[Design-team] f13 rockets simple sketch
Hi, I had this idea in my head all week; I did a very simple sketch and posted it to the f13 artwork wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:F13-concept-rocketlines.png It's a really rough sketch. The concept is really along the lines of what all of our sketches have, I think. But the visual style I'd want to go for is like this Modest Mouse album: http://www.kolnstyle.com/lbmcvrz/Modest%20Mouse-GNFPQLBN.jpg I think it would be cool for the trails of the rockets to have an organic shape to them like they're flower stems or something. Maybe a kooky idea, just something that's been in my head this week. ~m ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team

I love where that idea is going. I think you could make the rocket trails do something like a DNA strand or something like that would be cool. I also like the kind of one sidedness of the background. --pcon 2010/1/14 Máirín Duffy mai...@linuxgrrl.com: Hi, I had this idea in my head all week; I did a very simple sketch and posted it to the f13 artwork wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:F13-concept-rocketlines.png It's a really rough sketch.

I saw this and immediately thought whoa, rising rockets with trails would make an awesome graphical boot. I don't know how http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBheUFaRnr8 (the F10 boot animation, solar) was done or what it would take to get that animated (and whether it'd be worth it) but it would be pretty sweet. --Mel ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team

The desktop background works best which does not demand a lot of attention. I'd much rather see something on the Fedora desktop *inspired* by the release name than being a direct, verbal interpretation. That inspiration aspect can keep the background more figurative, subtle, and less likely to clash with graphical objects like icons and windows. -- Paul W.

We put all ideas we have then we will work on their best aspects. So far, common elements on most concepts are rockets, space and light traills. - -- Luya Tshimbalanga Graphic Web Designer E: l...@fedoraproject.org W: http://www.thefinalzone.net -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAktPZQAACgkQaS6HaNQHFTkvbACfbuYZquryRVNz1mw6vaiDMZVV 0WcAn3RCuV9RDXlVrwhvP80OweRRKsK4 =X1jv -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team

Re: [Design-team] f13 rockets simple sketch
Are there any notes on how to hack Plymouth animations, it would be interesting to try to put something together. Ideally I suppose there could be a common bit of software that could be part of a screensaver or part of a boot animation / animated login splash screen. For rocket imagery I really like some of the shots from Gattaca, where the rocket flight was an image associated with the aspirations of the protagonist. The rockets were computer generated and usually appeared behind some stark geometric architecture or simple coloured backgrounds. -Cam ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
