I made a few shots that could work well as complementary pictures to the
more abstracto-figurative pictures Geirdal made for the categories.

I realize they might not be perfect, but maybe you like the idea?

I tried to make one for each category, but i think they all end up
having a lot of "audio focus" maybe it is a good thing? You tell me. One
sure thing is that the "graphic workflow" one, needs a different
on-screen content :D (too "cute, wtf, kindergarten")

The more i look at Geirdal pictures, the better i like these:

http://geirdal.is/images/studio/audio_x.png
http://geirdal.is/images/studio/graphic_03.png
http://geirdal.is/images/studio/video_x.png

If they are used without the pictograms, like they were intended: as
backgrounds for text and screenshots, i think they are perfect! They
refer to analogue times with very contemporary elements. I think it
emulates what we are quite well: /linux for creative humans/ a digital
product made by analogue robots ;) And they are quiet and noisy at the
same time, which i find to be a really poetic contrast.

I think this one is really beautyfull but it should be used without the
logos for the general "about" text in the feature tour (:
http://geirdal.is/images/studio/studio_07.png

It is risky, but i also find it very cool, fresh and inspiring. 90's
fractal with a millennial twist! This afternoon i will try put together
what i mean in a collage.

I'm convinced that, properly framed on the page, using geirdals pictures
could make the sexiest feature tour, ever :)

The only thing I would like to remind of is of the "big picgture", which
should be about information. It's easy to become a bit obsessed about
the details of a design, but the importance is still around what the
whole thing informs.

And, what is the information? That is the question that needs to be
answered - not only with graphics, but with  the whole thing.

The current feature tour is old, and should be buried. It should be
replaced by something that does the same thing, but better. Better
information. Better graphics, but most importantly - better information.



Thank you, Kaj!
I tried to base the text
( http://sakrecoer.com/ubuntustudio/feature-tour.txt )
and layout as good as i could on your and  autumna's wiki page:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/FeatureDefinitions/WebsiteXenial

The text (and me) is begging for review and i'd love to read/see what you 
all think should be corrected both text- and design-wise. I believe it's 
the typical kindof work that gets super strong from teamwork. After all, 
speaking to all, takes many. :)


Yours,

razor-qt, lxde, lxqt wine fonts always are bad very bad

The metapackages are a little different compared to normal packages,
because there is a special command to run the germination script locally
based on the seeds in the other repository, and update the
debian/control file.

I queried the the process with Kaj offline a while back, with the
intention to add it to the wiki. I will try and find the mail and
forward it. Or I will do it on the wiki for you to test-drive!

This should read:

Are you sure that the font rendering for the Linux apps for icewm

Are you already using winetricks?
