Whoa, this was a month ago?! :o I pondered doing this myself before UIF, but I wasn't really feeling it. I'm going to start a discussion on the appropriate mailing list for this. It should just be a few new — and short — strings, so I don't think it will harm the translations if we get something by the 31st.
I added some CSS rules for slides to have full-width images, though that isn't used anywhere yet. This way we can have an image that is strongly associated with a slide's text, which would be particularly useful for numbered callouts in the Unity slide. (I'm picturing something that points out the menu bar, launcher and Ubuntu button). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubiquity Slideshow, which is subscribed to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705187 Title: None of the slides in Ubiquity give ANY info on how to actually USE Unity Status in Installer Slideshows for Ubuntu & friends: Triaged Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: ubiquity I'm doing a desktop install test of Natty and was looking through the slide show and I realized that there is not a single slide warning users that they're about to be faced with a desktop system that no one has ever really used before. Unity on netbooks doesn't really count as I think this impacts a far greater number of first time users and will make for a rather unpleasant experience. Honestly, I've been using Ubuntu for years and even I have a hard time using Unity. I can't even being to imagine what a new user or unseasoned user will think when presented with Unity for the first time with no warning or introduction. There really should be at least 3 or 4 slides introducing Unity and giving basic usage instructions. At least enough to get the users going once they finish installing and realise that they no longer have the menu structure and UI format that they are most likely used to. Any chance we can get some extra slides in there? _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubiquity-slideshow Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubiquity-slideshow More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
