Mockup: Joining process
by Vinzenz Vietzke 05 Oct '11

05 Oct '11

Hi, Christoph Wickert asked me to create a more "graphical" way for the Ambassadors' joining process. [1] At the moment this is some kinda click through way through seven pages fully loaded with text and information. Which isn't very welcoming and friendly, especially for new people. (I know what I'm talkin about as I went through it not long ago!) Now I made two mockups: * a starting page: http://vinz.fedorapeople.org/join-process/joining-intro.png * some template for the following steps: http://vinz.fedorapeople.org/join-process/joining-step.png Maybe it's a possible way to create wiki templates for usage at every team which has a joining process. Comments? vinz. -- Vinzenz Vietzke Fedora Ambassador / Coordination German L10N Team m: vinz(a)fedoraproject.org wk: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Vinz mb: https://identi.ca/vinzv

by Buddhike Kurera 03 Aug '11

03 Aug '11

For FUDcon Pune 2011, I am planning the tshirt design. I am thinking of following design. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:Fudcon-india-tshirt-1-design.png The front view use the event logo as already set on the middle of the t shirt, at the back as it is shown a henna design will lead towards the left side, top to bottom. The henna design should be drawn, is there any ideas of the henna pattern. Please improve my thoughts, ideas welcome. -- Regards, *Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera* Fedora Ambassador Sri Lanka Event Liaison - Design Team

Another Pune poster idea
by Máirín Duffy 02 Aug '11

02 Aug '11

This came out of our meeting discussion. This adds more visual hierarchy so that you can at a glance get information in the following order: - why should i be interested in this event? (open source & free software) - what is the event? (fudcon pune) - when is the event? (4-6 november) - where is the event? (college of engineering pune) - more details (description, topic list, URL, sponsors) One question though, what time of day should someone show up? ~m

Logo FUDCon Blacksburg
by Sirko Kemter 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Hi, We searched for a idea for a logo FUDCon Blacksburg after last meeting. And the idea came up to use a turkey. My idea was to use only a tail of one. Thats how it would look like. http://gnokii.fedorapeople.org/logo-blacksburg.png Is just a sketch so, colors are not 100% and the bubbles to, its fast vecotrized only to experiment with the position. My favorite is the third from top. The question is now, go with an full colored version or better with an outlined one, where I fear it have to bigger compared to the fudcon logo himself. So what are ur opinions? br gnokii

[Verne] Wallpapers Need Karma; Current Schedule Items
by Martin Sourada 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hi all, == Wallpaper == as already mentioned yesterday on our meeting, the new wallpapers package need karma by users logged in to bodhi. The relevant update is: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/desktop-backgrounds-16.0.0-1.fc16,v… What whould be nice to test before giving carma? For KDE just install verne-backgrounds-{single,kde} and verify it appears in bg selector and hen selected, it works. For GNOME install verne-backgrounds-{single,gnome} and update desktop-backgrounds-gnome. Verify that the new wallpaper is set by default and appears in background selector. For XFCE install verne-backgrounds-{single,xfce} and update desktop-backgrounds-xfce. Verify that the new wallpaper is set by default and appears in background selector. AFAIK all these can be tested on F15 without any problems (F16 manages these the same way as F15). == Current Schedule Items == A kindly reminder that according to our schedule [1], apart from packaging the wallpaper there are also the two following action items in near future: * Supplemental Wallpapers Submissions deadline — Tue 8 August 2011 1900UTC * Alpha Release Banner due on Fri 12 August 2011 Submissions for Alpha release banner are to be uploaded at wiki [2] (and mentioned here on list). Thanks, Martin References: [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F16_Artwork/Schedule [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F16_Artwork/Submissions/Banners

