ArtTeam Wiki ReDesign
All, IMO we pushed the envelope of wiki design and the result is an attractive and professional look. Thanks Nicu for your logo submission. It looks great! I also wanted to note the logo image is a hot link back to the ArtWork page. :) John ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
Open Palette Wiki
Nicu, Did I understand you to say the Open Palette articles could not be hosted on the wiki. If this is correct, what is the reason? John ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

EchoIconGuidelines: extension of shadows description
Since we can create shadows for icons now in inkscape (using blur effect) I think it would be good to extend shadows guidelines with some default values and default shadow creation. I think a basic values for a shadow made in inkscape could be: color - $2d2d2db9, amount of blur - from about 12 to about 20. Proposed guide is this: Steps: [1] Create an basic shadow shape to start with (for action icons mostly ellipse is good) [2] Extend the shape to fit better to the icon [3] Add gradient if wanted (in the example I used linear gradient with those colors: $2d2d2da0 - 2d2d2db9 - 2d2d2d32) [4] Apply blur effect (in the example I set 12,4) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Just to mention that we have two pages that serve the same purpose: * Artwork/ThemingOverview * Artwork/ReleaseGraphics I tried to fix this a while ago; ThemingOverview is a much older page so I took the stuff from ReleaseGraphics and integrated it with the information in ThemingOverview and set up a redirect. Unfortunately, not everyone agreed that it was a bad idea to have duplicate pages, and the ReleaseGraphics page was re-created. I give up, and I leave this to someone else to cleanup, citing the fact that ThemingOverview was the original page and since it's older more things probably link to it. ~m ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Actually, AGO does have RSS feeds... but it's a very hidden feature. I don't even remember the urls to get to them, you might want to ask thos (he clued me on it ;) ), but it can definitely do RSS right now. It's definitely a more moderated solution (thus more hands on) than some of the other things we've been discussing.

Oh man. So I was thinking, hmm, maybe we could write a python script that would modify the deviantart RSS feed to add the thumbnails, but looking at the thumbnail URLs there isn't a way to do that from the guid. *However* I did find this: http://www.microugly.com/page/blogs/da-faves-on-your-site/ Seems hacky though, if dA changes things around it would break. Although this article does mention that dA 'pasties' include thumbnails if you have a paid account... hmm - for hosting: not everybody has his own hosting solution, is willing to pay for one and all free services are less then perfect. So for those in heed a gallery or something provided by Fedora could be very useful. - for aggregating only: if we host content, then we probably will want to police it, so only aggregation will provide more freedom to the contributors. This is an interesting observation. I don't see why we couldn't do both. :) I set up a page to try to capture all this discussion: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/Communication As noted on the page from the discussions we had on the infrastructure list, it seems that to move forward, we need to: * Formally define our requirements * File an RFR (request for resources) with the infrastructure team once we work out our requirements. I took a quick stab at a requirements list: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/Communication#head-d5fb254365e4065b55a41bf5adabfe5681b97f55 What do you think? Am I missing anything? Disagree with the priority of any of the items? It's on the wiki, so feel free to discuss and modify. :) It may just be that we discuss this with the Infrastructure Team and find out they might not have time for a while, so we stick with say DeviantArt or Flickr and just have a planet feed of our artwork for now, and later on the Infrastructure Team might help us build out what we need. Or maybe they'd have time now. So I think moving forward we'll either end up in one of those two scenarios. If we end up in the first one though we'll need to decide what system we want to go with in the meantime. ~m ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

John, can you move these pages to use the existing Artwork name (without the capital W)? Right now, it looks like the original Artwork page has simply been disintegrated, and any contributors trying to reach that page are dumped to the no such page page. Any other agreeable scheme that you guys like which keeps all the existing links working within reason is fine, too. I went ahead and did this, so all the ArtWork pages now redirect to their Artwork counterparts. Hope this is OK John. We have so many pages that still used Artwork it seemed kind of overwhelming to change them all over so I just moved the 3 or 4 that were ArtWork. :) ~m ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
