[ubuntu-art] Xubuntu Blender Wallpapers

There's some activity at http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=205084page=1 Help with providing feedback and guidance appreciated, especially from members of the Xubuntu team. -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

(...) First I think that it would be helpful to have some palette, even if only for inspiration. I have worked on the palette for greybird for some time, I wouldn't say it's written in stone, but I don't think I'd like to change it drastically. Up to now I've only gotten very little specific feedback, so that would be one thing I'd appreciate. Please be as specific as you can be, stuff like it looks dull isn't very helpful/constructive criticism :) I installed Xfce, the Greybird theme and Faenza-Xfce on my Ubuntu. I had to rename (hide) my ~/.gtkrc-2.0 to get rid of some leftovers of the Ambience theme in the panel and widget theme. I guess the panel might end up looking different in an Xubuntu install, but this is far as I will go to take screenshots, now. Using my background-context-extractor tool resulted in: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Specs/0007_Xubuntu_Natty_Wallpaper?action=AttachFiledo=gettarget=xfce_greybird_2010-12-11_1280x1024_context_desktop.png https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Specs/0007_Xubuntu_Natty_Wallpaper?action=AttachFiledo=gettarget=xfce_greybird_2010-12-11_1280x1024_context_desktop.png (Opening in a browser will not show that these have transparent background.) The icon labels on the desktop depend on the chosen background and the screenshot approach can't replicate this. Remember, we want to express high performance, the kind you get by making the most of what you have, lightweight and clever. The Greybird theme as is seems quite appropriate to me under this aspects. Its fairly neutral tones leave much room for the wallpaper. You could dare to use a more energetic color for selections, also increasing the contrast for the text of selected items. The step from the head (title and menu-bar) to the window background color is not nice. There should be either no visible step, or a clearly intended difference. The difference in contrast between focused window titles and menu text seems odd to me. Focused vs unfocused is a bit subtle. -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Actually if you could backburner this and instead provide more unpolished options, I believe it would be more productive. Remember, let's try to keep at 'proposing'. Separate colour palette, backing forms, and compositional elements into their respective categories.

Re: [ubuntu-art] Xubuntu
What I like about v3 in comparison to v1 and v2 is the way it looks as if the objects are cut out of blue and gray glass as opposed to the much more opaque chromed blue pieces in the first two. Transparency can be a nice quality, especially if it's rather subtle.

Thank you immensely for taking the time to document your work jmak! It should go without saying that the works are unfinished -- in fact -- it is far superior to have loose mock ups during a development phase such as this. Let's hope we manage to stimulate some more contributions on the Proposal side. Brief notes: * Chrome look is wonderful. Mouse feels the need to homogenize to the look perhaps? Chrome mouse tweak? Cleave from solid black mouse? Ideas? * Logo version two offers subtle contrasts which help to elevate its appearance. Very appealing. * Logon composition is centre punched. Perhaps work towards a more classical distribution considering the weight of the rendered logon panel. * Is there a way to integrate the lovely chrome look with the wallpaper in some way to create a seamless feel? Great work jmak! Thanks again for taking the time. If you wouldn't mind, I am quite sure that your work would be welcome under the Artwork section of the wiki for newcomers to examine. Renaming the page is relatively painless, and the current template for the artwork area shows subpages automatically.