Introduce Yourself Task
by william staud 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Hello, my name is Tyler Staud. I am currently a student at Byron P. Steele High School. I will be graduating next year and plan on going to college and majoring in some sort of design program. At the moment, I have a broad range of experience. I am currently the Photo Editor/Designer on my school newspaper; that may not sound like much but my school currently has 2000+ students. I handled everything from cleaning photos to manipulating them as well as designing layouts and modifying layouts. This coming year I plan on moving to Sport's Editor. Which brings me to my next area of expertise. I decided to make the move to Sport's Editor because I currently own and operate a website. Link to website: steelefootball.com I had originally created the website using HTML and CSS. Just a few months ago I made the move to Flash. Every inch of that website (photos, designs, videos, etc) was all created by myself. I am currently in the process of moving back to HTML, due to the lack of user friendliness with Flash. Many of my users can not view the website because their computer screen's resolution can not cover the entire websites resolution. Once I make the move back to HTML I plan on adding Facebook Connect as well as some other cool features. I believe I could be of some help with Fedora's projects. I am extremely experienced with Adobe Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects and Flash. (I have my PC setup to dual boot Windows 7 and Fedora). I can also create advertisements of all types as well as effectively use them thanks to my experience in Newspaper. I decided to volunteer my help to Fedora because I love the simplicity of this Distro. Ubuntu, Linux Mint and Puppy Linux did not quiet seem to cut it for me. But I have noticed with simplicity comes learning, which is the best part of Linux in my eyes. I am not as experienced as most with Linux; but I will learn. My experience with Linux will not effect my design though. I can still create any design in Windows (for now) and make use of them in Linux. Thank you taking the time to read this and I hope you guys can find a few areas I can be useful in. If you would like me to create and send some sort of design as a reference of my experience I will be more then happy to attempt it.

Question about logos
by william staud 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

I was reading up on the logo guidelines earlier because I need to obtain a fedora_logo for ticket #196. I am slightly confused about one part. Does the design team have to go through logos to obtain a logo? If not, where can we get the logos? Sorry if this isn't the place to ask. I'm not entirely sure about the email rules and whatnot. Thanks,

Introducing Myself
by Sayantan Datta 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Hi everyone, I am Sayantan Datta. I am a sophomore in N. I. T. Durgapur, India and i am studying Computer Engineering. I am a hobbyist photographer, and my blog is http://sayantanfoto.blogspot.com/ <http://sayantanfoto.blogspot.com/> As for designing, till date i have used adobe products and GIMP, for my needs and edits.currently i am a designer for the college tech clubs for their annual fests and magazines. My computer has some weird issues with fedora 15, so i have no option but to stick with fedora 14. I think i can put in a lot of data for the supplementary photographs which comes along with the newer versions of fedora. I am also equally interested in designing, which till date was mainly based to vector designs. I surely hope i can learn in the process and also help this team with the best that i can do.

Re: [Design-team] Newly-expanded Fedora logo usage guidelines
by Máirín Duffy 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

