Re: Fedora 11 countdown banner (artwork team release)
Hi Ricky, By the way, would it be possible to make an updated version of the 1 day banner? Right now, it says 1 days, and where it should be 1 day. The same might be true for the Italian one. sorry for the mistake, today afternoon I'll re-upload corrected version for both languages. I'm about to send the an email to fedora-trans-list about getting more translations for the countdown. Any idea who I can refer translators to if they need help work the graphics work and who they should send their translated SVGs to in order to be generated? You can give my contact (hydr...@gmail.com) for those they need some assistance about banner creation.

Hi gianluca, [I'm novastorm ;-)] Today I'll correct the banner...do you have some ideas for italian translation? Feel free to contact me if you need some help. You can also modify banner source by yourself if you want. -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list -- Paolo Leoni ~ http://pleoni.altervista.org -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list

The source SVG is at http://fedoraproject.org/static/images/counter/en/deepsky-fedora11-countdown-banner_en.svg You may need to install the mgopen-fonts package to see the fonts properly. I'm not totally who to send these to generate the PNGs, but you can send the translated SVGs for now. Please send two SVGs: One with the translation for the singular arriving in 1 day and one for the plural arriving in XX days I'll try to get somebody from the art team to send some more specific instructions and to help out with the this is possible. It's very ugly at least for Persian and Balochi. I've made a test for its translation but outcome is too bad :D. Blurs makes it unclear.

I've made a test for its translation but outcome is too bad :D. Blurs makes it unclear. Looking at the SVG, Paolo, I think it can be made more friendly for translations (sorry for not checking this earlier), something like putting all the text to be translated outside the canvas and use clones... is not a good idea to have the text to be translated twice, one time as normal text and another time as a halo and everything under a complex structure of groups. Keep in mind that our translators are not necessary Inkscape power-users. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list
