  What's clip mean?
 
 My idea was to get a sense of speed (with the very fast turning Ubuntu
 logo wheel) and associate it with the fast boot times of the latest
 version of Ubuntu. The counter counts 10 seconds which is the time
 that takes Lucid Lynx to boot...

The boot speed you showed is not consistent with mine, now that I have
the amount of programs I need on Ubuntu my boot speed has been raised
to about a minute, it might also be the general speed of my computer.
If you really want to show how quickly Ubuntu boots up then you need
to do a side-by-side comparison turning on the same computer with
windows and Ubuntu. I'm not sure how to record a booting sequence but
I'm sure there are ways it can be done.

2010-07-16 Thread Mr. Andrzejak
Nathan,

Have you done a completely new fresh install of Lucid? My boot times were
pretty decent after an upgrade, but I noticed big improvements after I had
backed up my data and did a clean fresh install of 10.04. I dont know if Im
at a 10 second boot time, but I think Im in the 15-20 seconds boot time
without actually timing it.

Dave

Great stuff.  I think it's amazing and proves that our community can produce 
excellent results! I hope it inspires others to contribute to the Ubuntu Free 
Culture Showcase as well.

So far the the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase has received the following 
submissions:

http://www.flickr.com/groups/ubuntu-artwork/
has ~900 new photos submitted so far. We received around 1,500 photos for both 
the Lucid and Karmic releases. That means we've still got quite a ways to go 
before Maverick so keep submitting photos!

http://soundcloud.com/groups/ubuntu-free-culture-showcase
has 7 new tracks. This is the first time we've done sound :-) I encourage 
community members to submit their tracks, the more the merrier :-)

http://ubuntu-artists.deviantart.com/gallery/25667683
has 4 illustration submissions. Here's the chance to show off your vectors.

http://vimeo.com/groups/ubuntufreecultureshowcase/videos
has 2 video submissions. Goce's video was the first and originated from this 
list - I'm happy he agreed to my suggestion to add it to the vimeo group -  
the new HD version  is even better!

The video category is probably the most open of all. There are no rules, no 
expectations other than greatness :-) Show us what you can do.

Any questions/problems can be easily answered/solved. Just ask :-)

[ubuntu-art] How fast does your PC boot? - promotional video ad for Ubuntu

2010-07-05 Thread Goce Mitevski
Hi everyone,

Here is a promotional video ad I created for Ubuntu and its boot speed.

http://vimeo.com/13084551

I think that video ads can really help popularize Ubuntu. I'm planing
to create a HD version of this ad soon, and make it more suitable for
actual broadcasting.

I hope you like it.

Cheers,
Goce
