Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] start-here ... Submission
Many thanks up to Thorsten Wilms and his good tips :) Finally followed nearly all those tips. :) You have many knowledge about this thematic, really. Like your works very much. Hope they will allows you change a little bit the colour-palette :D Keep up your good works ... @ Cory K. you was right. Three colours ... no more :) I can use in 32x32, 24x24 and (22x22) a good trick for make it more button-like ... better said ... "sunken in the panel". 16x16 maybe with a outline ...

Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] start-here ... (Submission)
SVG-file error fixed :) ... and the finish touch given! @ Cory K.: Yes. I took the original Logo, corrected the errors of sizes + positions and took the original colours + set them brighter and darker for get more harmony. Of course, you can download the SVG-file from the Submissons-Page and recolouring it for your gust. :) ! The Highlights need to be adjusted with the background-colour ;) ! If the colour-problem (-thema) is solved I will start with scaling ...

I over-worked the start-here-Icon completely. For checking it I submitted all here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/BreatheIconSet/Submissions I think it's looking finally very well. But if somebody think it needs here and there a retouch or correction?!?? ... so he can feel free and put his hands over my svg-file. ;) One problem still I have ... If I click on the SVG-Preview I get some black fields on the SVG-icon. How to fix it?

In this case the white highlights. The red circle is shaded like it receives strong white light in a dark environment (I can almost imagine the halo effect). This doesn't fit with the rest of it and would be a bad choice as it doesn't bring out the colors. I suggest you study how materials show variations in tone depending on much light they receive. For red you might have to make the brightest parts slightly orange. -- 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

Honestly my only one handicap I have are > colors. The colours are too soft, boosting the reds and yellows would probably be a good start. I did a quick example in Gimp: http://imgur.com/2ZDVQ I also coloured the bottom "arms" red, something you forgot(?)

I don't like the colors. They aren't official. Look at it against the folder for instance.
