Daily builds do not have the greybird theme yet. I will let you know on
this list when the theme is available on both the live cd and
installations from the daily builds.

What's wrong with them? The windows don't fit into the small ones, but 
there is no way around that.


You could of course make a comparison based on your own setup.

That xrandr script doesn't work here and I'm not willing to switch 
driver, so no development in that direction. Thanks for digging it out, 
though :)

It's a good question as to when the design/theme/context is finalized, I guess 
shortly before the freeze ;)
No, seriously, we're trying to get the theme tested by a wider audience as part 
of Natty alpha2 and will maybe revise a few points if there are strong concerns.

So all in all it's as final as alpha2 can be. But I can poke you when I'm sure 
it's finalized.

Simon

Those contexts don't look like it's the real thing, especially the
low-resolution ones.
If that contexts are present in some LiveCD image or can be installed on
one, I can make all the needed *real* screenshots and make the contexts for
resolutions up to 2560x1600 with xrandr.
But I'm not laborious enough to do it several times for the same derivative,
so if the context is not finalized yet, poke me when it's finalized.

Other than Ubuntu other derivatives have not been blogged about there,

Re: [ubuntu-art] Xubuntu Usplash anyone?

2006-09-29 Thread Viper550
So, mine just has a different progress bar and a smaller spotlight? What 
a coincidence that what I made last Sunday ended up being similar to 
what would soon become the official theme (when I did it, it was still 
0.10, the "Kubuntu Crossout" design)! I might wanna make something with 
a progress bar similar to what Clearlooks 2 (the new default theme on 
Xubuntu, w00t!) has. I just don't think something with a glossy progress 
bar makes sense if the actual theme barely has any gloss in it at all 
(except for the window border). I also might make a similar design for 
Ubuntu too!

Actually if you could backburner this and instead provide
more unpolished options, I believe it would be more 
productive.

Remember, let's try to keep at 'proposing'.


Separate colour palette, backing forms, and compositional
elements into their respective categories.

It makes it easier to 'mix and match' directions.

To be honest, the 1st seems a bit too distracting with the "blinking"
circles.

I like the Dapper mouse-in-wheel splash screen, that makes me grin every
time I see it.

How about updating that for Edgy, with a glossy wheel/Ubuntu logo or
something?




I personally, think that xubuntu needs a splash update that brings it

I prefer the 2nd (logo and letters look really cool), but wonder how
something in between - similar to the 2nd splash but using the 1st
background - would look...


I second this opinion. Progress bar is more intuitive, more telling
and more expected by user than blinking circles.

What I like about v3 in comparison to v1 and v2 is the way it looks  
as if the objects are cut out of blue and gray glass as opposed to  
the much more opaque chromed blue pieces in the first two.


Transparency can  be a nice quality, especially if it's rather subtle.

Can you do a quick tutorial so we can make A) an Ubuntu one and B)some
other stuff in a similar style?




Thanks for the comment to everyone; as soon as I get home, I am going
to attach the photoshop file so that everyone can take a look at it.

Anyway, I agree with Mark on the v3 logo. *Really* classy! Far better 
than the other xubuntu logo proposals there, which remind me very much 
of mercury, instead of of brushed steel or something.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/XubuntuEdgy/Proposals

It's on the same page, and that V3 logo is AWESOME! Make one for Ubuntu, 
Kubuntu, and Edubuntu too and we'll be so happy!

p.s. I was dissapointed by the GTK theme on Edubuntu Dapper, it made it 
look more like Chirstmasbuntu! I will be making a new Ubuntulooks theme 
that hopefully improves on that monstrosity!

Thank you immensely for taking the time to document your
work jmak!

It should go without saying that the works are unfinished -- in
fact -- it is far superior to have loose mock ups during a development
phase such as this.

Let's hope we manage to stimulate some more contributions on
the Proposal side.


Brief notes:
 * Chrome look is wonderful.  Mouse feels the need to
   homogenize to the look perhaps?  Chrome mouse tweak?
   Cleave from solid black mouse?  Ideas?
 * Logo version two offers subtle contrasts which help
   to elevate its appearance.  Very appealing.
 * Logon composition is centre punched.  Perhaps work towards
   a more classical distribution considering the weight
   of the rendered logon panel.
 * Is there a way to integrate the lovely chrome look with
   the wallpaper in some way to create a seamless feel?


Great work jmak!

Thanks again for taking the time.  If you wouldn't mind,
I am quite sure that your work would be welcome under the
"Artwork" section of the wiki for newcomers to examine.
Renaming the page is relatively painless, and the current
template for the artwork area shows subpages automatically.
The /Artwork/Incoming area has a good starting point if you
would like to establish an EdgyXubuntuProposals area?

Sincerely,
Troy

Looks really good, (second one looks best) but i have to note one
inconsistency: the shadows. The shadow on the logo is heading left,
while the shadow on the login "box" is heading right.

The logo has been given a chrome treatment to make it more lively; the
background of the login screen uses flat colors in order to keep the
file size down, which is a basic requirement for xubuntu.

Please note that these artworks are still a work in progress.

I am also thinking about using only the logo in the greeter and get

My concept is that the 3 people in the logo are

I hope you will consider my design.
I am sending the  .PSD raw files in a .rar archive so

Ubuntu usplash voting is done via e-mail. And you should probably vote

It's unfortunate how disorganized this whole process has been.

A) No central repository.
B) No guidelines.
C) No notion of what platforms to design for (Edu, X, K, etc)

Hopefully the leadership will organize some sort of strategy
to overcome this next time.