Hi, I apologize for breaking the thread as my Fedora mail is a bit broken ATM... > David Nalley david at gnsa.us > Wed Jul 20 01:41:02 UTC 2011 > 2011/7/19 Máirín Duffy <duffy at fedoraproject.org>: > >. As outlined in the guidelines, you are supposed to request > permission for > > your particular usage of the logo in writing to logo at > fedoraproject.org. > > The above seems to conflict with my understanding of the trademark > guidelines from: > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Trademark_guidelines > So this is a good point. I am not a lawyer nor any kind of legal expert, and I do not think this is the correct place to discuss the particulars of Fedora's trademark guidelines and we'd probably all be better served if I hadn't said anything in the first place and had just redirected to Fedora legal. Please insert, 'if not explicitly granted by the trademark guidelines' to the end of the quoted sentence to understand my intent. The point that Christoph made was: "Somebody could just violate the guidelines and declare it a sublogo." The point I was trying to make to allay this concern is that following the guidelines on the Logo/Usage Guidelines page does not automagically grant you trademark rights. The trademark guidelines page does *in some situations* but there are many situations in which it does not. So you can't make a Fedora Hot Dog Haters logo using the sublogo guidelines and be okay. The 'Fedora Hot Dog Haters' example given is not explicitly granted in the trademark guidelines wiki page. Here is some language that could support this claim, with varying levels of hilarity: - "the use is only in connection with promoting the Fedora Project or Fedora products" I don't understand how a group of people sharing stories of hate about hot dogs promotes the Fedora project or 'products.' - "the use is not disparaging to Red Hat, the Fedora Project or their products" - the hot dog is an unofficial meat product of Fedora and having a haters group is disparaging to it - "the official logo usage guidelines are strictly observed" - the official logo guidelines state that the groups sublogo is meant for usage by groups within Fedora, and the applications logo is for use for applications running on Fedora's infrastructure. If your application isn't running on Fedora's infrastructure, you can't use that sublogo. You could feasibly consider a hot dog haters group a 'group' within Fedora as it is not an official Fedora SIG or team. I suppose if such a group went through the SIG creation process such a logo might fly. I do not know if we have a canonical group of SIGs/teams within Fedora, but my guess is the list of groups in FAS would be a good start at one. Certainly if no such group exists you have no business creating such a logo. We could modify the language in the logo usage guidelines to explicitly state you must be creating a logo for an established SIG or team within Fedora if you use the 'groups' sublogo. Would that help? > Specifically, there are a number of situations which do not require > permission to use Fedora®, the Fedora word design, the Infinity design > logo, Fedora Remix, and the Fedora Remix word design, either > separately or in combination. Yep and as stated above there are a number of situation that do. > Am I misunderstanding the intent of what's meant by request permission > for a particular usage of the logo? > I fear that if permission from logo at fp.o is required above and > beyond > the levels established at the trademark guidelines, I've frequently > run afoul of that requirement. For instance, the logo that appears at: > http://www.southeastlinuxfest.org/sponsor/fedora likely originated > from me (although derived from the svgs) in years past, and fwiu, > falls within the Trademark Guidelines no-permission-necessary section, > but I don't recall asking permission for it. Christoph and I were specifically talking about *modifying* the marks. E.g., if you take a sublogo design where the name of the application is meant to be filled in something like: () fedora BUILDSYSTEM () fedora UPDATE SYSTEM and do something like this to it: () fedora HANKY THE HOTDOG You're taking a trademarked mark and combining it with 'hanky the hotdog', who has little to do with Fedora. So just to restate another way: if you take unmodified (besides say colorspace and size) logomarks such as the Fedora full logo, the logo mark, the logo text, or any of the four foundations graphics, and use them in a manner explicitly approved by the trademark guidelines you are fine. There is no question your usage of the Fedora logo was fine. Where it gets hairy is if you decide to take the FUDcon logo and make a % fudcon HANKY'S BASEMENT logo out of it, following the aesthetic guidelines but getting Hanky's basement involved when there is nor ever will be an official 'FUDcon Hanky's basement' event. > To more succinctly state my question: If I comply with the Trademark > guidelines (either through one of the no-permission-needed exceptions, > or with an explicit agreement) and I use the trademark(s) in > accordance with the usage guidelines wrt colors, spacing, etc., what > additional permission is needed? Great question. If you are filling in a 'template' logo there are some additional requirements: - If you are using the 'FUDcon' logo template, you may only fill in the template with the location of an actual FUDcon. While we may like a FUDcon Aruba, if it's not a real event, you shouldn't be making a logo for it. - If you are using the Fedora sublogo for applications, you should only fill in the template with the name of an application that actually exists and is hosted on Fedora's infrastructure. - If you are using the Fedora sublogo for groups, you should only fill in the template with the name of a Fedora SIG or team that actually exists. Anyway, I am not comfortable having this discussion on this list and would like to request again that anyone concerned here take their concerns to the Fedora Board or to Fedora legal. Thanks in advance, I very much appreciate it. Hope the above helps. Cheers, ~m

Newly-expanded Fedora logo usage guidelines
by Máirín Duffy 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

