Depending on the effects being used and desired outcome, you might want to make the selection fuzzy (Gaussian filter), or similar with the layer, so the effect blends in around it. - - Karsten, also just an amateur dabbler - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade.^\ CentOS Doer of Stuff http://TheOpenSourceWay.org\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlanz0kACgkQ2ZIOBq0ODEEHRwCgiLdfk0CPAGvcXmJReDSXrHFs OUEAn0RZovZsVyjh0G3n7JNLP1NDKasD =1xIT -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org
[Design-team] Font suggestion for a title
Now with the correct recipient address ... -Original Message- From: Karsten Wade [kw...@redhat.com] Received: Wednesday, 27 Apr 2011, 10:04am To: des...@lists.fedoraproject.org CC: t...@lists.fedorahosted.org Subject: Font suggestion for a title ---BeginMessage--- Hi: I have a font geek/design question that is a bit outside of the regular Fedora purview. I'm looking for a good titling font to replace Interstate. Here's the whole story. We have this actively written handbook that captures the principles, implementation methods, and some good stories about applying the open source way beyond just software: http://TheOpenSourceway.org An important goal of that project is that the book contents are not only freely licensed (CC BY SA 3.0) but the entirety of every tool and design used is equally free. A few months ago I realized that the site background was made using a non-free font (Interstate). Since I had otherwise made sure the Red Hat Design team who helped us with styling provided sources, I was able to fix the non-free state but at the cost of a nice titling font: http://iquaid.org/2011/02/19/banner-mistake-for-the-open-source-way-website/ Ian Weller reminded me today that the Liberation Sans I used just didn't carry the visual weight of the Interstate. I also realized that the favicon.ico was still Interstate, so that needs fixing ASAP. This time though, I'd like to take the time to get the design right. (It's probably worth it to make the change to Lib Sans just get the freedom status correct, but I don't want to let ugly sit for long.) Any suggestions? If it helps, here are the sources for the background/logotype and favicon: https://fedorahosted.org/tosw/browser/website/media/images Suggestions, patches, etc. welcome. Thx - Karsten ---End Message--- ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
