Re: [Design-team] F12 Final wallpaper polish
I think the darkened corners give a depth to the wallpaper, I think it's good that way, maybe decrease the amount of rounds (this is a small detail), but it's a great job. 2009/10/27 Kris Thomsen lakris...@gmail.com Hi Mairin, Your new ones (80 and 82) are very, very nice - but I don't like the dark blue spot in the lower corners - just look unfinished compared to the rest of the wallpaper.

I have to admit that this background is much more fresh and happier than mosaic (with rainy autumn weather here in Czech republic). As Martin pointed out, try to reduce bokeh a little. Maybe there's missing Fedora connection but I'm not fan of theme that has to match name or even Fedora, so for me it's ok. I know, it was/is full of emotions, I didn't intend to offend you, I'm really sorry, I think all of you are doing wonderful work, we ALL want best Fedora release, code, artwork, well tested. I'm probably (depends on Visa, oh, it's big complication, lot of forms, paperwork, I can spend it working on Fedora!) going to FUDCon 2009 in Toronto. Could we meet?

Re: [Design-team] Fedora Wallpaper Extra
+1 to the blue. really good! 2009/9/28 angella inzinga ainzi...@gmail.com I feel the pink iteration of the wallpaper is more for 'tweenies' - kids about 12-13 years old. But every time you stick pink/cartoonish under my nose, that's my general attitude. The blue one is nice and rich, very deep. So, +1 for blue. As far as sexism in female geared marketing, yes, its really hard when every thing you look at is pink, (there are even protein supplements geared towards women- it's amazingly sad). But I've always looked at it as being more offensive than the simplistic reduction of guy advertising you see every time some deodorant body spray comes out with a new ad campaign.

Re: [Design-team] mosaico perspective mockups
I think this proposal is very simple since the original file, is in the idea and concept, but is very simple wallpaper for the distribution.

At the same time, I don't really care about the GIMP transformation, so I would forget about that. Indeed, I like it a lot too so +1 for wallpaper-mosaico6b_mo, 6c_mo I think is too much blurry. I like the concept behind 6c the most, but I agree it's too much blurry. Best looking are IMHO 6b and 6. I'd also suggest deviating from the tiled style. I like 6c the best too, I dont think the overblurrynes is a problem, but reather that some dark blue tiles have a sharp edge sitting on blurry backgrounds. That confuses my eyesso to how far they are. I think just making the dark blue tiles as blurry would fix that.

' of Kanagawa or even religious issues that I read here on the list. Most of the art work we've done as a team has been interpreted in ways I think were never intended (and sometimes I think interpreted in crazily unexpected ways), even works that had no strong concept underlying them. I think that's why it's important to seek out critique, for us to discuss how the artwork is interpreted by others and use that feedback to tweak the design to send the message we really wanted to send with it (or at least, avoid a message we know we do not want to send about Fedora! :) ) I can give you example after example of this - how the Fedora 8 infinity lines look like the Atari logo, how a starburst in one person's proposal a while back reminded people of the oppression of the Japanese empire during WWII, the sulphur looking like poo (well it did and I'm glad we dropped it :)), there were a few pieces that triggered a very strong religious interpretation from some folks I don't remember the specifics of. If we look, all the arts have a concept that will send anything (bad or good). And when we're working with many users it gives more room for numerous interpretations, saying that this or that refers to any matter religious, political or any other subject that generates some kind of flame. I think it's important to get an idea of how works will be interpreted by Fedora users because they are our ultimate consumers. Even if we don't agree with the interpretation or don't think their reaction makes sense, we do need to acknowledge it. It's our choice to live with people interpreting it that way or if we want to adjust the work to change the interpretation. I based the name and made an explicit reference to the code, pasting other elements (such as the engraving of Doré) to give an air of superiority to the statue and a texture of concrete to harmonize the art. Different from when I proposed an art involving the Tower of Constantine that was mentioned subjectively applied with some effects which referred the technology. I know that there is no common consensus in the use of the Statue of art, perhaps, because I do not follow the original idea was to do something with the theme mosaic, using a collage of photos may look a little démodé but for me is I can work and provide, as I have the gift of making illustrations. The arguments that I have to use this art are little because I am thinking more artistically than functionally, and even think that artistically I said here that art is subjective and is easy to conceptualize a work of art or art done for a distribution. These are my thoughts and I believe that the decision taken by this team will be better for everyone. I'm having a little trouble understanding your meaning here, probably because of language issues, but I really really hope I haven't discouraged you at all, like many people have said, it is a really beautiful wallpaper. I would just like to see it pushed a little bit more conceptually. Art is definitely subjective, but so is any communication. I think maybe in art maybe you cannot control people's taste and whether or not something really appeals to someone in a deep way, but as a form of communication you do have some control over the message that it sends irregardless if someone subjectively likes it or not. I think my arguments end up here, and as I told the Desing Team know what is best. ~m ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team -- Jayme Ayres www.jaymeayres.com www.projetofedora.org www.twitter.com/jaymeayres http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JaymeAyres ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
