Re: Update moon cube theme
Mola Pahnadayan wrote: Moon : Add background : /http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F8theme-moon I like this better than the initial image, it introduce new elements (the tree, the fence) and it avoid the water-reflection cliché. I am sure some will complain about its darkness, but I like darkness, and maybe we will have a simpler and lighter alternative right along. A couple of suggestions for improvement: - the white pixels on the background are stars? If so, there are too many of them (and should not be seen over the moon). If they are rain, they are too round and don't look like rain. They look to me much like snow, which foes not fit the rest of the image at all; - the white fedora logo over the black ground provide a very strong contrast, how about dropping the logo? ar at least de-emphasize it *a lot* (do it as a translucent watermark?) Cubes : Add background : /http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/F8Themes/FloatingCubes/ Wow! This is a completely different take! Unfortunately, I don't think it is good as a default wallpaper, it too contrasting, the big white 8 over the dark background will distract your attention. I like very muck your cubes and their transparency. But overall, I'm inclined more towards Martin's initial take, which is much softer. On a sideline: - IIRC, we don't want release numbers inside the artwork, that would be locking and would not make sense for someone to use the picture in a future release even if he like the graphics; - this is obvious and I think you already know you used a wrong font -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
[Fedora Mascot] What's the current status?
Hi, I see the Mascot page [1] is little outdated - Last edit in the April... Was actually any Mascot selected for promoting Fedora or the development died out? I'm just pinging how's it going, as I am not quite sure about the status. Also I'd like to add my two cents as to which I would like to see as our mascot. I really like the parrot (try 6)[2]. I somehow feel the fedora in him... I would pick the one without T-shirt (or maybe with the t-shirt but without the fedora logo). Also the aliens [3] from try 4 are also very nice and representative, IMHO.

NodokaTheme in F8
Hi, I took an action item at the FESCo meeting today to check with the Art team to make sure this feature compliments the work you have going on for F8 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/Features/NodokaTheme If there are any strong reasons why this feature should not be approved for F8, please add comments to the bottom of http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/Features/NodokaTheme by 2007-07-23. Thank you, John ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

The response from the team to the initiative was pretty low, so we did not pursued it harder. Personally I intended at some point to revive the interest with a blog post but was busy with other thing and forgot about that. Maybe I'll blog about it later today... Idle status at the moment. Given the time constraint for Fedora 8. having mascot is not really a high priority. But the mascot is not tied with the release in any way, the graphics is not planned to be included in the downloadable bits, so we can release it when is ready. Alignment of some kind with the release schedule may be nice just from a marketing point of view, a publicity stunt. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
