Re: Fedora 10 theme ideas
Oke let the brainstorm start ;) My idea for F9 was: keep the theme the same any just improve it. I keep that idea for F10. Also for F10 i would like to propose some really polished things (ala mac os). For example: When you hover on something that is done by the theme (lets sat the minimize, close and maximize buttons) it's instantly changing to the next image. lets it flow (fadeout old and simultaneous fadein the new one) over to the other image so that you get a nice animation in it. Also the taskbar buttons should get the same attention. actually everything should. About the taskbar. Pre F9 i suggested to make a F9 theme improvement that also skins the taskbar.. as of today this hasn't been done in Fedora! i made a few mockups of it a _while_ back but they where in orange and to much vista like (with sudden colour jumps). But the idea remains valid. I will see if i can make a new mockup of this. Also the notification thing really needs a theme (i just like everything skinned instead of plain). That are my idea's so far. I will try to make some mockups of it soon. ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

One of the ideas some Red Hatters had on our bus ride into work this morning was to code name F10 neon (neon being the 10th element in the periodic table of elements.) The link between werewolf and sulphur is that sulphur helps ward away werewolves. The link between sulphur and neon would be that they are both elements. It would then be cool to have a wallpaper with a neon Fedora logo sign on it, when it gets dark the neon sign lights up, when it's daylight the neon sign turns off.

Re: Fedora 10 theme ideas
2008/4/2, David Church [EMAIL PROTECTED]: What about a universe? that's a nice one, but not really handy i think. A few months ago i read on this list that the theme idea's where going higher with each release. The balloon fedora was as high as it could possibly go with the high stuff from the ground to space. Making a universe theme now would make it impossible to go higher in themes because there is nothing bigger.. If something like that was done than i would first go for: earth view then: solar system then: this galaxy then: the local group (we are part of that incase you didn't know) and then the universe. that has some more theme room for future fedora releases. Something else that would be nice is playing with 10's. just all kind of different sizes of 10's in a neon like glow.. ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Does the theme have to be based on the Release Name? Can the art theme not stand alone? eg rawhide Animal Skin. The skies are nice, but what about: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/waterfall/clusters/ Roar=Voice, Timeless=Infinite, Flowing=Freedom I out of those the following are rather nice... http://www.flickr.com/photos/steve_green/424383601/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/atlapix/1086593983/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/dynax7/1053719391/ Paul ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Aaah, I forgot... Then, is it already decided when the F10 release name will be set? If we are going to match the artwork for F10 with it's release name, it would greatly help if the release name was determined really early in the process, so it would make IMHO sense (and would greatly help us, the art team) to start with the F10 naming process now and have a vote just about (or shortly after) the F9 release. What do you think? Supposedly there was recently some talk about that - jump to 3) Painless Releases Meeting: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2008-March/msg00139.html I read this thread, but I fail to see if a decision has been made since then? I don't know if minutes are available for that meeting, but Jessie Keating said that the naming process for F10 will start as soon as F9 is released so we will hopefully have the codename a lot earlier. Hmm, it would be interesting if they would pick names from the four classical elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water ... two of the suggested theme ideas so far cover two of those.
