New design for Get-fedora section
hello guys, so its me again showing here the new design for the get-fedora section. As planed for Fedora 10 release the get-fedora section should be changed providing a better interface for new users (and old users as well) to get the installation media. This new design tries to help new users while not getting in the way of experienced users who wants to download Fedora, as well as providing links to mirrors, spins and torrent files, also some information was added to make each choice more understandable following some old ideas that i've worked on before[1] So, please check the publicktest15[2] and give some feedback on the design. Also (and this goes specially to the art team ^^ ) the icons that are displayed on the new design are not the ones that should be used, those were taken from google and i'm not sure about any legal issues they might have so, i would like to know if we already have some similar icons to those on the Echo Icon theme, as it would be good the icons fit that theme. If we do have them please let me know where to find them and if we dont have them so... is anyone willing to help making the icons to replace the current ones on the new design :) ?

Now, the information on how to upgrade fedora seems very useful but im not sure if it should be there or in any other sub-page linked from the get-fedora section, that might be something to discuss (again if this was discussed before ignore this). The other download options is pretty much the same i have on the third column although yours looks more polished. I'm gonna try an change the style on the third column to make it look more like what you have there and see how it looks- -- Juan Camilo Prada [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Maybe I don't recall the last of the many, many discussions we've had on this page but I kind of thought there had been some consensus on the design link I posted... which was done based on feedback on this list about the first few designs. As I believe was mentioned the last time this page was discussed, we really need to avoid a field of buttons and widgets all over the page. This does not make getting Fedora simple. In fact, I believe we had discussed the first page being simple, and there being a more advanced page that maybe could look like the mockup you've done? (Am I going senile?) Now, the information on how to upgrade fedora seems very useful but im not sure if it should be there or in any other sub-page linked from the get-fedora section, that might be something to discuss (again if this was discussed before ignore this). I think maybe you might want to check the list archives to see the discussion because I think you may have missed it. The other download options is pretty much the same i have on the third column although yours looks more polished. I'm gonna try an change the style on the third column to make it look more like what you have there and see how it looks- Can you implement the page as it is in the mockup? ~m ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