Hey folks, Thanks in huge part to Ian Weller's meticulous work in the care and feeding of Fedora's branding, we've got a major Fedora logo usage guidelines update ready on the wiki. The guidelines have been expanded and improved in a number of ways, including: - Coverage of the Fedora application and group sublogos. - Coverage of the Fedora Remix logos. - Coverage of the Fedora Foundations logos. - Downloadable GPL-format palette file of an expanded color palette. - Expanded and illustrated explanation of clear space guidelines throughout the document. - Updated and expanded font usage guidelines. - Overall more explanations, rationale, and other instructions on using the logos. You can read more about the update in a blog post I did: http://blog.linuxgrrl.com/2011/07/19/newly-expanded-fedora-logo-guidelines/ Or you can skulk around stealthily like a ninja right on directly to the new guidelines themselves: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/UsageGuidelines Cheers, ~m

Is this logo final? - If so, I think we should make an exception just this once and have the guidelines live ASAP so it doesn't happen again. - If not, I think we should pull the additional graphics.

Re: [Design-team] Mockup: Joining process
by twohot 18 Jul '11

18 Jul '11

Okay. While the Ambassadors ponder over the issues presented by Vinz and Gnokii, let us trash the design oriented part amongst ourselves. Right now I see two options: A: use gnokii's/tatica's characters as exemplified by Vinz here: [1] http://vinz.fedorapeople.org/join-process/joining-intro.png [2] http://gnokii.fedorapeople.org/kids-design.png B: Use *I-don't-know-his-name*'s characters as exemplified here: [3] https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/5/55/Fedora-15-livemedia-64.png I was thinking in the lines of *B* but adapted to poses that can send the 'Ambassador' message. Like Characters with 'name-tags', mic, knapsacks, school-bags, laptops etc to represent different areas/levels of ambassadorial activities. I made a crude sketch of what i had in mind. Here: http://twohot.fedorapeople.org/design/wiki/ambassadors/ambassador-sketch-to… [DISCLAIMER] its crude!!! The idea: Gnokii could vectorize the sketch taking cognizance of [3] and add some of his feel to it -- then everybody should be happy. Onyeibo -- http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/user:twohot

Report from EMEA ambassadors meeting 2011-07-13
by Vinzenz Vietzke 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

Dear designers, to keep you up to date: There were two points on yesterday's EMEA ambassadors meeting regarding the design team: > * ACTION: vinzv and t2hot to ask the design-team how to improve the > "join Fedora" pages in the wiki (cwickert, 20:44:22) See other thread "Mockup: Joining process". > * ACTION: vinzv to tell the design team to no only make flyers for > letter but also A4 format (cwickert, 20:58:15) Which is - I think - a good point, because ambassadors can print those flyers on ink-jet printers without having the hassle of cutting pages by hand after printing. In EMEA area A4 format is the de-facto standard for printing, as Letter format is in the US.

oVirt Node Fedora 16 Spin
by Joey Boggs 13 Jul '11

13 Jul '11

It seems there are some issues with the current Spins approval process, but to workaround I've been asked to contact each of your lists to get acks for approval to keep the ball rolling. The spins feature page in question is located at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ovirt_Node_Spin For the test plan we are awaiting an upstream commit to virt-manager to add in a tui version of virt-manager. We plan to showcase that in the spin as well. This means the test plan will be updated from its current state. (updated tentatively today) For the artwork we have a boot splash screen in the unofficial spins that we release ourselves on new builds, in the case of a spin this was an item we are not allowed to change. We'll also be providing screenshots of the new virt-manager-tui and standalone mode installation. If you have any questions please contact me or apevec(a)redhat.com Thanks, Joey

FUDCon India Poster - Opinions and Reviews
by Suchakra 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

Hi, I'm designing the FUDCon India poster and have prepared a concept here [1]. Its quite at an early stage. Though I have followed guidelines on fudcon logo/ fontwork usage and fedora logo usage too, I'd like your expert opinions. Kindly point out any anomalies if there. (I am a bit sceptical about the dual color for "fudcon" text - is it allowed?) Also I do a bit of designing as a hobby and would like to do some work here as well - Inkscape and Gimp are my tools of trade.

