Re: Fedora Mascot

2009-04-02 Thread wonderer
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 ...

Re: theme song

2009-03-11 Thread wonderer
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...

 Does anyone have suggestions for the tags for the Boston

 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.

 Sorry for the silly proposal (I've just read the thread): why don't
 add ambassadors (I know friends could be the same, but along with
 developers I'll put it too).

 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.
Yy the way, i LOVE that kind of Artwork, too.

Re: FirstAidKit Artwork

2008-12-01 Thread wonderer
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

  Hi,
 
  Cool icon, but one thing to keep in mind: The Red Cross owns the
  trademark to the red cross icon/logo. They have sent cease and
 desist
  orders to game companies that use it as an icon for health re-ups.
  They do suggest using a green cross or white cross on a green
  background instead as a generic alternative.

Re: Release Artwork Process

2008-08-06 Thread wonderer

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... :)

Ha ha, as hard to belie as is, I have to do some research into Apple's

with the subject.



hello all,

I also think (as i had hopefully mentioned before) that e.g. the apple 
adds are ONE of many possibilitys to hang on and could have in minde for 
the own adds.
Nevertheless, for those who did not know ... there was e.g. the think 
different campaign (perhaps there are more like the ipod add, but the 
making is the same). Apple takes some great heads of the century and 
made some b/w posters only with the text think different of it.

(there are all Posters at one)


and also a video-add:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oAB83Z1ydE

Maybe the text to the video can modified, other pictures can be taken, 
but I think we have some of the same intentions... I fully agree not TO 
much take from the great company with the fruit Logo..., but I think 
we can learn much of this add.
So, maybe we could have one Theme, one Artwork (maybe for F11) and 
draw around that Posters, Wallpapers, Icons and video adds ... just my 2 
Cents ;-)

new Artwork ideas for FC10

2008-07-14 Thread wonderer

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
