I was trying to figure where is the best place to reply: on the wiki 
where almost nobody seems to read comments, on your blog where I need a 
LJ account, so here is probably the best place.


Yes, I think it is too purple. It would be the *first* Fedora release 
with non-blue graphics. (note: yes, I know you received complaints 
"PLEASE not have an ALL BLUE background again", but I believe the color 
blue is part of our identity) Anyway, I think all purple is better than 
the blue-purple combination you tried in some places.


I don't think is too distracting as a background, the white is soft and 
blurred, not solid, hard and contrasting.

Perhaps you should make the bridge a little bit abstract or subtle. The last
background feels strange as the rays look distracting.

Would you mind posting some screenshots with the rawhide window manager

I'm afraid I'm going to complain about colours again :)

Purple is to be used very sparingly in artwork. You'll almost never
see largely purple pages in ads or magazines, because that's a colour
many people don't react well too (learnt it the hard way a few years
ago). Seems we're wired to associate purple with sickness.

If you do purple you need a very contrasting colour so the result does
not appear predominantly purple. That or a red fringing.

In a previous life I helped organise an event. We organised a
competition to choose the picture that would appear on brochures,
leaflets, ads, etc The design winner was purplish (with a bluish
gradient, just like your mokups).

The print shop warned us this was not a popular colour and we'd be
well advised to ask the designer to change the main tone. We went
through anyway. On hindsight this was a mistake - we had many remarks
on the colour, and even today I have mixed feelings when I  look at
the art material I kept as a remembrance (esp compared to the ones
produced by the teams that organised the previous and next iterations)

Since then I've looked twice whenever I encounter purple artwork. I've
found out the print shop was right - it is very rarely used, and when
it is   it's predominently with a hard contrasting colour (black,
silver, white) to tone down the purple impression. The very few cases
I've seen it in a big gradient were somehow less than optimal just
like our own attempt.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing :(

Sorry for the late answer, but the mail somehow didn't arrive until
today. Definitely not what Nodoka should like. I suspected that it's the
combination of Fedora 7's gtk and rawhide's gtk-nodoka-engine and indeed
it is. You can either update the gtk to rawhide version or rebuild the
gtk-nodoka-engine package.

I don't have the material under the eyes but IIRC it was purple->dark
blue with a white/blue element in the middle.

I think (but I may be wrong) that a purplish gradient with a bright
warm yellow/red element (such as sunset) is fine, as is a flat bright
purple element within some other totally different colour (like a
flowerbed against a white wall, blue sky or green vegetation). What
trips human distate is purple to another cool colour gradient (blue,
white, gray) without something to offset it. As I wrote before this
kind of colour does not happen in nature except in a sickness context.

I put together in gimp some different colour variants of the fourth

of Christmas - not a good thing in the middle of summer :-D... So I made
in inkscape two blue gradients (brigther and darker) and in gimp
desaturated the original version and combined it variously with the
gradients. The first one [1] I include only because I think there is
some feeling in it, but it's not good for default Fedora wallpaper...
Its too bright and has no trace of blue ;-) But it's somehow mystical...
The second [2] is light blue and third [3] is darker blue. The dark one

Máirín, do you want me to do a screenshots of your wallpapers together
with rawhide's default gnome theme? I don't run rawhide, but use the
nodoka theme which was recently made rawhide's default and also have
installed the rawhide's default icons (which are the same as in Fedora
7). However, IMHO, the wallpapers fit Echo icons better than the Mist
ones... Do you have any special request as to what app(s) should be used
on it? Note, however, that I have wide (16:10) screen so the wallpapers
will be cut...

I quite like the Infinitelines-overlay2 myself.  The
Inifinitelines-divide reminds me of Ubuntu.  The first overlap is nice
too just doesn't seem to have as much breadth and fullness as the 2nd.

Yeh, Nicolas' point is well-taken, I tried this:

http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/art/infinity/gimp-processed/3.png

So the blue is much darker and stronger and the purple area much more 
limited. (Other variants are in that dir too if you want to poke around, 
with the gimp XCF files... Martin's yellow version inspired me to play 
around in the gimp :) )

That would be great!

I do think the colors need to be adjusted a bit to fit the Mist icon

screen, it'll give us a feel for the color match. Maybe have a nautilus

3.png is absolutely awesome. I particularly like the soundwave consisting of
vertical lines of the base theme; it breaks the monotony and lifelessness of the
image of something non biological. It seems like a voice, and having that
orthogonally placed with the vertical lines is just absolutely gorgeous.

Great work everybody! :)

Good to hear. But, maybe it's a dumb question, but where can I get the
icons? I tried  

git clone git://git.fedoraproject.org/git/hosted/echo-icon-theme

and it pulled only a README file (and git repo settings). Browse source
on the Trac also shows only the README file.

Hi,

Nodoka was accepted into the fedorahosted. I did an initial sources
import and initial setting of the track page [1]. You can get the
sources with 

git clone git://git.fedoraproject.org/git/hosted/nodoka 

If you wish for write access please use ssh protocol instead
(ssh://git.fedoraproject.org/git/hosted/nodoka), go to your fedora
account and ask for approval in the gitnodoka group.

Thanks,
Martin

PS: does anyone know if trac allows some standard way of files inclusion
(i.e. not attachment)?

Re: Fedora Infinity Update

2007-08-13 Thread Michael Beckwith
Very good revision here. There are some very strong leading lines all over
the place that all converge towards where the ghosted lines join and lead
you up. The limited purple as well as the star field stuff help highlight
the area.

Sorry. I haven't time to extract the icon into the directory. It will
come shortly.

Purple is the Gentoo color. See http://gentoo.org including their icon 
theme.

Isn't it kind of silly to reject any single color because of its 
symbolic meaning to another distro? Even SLES has used blue as the 
primary color in some of its themes: 
http://jimmac.musichall.cz/themesets.php


The purple is an accent color, not the primary color. If we were to 
reject particular colors because of their symbolic meaning elsewhere, 
we'd have no colors left to work with.


Also, Gentoo doesn't have much to do with this part of the thread?

Not asking anyone to reject Purple. Just pointing out that it is already 
being used predominantly in another distribution and that to a extend 
invalidates the argument that people dont like purple as a color.

I see what Rahul is saying. He's not saying that we shouldn't use purple
cause Gentoo does, he's saying that because Gentoo does, we shouldn't shy
away from the color.

Do Note I was objecting to a very specific way to use purple

Using git command and trac

2007-08-13 Thread Luya Tshimbalanga
Following the instructions about using git, I did not see any change
into the browser from
https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/echo-icon-theme/browser even
though I have committed the change. Is there something wrong with Trac?
