Re: [OSGeoLive] #2090: Artwork 12.0

2018-08-08 Thread Cameron Shorter 

Thanks Benoit,

I've copied your image to 
https://www.dropbox.com/home/OSGeoLiveBackground so others can see it.


I like what you have done replacing the basemap. I'd be inclined to make 
the image slightly darker, as I think we need to make sure the icons on 
the desktop can still stand out against the background. We could partly 
achieve this by mirroring the shadow image of tree and giraffes.


Can you please share the source gimp file with Astrid and me.

Astrid, thanks for your suggestions too. The "head of a giraffe" looks 
good (I prefer the head over the blue sea background), but I think the 
shadow version with the tree is better, maybe starting with Benoit's 
version. I also think that the OSM background should be darkened so that 
icons will stand out better against the background.

Hi Cameron,

I like what you propose and the image with giraffes you found.
I tried OSM at another zoom level (z16 I think), playing with your
proposal and gimp, trying to resize and align somehow the image and
the map.
Please find an attempt attached, if you like to experiment in the same
direction.

Best regards

Benoit

Hi OSGeo Live people,

There are already good suggestions.

If you need more, I would propose:

- using OSM data of Dar, but not the OSM base rendering
- maybe another existing rendering (1 example:
https://opentopomap.org/#map=15/-6.81422/39.30086 [3])
- some examples of real map here: http://ramanihuria.org/data/ [4]
- maybe asking a skilled QGIS user to render a map

- if you want to compose an image, you could go with pictures of
people
- I do not like the idea of animals
- only, why not the national animal, the giraffe

All the best

Comment (by pka):

 I would volunteer for setting up t-rex ;-)

 Space requirements will be minimal (13MB + docs).

 I'm currently working on a MVT benchmark which uses a Natural Earth
 dataset (https://github.com/pka/mvt-benchmark). I will motivate and help
 the Geoserver, Mapserver and Tegola teams to implement this benchmark at
 FOSSG4G in Dar. This could also be a good OSGeo-Live tutorial for all
 these servers!
