Well, it makes things more effective when correct typography is used
right from the start (hence why you prof. has been torturing you for
hyphens even in mock-ups) ;-)

The general layout is pretty much the same I was thinking about. I only 
think it may be too much blue, I would like the photo bigger and less 
empty (blue) space, something more like 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Friendsmockup_N.png (however, I am 
not sure about chaper2: friends being on top of the photo)


Another possibility to to somehow use the icons for each F: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Friendsmockup_N1.png




Let the games begin! :) My concept for the theme of the book here is a guide on 
how to be Fedora. There would be 4 chapters, freedom, friends, features, first. 
The photos for each chapter will have the model's perspective on the chapter's 
four f, talking about how that f affects their life and affects their role in 
Fedora. Then below that, per picture, we could suggest to the readers how they 
can bring that into their own life with a suggestion. Kind of a call to action.


This is a good concept. And if we don't have a quote from the model, we 
can write something by ourselves, maybe a neutral text or a quote from 
someone who know the model.

Heh, are em dashes actually used in English? In Czech we use only
hyphens, - (like in screen-cast), and en dashes, – (when separating
sentences, denoting ranges, etc.)... Em dashes, —, seem over too long
(to me) ;-) Although, for some reason my evolution displays both the en
dash and em dash with same length (which is wrong)...

In English typography, I've seen em dashes used far more often than
not to separate clauses of interjection -- like this one! -- but
whereas ASCII text generally represents an em dash as three hyphens
(---), most people type it as two or (shudder) one.

My mutt client displays your hyphen, en dash, and emdash above as
three different lengths as intended.

 Can we organize all the mockups here:

 Just add [[Category:Picture book mockups]] to the description of the
 uploaded PNG on the wiki. You can upload the SVG too, but link to it
 from the PNG's description; don't include the category tag on SVGs.

I personally quite like N and N1, not the last template though.

But the whole idea is really cool, definitely!

yay yay yay :D

See also: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Picture_book

So currently we're looking for design mockups as well as how all the
stories should tie into the four foundations, etc.

We really need as much collaboration on this as we can get. If you've
got extra time, please help us out! :D

This is awesome Máirín! Love the concept of splitting into the four Fs and
