F10 theme proposal - Fedora Borealis reloaded

2008-06-08 Thread Joachim Frieben
Back when the F7 default theme was under planning, a vote placed the Borealis theme proposal second to the winning Planet theme and in front of the Flying High theme which would become the F7 theme later on. I am greatly in favour of picking up this great theme again. A cute mockup can be found

I wonder if nobody actually noticed how different the style of rhgb splash screen and login panel are. One wouldn't think that they are supposed to be part of the same artwork. Actually, the login panel falls way behind the rhgb splash screen in terms of clarity and polish. It looks quite

At least keep symlinks up to date as in the case of Places CD/DVD Creator which used to show the correct Bluecurve icon up to FC5 but now uses a Tango one even when the Bluecurve icon theme has been chosen. What RHEL ships is completely irrelevant to fedora-art list. So if you want to

Bluecurve was done almost entirely by a single person - Garrett LeSage, who does not work for Red Hat anymore. Fedora itself has moved to using Clearlooks for GNOME and possibly Plastik for KDE in Fedora 7 which is the default upstream themes. The Bluecurve icon set has also been replace

Login manager and rhgb panel

2007-03-18 Thread Joachim Frieben
The current versions of the rhgb progress bar panel and of the gdm login panel show additional blue frames along the border. This looks quite baroque and makes the whole thing look cluttered. Any reason for this useless decoration? The rather dark background of the panels already provides a

The quality criteria is so subjective that is just too easy to use is as a strawman. Ah, and what the hell then entitles you to claim that FC6 has had the best artwork of all Fedora releases? In my opinion, FC6 artwork already showed first signs of sloppyness. Only think of the installer

This is truly a sad day for Fedora and a disappointment for the community of Open Source. If Fedora did not want our help simply state it, close down the list server, call it good. Diana certainly has the skill and talent to do the artwork and obviously doesn't need our help. Letting

Fedora is claimed also to be a community project. If it is not, then we should just declare this mailing list and the Art project closed and stop using them.And just sit back and each 6 months when a new version is released act as fanboys and worship the great powers that brought us the

The FlyingHigh theme [2] proposed by John Baer has the greatest potential and interest. Time is short and there is still more exploration I would like to see within the theme so I'm declaring this the official theme for Fedora 7. Under what authority? ~m I'm a mere user only

Most definitely! M. Duffy´s proposal is way off with respect to the DNA theme look feel. I would have had no doubt voting for Diana´s proposal if I had been aware of the vote mentioned earlier .. I think the Diana Fong's one looks like more to the DNA theme and should be used. The duffy's

Icon orientation

2006-08-20 Thread Joachim Frieben
Comparing the Echo icon set to the standard Bluecurve one, it pops to my eyes that the perspective has changed from left to right. This is disturbing in the sense that the panel menus and the majority of the panel icons are located in the left half of the screen. The current orientation makes them
