Good afternoon, a quick intro and then the real reason I'm here. I'm Karlie Robinson, a Fedora Ambassador and most recently a member of the Fedora OLPC SIG. This is my first time requesting artwork, so please don't hesitate to email for clarification. After all, I think I need images to get the idea across so words are bound to fail me. I've added a request on the Document Illustration Services page - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/DocIllustrationService#Request_list I need an image or series of images illustrating how to insert a SD card into the OLPC XO. This will be used for instructions on how to load F10 onto the XO. I will also be using these to print instruction cards at the request of OLPC for SD cards that will be sold along side the XO at the Give One Get One at Amazon.com. So black and white/gray scale version would be preferred. Perhaps a line drawing? We need to illustrate how to access the SD slot by turning the monitor counter clockwise and then inserting the card into the slot.

there is a request in the design queue for a default logo for projects on fedora hosted that do not have a logo. it appears that there is now a default logo on fedora hosted (based on a banner that mo did a while back i think...) so can i close this request, and move it to the archives? cheers, ryanlerch [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

The idea behind it is that before computers there were typewriters and presses. They used little metal letters which when covered with ink/carbon they left an impression on the paper. So I tired to recreate that with Inkscape. Of course they aren't a full representation of the metal-type (something like Linotype), but close enough (it's hard to recreate metal with Inkscape). While the ultimate decision of taking or rejecting the banner stands with the people on the Fonts SIG, I can say it looks like a good start for me (but I think you have some work to do). I used MgOpen Modata for all fonts. The first letters are latin but used in many, many alphabets. The other ones are from the Malayalam alphabet (Why? Because I think they are one of the most stylish letters ever written!). I do not know their meaning or anything, but they look very good. Hope you like it and please do not be shy to beat me up if you don't like it (make sure you say why you don't like it). Look at the page where the banner will be used: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Fonts_SIG - your background color does not match (and does not match the rest of the banners on our wiki). Also look at other banners, like this one: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork Add a shadow at the text bottom, to match our general style. The reflection is wrong, it is a transparent gradient, bu the orientation should be inverse, you want more opacity near the start (top) and decreasing (to complete transparency at the extremity). -- 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-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Re: Fedora 9.0 CD/DVD
I have taken into consideration the ideas / suggestions discussed eariler in this threasd and an updated version of the art is on the wiki: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/MediaArt/F9 I chose x86_64 Live CD as the sample variation because it was the longest string. feel free to comment, critique and enhance these works... cheers, ryanlerch On Sat, Apr 19, 2008 at 7:22 AM, Max Spevack [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How many variations of the CD / DVD are there going to be?

Re: fedora LiveUSB: My little design
On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 5:13 AM, Máirín Duffy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I don't believe this design will work at small sizes such as 32x32 and 24x24 where it is likely to be used. I also don't think we can use the official USB logo like that. If you are using inkscape to design this logo, try to use the Icon Preview (view icon preview) This will give you a display of what the PNG will look at in smaller sizes, so you can tweak the drawing to work better as an icon. hope this helps, ryanlerch ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
Re: How do you edit .SVG?
When getting started with inkscape, make sure you check out the tutorials that come bundled with it (available in the help menu...) Other inkscape great resources are: tav's inkscape book: http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/index.php the inkscape quick guide my microugly http://www.microugly.com/inkscape-quickguide/ the art team's own, nicu and his howto section: http://howto.nicubunu.ro/ i also run a blog that tries to post all the great inkscape tutorials from all over: http://inkscapetutorials.wordpress.com/ hope this helps, ryanlerch On Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 7:38 AM, Grady Laksmono [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks all :) - Grady 2008/4/20 Martin Sourada [EMAIL PROTECTED]: On Sun, 2008-04-20 at 14:32 -0700, Grady Laksmono wrote: Hi all~ I'm not an artists, just wondering on what software do you use to edit .SVG files..?

2008/4/17 Paul W. Frields [EMAIL PROTECTED]: This has continually been painful for every release. Granted, for Fedora 10 the design schedule may work out as an improvement, but what about: * removing the Werewolf from the F8 design for the disc itself, updating any dates or numbers as required * A background-derived cover sleeve, similarly updating names * Adding the URL to the back cover Where can i get the sources (SVG if they exist) of these images?

Re: FedoraEvents - Artwork/DesignService
that's awesome... what font(s) are used for the text on these banners? i might make up a default template with clones and such, allowing for easy creation of these banners... On the subject of the banner itself, i like the second one better (with the squares instead of the written date...) IMO, it still portrays the Event / Date metaphor effectively. The only other ideas i had for an image for this banner were involving party items like a foamy beer or a martini, which could also protray an Event. However i think the date / calendar image is a much better way to go cheers, ryanlerch 2008/4/16 María Leandro [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I didn't too :S that's why I made my own sgv. 2008/4/16, ryan lerch [EMAIL PROTECTED]: is there an SVG template or a page wiki with the dimensions, guidelines etc for these banners? i searched for it yesterday, but could not find it. cheers, ryanlerch On Wed, Apr 16, 2008 at 1:57 AM, Nicu Buculei [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: María Leandro wrote: yup... you're right... not even me use English as a native language.