Hi, all. I am trying to log into the Fedora Account System so that I can sign the CLA for my supplemental wallpapers. But I forgot my username. I know my email is rtgkid(a)gmail.com. I know my password, it was sent to me in the very first email I received from the Design Team. I know you can't tell me my username, but could you help me reset my username? I can't figure out how to do that. Thanks!!! ---Ryan

Fedora 16 Codename
by Ryan Gauger 11 Jul '11

11 Jul '11

Hi, all. Is the Fedora 16 codename yet official? I could use it to base my wallpapers around the codename (not using the text, I was thinking images). I would like to know if it is set in stone yet. Thanks! Ryan

Graffiti Wallpaper
by Ryan Gauger 09 Jul '11

09 Jul '11

Hi, all! I have created two more wallpapers I think look very cool. I was messing around with some cool extensions in Pinta, and found out how to do this. You will like the effect it gives off. My dad says he could see this as being one of the packaged wallpapers in Fedora 16. Thanks! ---Ryan

Introduction to Mailing List
by Ryan Gauger 08 Jul '11

08 Jul '11

Design Team, Hello. My name is Ryan. The reason that I want to help contribute artwork to the Fedora Project is because I like artwork (computer themes, wallpapers, etc.) I like to make computer wallpapers in both professional programs and programs like Paint.NET (Pinta in Linux). I like making wallpapers more than actual themes because I don't like CSS. I do know a little about CSS and XML, but not a lot. I think it is too confusing. I hope to contribute computer wallpapers to this mailing list, hoping that they will be seen by the administrator for this list. I have read and understand the terms and conditions listed in the guidelines section of the artwork contributor page. If you read this email and accept me as a contributor, I will spend a lot of time perfecting the wallpapers I make. I have also seen past Fedora release wallpapers, so I have an understanding of what they should look like. I have worked with both Ubuntu and Linux Mint, and have contributed wallpapers in both of those areas. Now, I want to move on to actually contributing them to the operating system, not optionally downloadable Online. I will have a good time creating these wallpapers and desktop backgrounds. Thank you very much, Ryan

Design Hackfest and workshops at FUDcon Blacksburg
by María Leandro 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Hello Pandas, Ninjas, Aliens and Designers Next FUDcon NA will be held at Blacksburg Virginia, on January 13-15 next year. The owner of this event, Ben Williams, has some awesome ideas and I think we could give some great feedback. Lets take a look: ==== Friday Hackfest Sessions ==== - - - Ideas - - - * Design tools * Gimp Hackfest: * Inkscape Hackfest: Do posters or marketing stuffs for a event (can be help other FUDcons, FAD or local events) * Blender Hackfest: Maybe do a 3D map (since is easier) or a simple spot (video) * Particular Projects ==== Saturday Barcamp ==== - - - Ideas - - - * Brainstorm of ideas for F17 Wallpaper (maybe just a quick talk with everyone involved giving feedback) * How to organize a design schedule for an event * Complete list of Design Items needed for an event ==== Sunday F17 Hackfest. ==== - - - Ideas - - - * Concept Development * Sketches Now comes the interesting part, Ben would like us to have a pre-schedule for hackfest and barcamps, so he can send some flyers to local schools and universities (maybe one call 2 months before, another one 1 months before, and a third one a couple of weeks before) so people is fully aware of this activities coming. I add a couple of ideas, but I would like to have some feedback from all the team... so go crazy and add whatever you would like to see in each of this days and also ways to make people happier with the results. One of the things I would like to ask you to keep in mind is that we need to focus more on "train to recruit"; we know that as team, we need tons of help, but we also need to think "where" do we need that help since the most common question is "how can I help". See ya! -- tatica Maria Gracia Leandro http://www.tatica.org http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:tatica LinuxUser= 440285 GPG Public Key: E1CDCC56

Team Meeting Time
by Máirín Duffy 06 Jul '11

06 Jul '11

Hi, Elad asked if we could move the meeting earlier so it's easier for him to attend. We do have a lot of new contributors so I think it makes sense to think about what meeting times might be better. So I created is a WhenIsGood URL for us to figure out what meeting times work. If you regularly attend meetings or would like to regularly attend meetings, would you mind taking some time to fill this out? http://whenisgood.net/fedoradesignteam If you don't intend to attend meetings it's okay to skip filling this out. Thanks, ~m
