Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] applications-science (orange vs. green)
This case is very simple, if you want to maintain the human style, seen in the rest of the icon set, has to be orange, Otherwise, wear green. Personally I am inclined to orange. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Let's not get /too/ carried away here. While I do see what you mean remember the size at which these are going to be used. Even if they pop up somewhere at the default 48px I *still* think that you'll miss this difference between the 2 versions. Now, this is not to say I won't upload a revision if anyone would like to make it but for now I will upload Sebastien's current revision. -Cory K. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

I am having trouble explaining what I perceive as the difference between Sebastian's green and the modification by Milan's, but the I definitely agree with Yann's conclusion that Milan's looks more like real fluid. The way the outline of the meniscus looks, the way that some light plays into the rear of the bottle a little bit, the softening of the white overlay, the variety of shades used ranging from light yellows to dark greens; the effect of Milan's fluid is much more appealing than the original. For what it's worth, I loved the original orange colors. There is very little green in the set, and I believe that there is much to say for color continuity. The red color still says "science" in a way that's less comic-book and cliché, as well as fitting better with the rest of the icon set. Please reconsider the fluid color! -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Actually, we often cover those with a specialized type of plastic wrap called parafilm which is waxy and elastic so that when we stretch it tight over the top, it contracts and forms an airtight seal around the top. It is much easier to put on and take off than corks, less expensive to replace, lower risk of contamination... so it's pretty much industry standard these days. So, if you want to make it say "science", you could definitely show the top of the bottle covered in parafilm.
