My proposal is to draw a line and go as a default with: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:Constantine_Perspective_Mosaico.svg Meaning we start doing splashes based on it. We are late in the process and missed enough deadlines, so we can't afford delaying more.

Re: [Design-team] F12 Wallpaper 9-16-09 0000 UTC
Hello ! I don't be rude but where is "the depth" ? Mosaic seems cut and pasted on a background On the other hand, the mosaic is better finished . The surfaces of water is not good .

I think what this design needs is slightly better shaping of the tiles, colour change towards the perspective mosaico design we are using now and figuring out its transition to some background. Just placing the already prepared SVG against almost random background does not seem to work very well...

[Design-team] Development of DIY Folding Media Sleeve
Greetings Design Team, I would like to work with a designer to develop a one page, color, printable 8.5x11 page that can be printed, folded and used to identify and protect a downloaded and burned CD or DVD copy of Fedora. This would be useful when pressed media is either unavailable or inaccessible for any number of reasons. The audience I would like write for and target is "family informal tech support providers." Quite a bit of useful printed information can be provided about Linux, Fedora and support resources on the sleeve along with check boxes or spaces to write in what version is contained inside the sleeve. One comparable sample comes from Ubuntu though I think a better folding method can be used. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/CDSleeves?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=nbussett2.pdf Larry Cafiero and I think this would be very useful but I am still struggling to find the time to develop it myself and I didn't want to wait any longer to see if anyone else is able and willing to help. I look forward to speaking with someone about this.

And I think this particular graphic is good. +1 There are other Fedora projects/teams totally breaking deadlines and development freezes so don't worry... Artwork team did great job, thanks! But if we really want high grade software we should together work on following deadlines and freezes.

I agree with Martin and Cata. There is no depth and generally not very good-looking.

We have a size limit on attachments, a better idea is to upload them somewhere, for example on your fedorapeople.org account, and post a link. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
