Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] applications-internet
Maybe try the land without the lat/long grid? The third looks unecessarily busy, but the second with the glossy gradient doesn't say Internet to me. I think the first is the way to go if the grid was improved. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Your parallels are good, but your meridians don't look right, for example the second and third meridian from the left appear parallel in the southern hemisphere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereographic_projection Some of the maths here may be of use to you, is it possible to code that kind of thing with svg? -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

One could use an UVSphere in Blender as template. If you want to try that and need help. ask me off-list. I wonder if we should show any landmasses at all, as half of the world can't be shown and residents of the respective countries might not like that. So how about a more abstract globe, with a grid that gives an impression of light/electricity? -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

For example, Greenland's location and size make me do a double take. I think Thorsten's idea of an 'agnostic' globe might be easier and better from a technical and PR point of view. Again, it's a really good idea and you've made fantastic contributions so keep it up! -- David -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
