the Internet * we have the 4 Foundations - lets try to implement them ** friends (eg. fedora grooves from around the world) ** freedom (eg. the theme itself...) ** features (eg. I myself have some experience in Studiomusic, maybe I can ask some international known guys...) ** first (eg. the first Fedora-album?!) I also think of ideas like a contest. Like http://www.openmusiccontest.org/ * musicians from all over the world could send files * a jury of e.g. some of our developers and others select some * Artwork from inside... mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards Henrik Heigl - wonde...@fedoraproject.org ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

So, how do things look for the shirt logo at this point? Is there something we're happy enough to pursue with the printers? The only *possible* monkey wrench is whether we want to have some sort of co-branding with OLPC and SugarLabs. I'll see if I can't resolve that today, if it's not too late. Do resolve it today if you can. I ended up not having time to work on the mockups last night so I'll try again tonight. At this point, I'd feel more comfortable just including olpc and sugar in the tag list and going forward with what we have. -- Paul W.

I'm not sure if the goal of those words was this, and, BTW, all the other project != developers would have the same right than ambassadors to see their name. So, feel free to say no, I think it would be reasonable. Not silly at all Francesco -- I think it's a *GREAT* idea. We could add all the following, and more if I missed someone: artists designers ambassadors translators developers writers sysadmins packagers triagers qa(I wish there was a word like qualiteers) Why not just quality ?! Maybe the tool itself could be made so that a small interface can be buildin where anybody can choose a) lets say the f or another Logo Style for the transformation where b) the words (in a textfield or txt upload or something like that) can be transformed to the finished product as we can see it.

Re: FirstAidKit Artwork
Hy, very nice work. as an active member of the previous mentioned Organisation I like it also this way. Most I like the little blue cross (I imagine how it looks if someone can make it glow lighter and darker (animated...)... I have some litte Improvements maybe. - The wording First Aid Kit looks in my Eyes a bit strange in that way as pictured. The i frim First and the A frim Aid are glued together. But the t and d seems to be also, but in the green Version there are open. Also the Line thickness seems to be different... - the k from kit streched over two lines, but was not glued to the other Charakters... seems a bit inconsequent ;-) Here are my ideas for improvement (just brainstorming ;-) ): try using fedora-conform font; First in the first line and Aid Kit in the second line and then Block or centered or maybe First Aid (first line) and Kit (second line); don't glue Characters together... best regards Henrik Heigl - [EMAIL PROTECTED] María Leandro schrieb: this is the blue try: http://tatica.fedorapeople.org/FirstAidKit/Fedora-FirstAidKit-blue.png the guys we're happy with this last one (blue) and they're checking out all the colors. 2008/12/2 Jaroslav Reznik [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Very nice job!

Re: Release Artwork Process
Hy, I had yesterday no time for IRCing, but the diagram looks very nice. Some ideas I had on this to improve this Diagram a bit: * did't we have a corporate Font for fedora? * the pases/steps I found very good - not to much steps to get to a goal * what should be Phase 2 and 3 (text)? * Sorry, to hear about the stripes, I found them ... not so good for reading I would vote to implement it directly into the guidelines http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork#Fedora_Artwork_Guidelines best, Henrik hi all! yesterday, on IRC ianweller suggested that i make an image/diagram outlining the release artwork development process... here is my first work in progress... feel free to work on this if you want, add content, make it look prettier... :) PNG: http://ryanlerch.fedorapeople.org/art.png SVG: http://ryanlerch.fedorapeople.org/artteamprocess.svg cheers, ryanlerch P.S.

new Artwork ideas for FC10
Hy together, in order to a small discussion of the upcoming FC10 Artwork on the marketing-list I had some ideas I would like to give here for further comments. I has the thought if we can't think a bit bigger for FC10?! This is the 10th Version of an Operatingsystem. 10th Anniversery. We have a one and THEN the null behind. We have decades going forward... So just some thoughts/ideas we could have: - collect some/all the (unpublished) Artwork of the years and put them together or remaster some of the old ideas, made them retro or so. - ask VIP's (let your imagination flow who this could be...) make some Artwork. I don't mean that as a blow against the art-team or so (Nicu Buculei mentioned such a thing) but it CAN be a way to have lets say unusual stuff in here. an (maybe bad) example: let Stallman scribble the fedora Logo and work that out or ask people like Doc Baumann, Linus Torwalds, Mark Shuttleworth or such guys. maybe we can work out lets say 12 different VIP Pics or scribbles for that. - put in some photos as backgrounds, maybe from big events or meetings... there are few Pictures as backgrounds, but many people have some. There are many ways to put in lets say faces of fedora in a smooth way... - best of artwork-artwork: any Artworker give one bit of his work to another and let him or her work that out, let your minds flow, cooperate, work out things together, etc. - other ideas... So, any comments on my ideas? sincerly Henrik Heigl /// wonderer at fedoraproject.org // ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
