Ticket 15 "Lekhonee" Wordpress Client muckup
by Felipe Echeverría B 23 Oct '10

23 Oct '10

Hello, I have made a first try at the Lokhonee logo. I am not quite sure it works but what the hell, i prefer you guys give me feedback instead of trying here alone. https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/attachment/ticket/15/lekhonee001.png The brief was short: Look gnomish, Lokhonee means Styles of writing, Lokhonee is a wordpress client So my approach was based on using wordpress color scheme and try to muckup the brand itself so the relationship could be easier for end users. Thanks.

Reminder: Ticket #159: FreeMedia Mailer Design
by Onyeibo Oku 22 Oct '10

22 Oct '10

In the recent past, Ankur raised a Trac Request on behalf of the FreeMedia Program for a FreeMedia Mailer Design. On Fri, 8 Oct 2010, I submitted a Draft Design for that request (Please see, Design-Team Digest, vol 18, Issue 9, topic #2) Since then, it has not been critiqued. I understand that the imminent release of F14 requires a focus on release related artwork, nevertheless, I'd really like to know if the solution is acceptable. Should I close the Ticket and what would the resolution be ... fixed? I solicit your comments please. -- Oku, Onyeibo https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Twohot -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Access all of your messages and folders wherever you are

Dark Fusion - show your best looking dark theme
by Valent Turkovic 20 Oct '10

20 Oct '10

Hi, I would like to ask you to share your Fedora desktop screenshot that you have modified with a dark looking theme. Best one will be selected and featured as official Fusion Linux (http://fusionlinux.org) dark fusion theme. This request is not intended for anybody currently working on Fedora 14 artwork as you probably have tight schedule to keep for Fedora 14 release, but for anybody who isn't currently involved in Fedora 14 artwork and currently has time to spare. We have one but really promissing submission so check it out: http://fusionlinux.org/2010/10/19/dark-fusion/ Any suggestion are also welcome.

19 Oct 2010 Design team meeting minutes
by Máirín Duffy 20 Oct '10

20 Oct '10

Hey everybody! Thanks for another great meeting! Here's the minutes: Minutes: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-design/2010-10-19/fedora-design.201… Minutes (text): http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-design/2010-10-19/fedora-design.201… Log: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-design/2010-10-19/fedora-design.201… Mo Summary: Fedora 14 Release Party Poster - Emichan showed us her draft and already has posted an updated version based on feedback given during the meeting: http://emichan.fedorapeople.org/release_14.png http://emichan.fedorapeople.org/release_14.svg - We also talked about reconfiguring the release party poster design to fulfill ticket https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/164 and Emichan is going to work on it Fedora 14 misc - We have been kicking butt and taking numbers as a team this past release. We have 3 ninjas doing awesome work, Alexander did great work on the countdown banners, Alexander and Marc also did great work on the disc/sleeve artwork, Emichan rocked the release poster, Martin put together the animated backgrounds files in time for release, and Fab and pretty much the whole team got our first supplemental wallpapers pack together and it looks awesome. We also have three new members in the past month, Bryan, Felipe, and dottedfish. - We did have an issue with the size of the animated wallpapers causing some issues so it won't be set as default. One idea we discussed was maybe trying for a partially-transparent wallpaper for F15, and doing the time of day via gradient switches underneath. However, the slideshow XML format doesn't support this. Now might be a good time to put in for an RFE? One thing tho is GNOME 3 is going to be default for F15, so I'm not sure if slideshows will be supported then. RPG - Mizmo was really bad and failed at putting a formal meeting together, will try again next week. - Nicu put together a nice starter requirements document for the RPG widget: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-October/003411.ht… - We went through the document and came up with some ideas: - the RPG username should be pulled from the FAS IRC nick field. It's user-editable in FAS - the example here was mizmo's FAS name is duffy, but people know her better as mizmo, and the FAS name is not editable but IRC nick is. - Pantless avatars are okay because the base characters will be pandas! - We're going to keep this simple to start and stick with 5-6 base panda variations and build out from there. - We had some great outfit ideas such as a 3-piece suite monocle panda, panda in a pretty dress, ninja panda, panda in overalls, panda with a zony T-shirt, panda with wings accessory - Some examples for inspiration we looked at included Sims 3, avatar.yahoo.com, avatar.yahoo.co.jp, the playstation network widgets (http://fp.profiles.us.playstation.com/playstation/psn/pid/mairin.png) - Subtle animation might be cool for the characters but nothing over the top like this http://k.yimg.jp/images/avt12/anm_newcoordinate1_20101013_1f806580.gif - we thought 120 x 120px like the hackergotchi would be a good size to start - each object should be available for each object, having objects apply only to certain avatars will complicated the system so we should avoid it OTHER STUFF - Dave reminded us that Libre Graphics Magazine didn't get Fedora submissions for issue 1 but can take them for issue 2. One idea was for Mizmo to interview Emichan, another was for Mizmo to write something about teaching Girl Scouts Gimp & Inkscape! - We worked with Felipe (WaspStung) and dottedfish and hooked them up with tasks from the Design Team queue. WaspStung will be working on a Lekhonee logo and dottedfish will be working on a Fedora podcast logo. ~m

Website redesign fixes
by Jef van Schendel 20 Oct '10

20 Oct '10

Hi everyone, As you probably know, the new Fedora website is being finished right now. Now we want to check everything and make sure it's all in tip top shape and ready to be released. I've started a page[1] where we can document all the little fixes that still need to be done. Think CSS fixes, missing images, missing links, stuff like that. If you've got some time, please go over the pages on http://stg.fedoraproject.org/ and check them for any mistakes/errors/bugz. If you find any, post 'em on the page. :) Hop over to #fedora-websites if you've got any questions. Jef [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Website_redesign/WwwfpoFixes

The new system-config-icon for ticket #99 is complete and I'm ready for some assistance in moving this forward. The icon images can be previewed here... http://xorengineering.com/dev/icons/ And the SVG source file and images in a tarball are here... http://xorengineering.com/dev/icons/system-config-boot-icon.tgz Thanks for all the assistance in putting this together, there were some gaps in my Inkscape and SVG knowledge and skills that have now been filled. I'm looking forward to taking on another ticket once this one is put to bed. Bryan

Hello Everyone.
by Felipe Echeverría B 19 Oct '10

19 Oct '10

Hello everyone. I am Felipe from México City i am a graphic designer. I am 35 years old and i have worked for some dot-com companies in the past. I am an avid advocate of pinguins and since 1995 i am a Linux user. I studied my professional licensed degree in graphic design at Mexico City Universidad Iberoamericana <http:%5C%5Cwww.uia.mx> and my skils have been spread into several cathegories: Web, packaging, typography, illustration, animation, and all sorts of graphic magic. I personally enjoy signaling and communication theory and fundamentals. I have read the documents on the wiki page and i am starting the process, so my next step is to read the CLA document and after that i will take a look at the ticket spool and see where can i help. I hope i can give back a little bit of what this community has given to me. Regards! Felipe.
