[ubuntu-studio-devel] Wallpaper Contest PR

[C. F. Howlett]

I completely agree with Kaj.  My access to social media is virtually
nill and will remain so until at least next week.  I understand that Set
has been actively bouncing our message out on social media outlets.  I
have directed messages to the relevant mailing lists and /subreddits.

So far, this seems to be working.  We have much more User Contributed
Content on our Flickr page than even the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase so
we must be doing something right!

Thanks Set. I was just about to do this myself, since cfhowlett can't
properly.
I'll also send the passwords to all parties, so that you can publish
this on the different social networks.

Really nice work.

The text logos don't seem right though. Zak updated those by removing
some space in between letters and making the "studio" part a bit fatter.
The ones you have there are the old, original version.

[ubuntu-studio-devel] Wallpaper contest

[C. F. Howlett]

Yeah about that:

I have looked at the art work produced for the other derivatives, and I 
admit to a great deal of envy for ubuntukylin's design and prodigious 
output.


I am unconvinced that we are fully obligated to comply with Canonical 
Design requirements sole exception being logo use.  As it happens, I 
have the *official* ubuntustudio logos released by Ubuntu Design.  I 
would like to upload them to the bzr site, but I have yet to figure out 
the method.


As regards the photography rules, I suggest that as a dedicated OS for 
*art creation*, we have a wide discretion and latitude. I am not 
suggesting a photographic free-for-all, but I submit that imposing 
restraining rules on creative output is somewhat contradictory.


So: questions.  Do we / should we have a wiki page?  We have had a 
community art page in the past, but it seems to be defunct.  Should we 
resurrect it?

Hi,

I tried to reach out to design.canonical and design.ubuntu, but i get no
answer. I think we should rip the other contests guide-lines off.

Anyways, all relevant information we need is here:
http://design.canonical.com/
and here:
http://design.ubuntu.com/

We just need to adapt it to our own colors and CoF:)

I cleaned up the ubuntustudio-artwork branch, so make sure you cd into
your local ubuntustudio-artwork branch and do:
bzr pull (i think it is enough...?)

And let me know if something is wrong or a bad idea:)

Looking forward to read you,

I'm not sure about the logo, if you are referring to the Circle of
Friends. We have our own design, for sure, though it is derived from
Ubuntu.
Also, the name Ubuntu Studio I think is a trademark of Canonical. At
least the "Ubuntu" part is.
In some way, all of what we do is derived from the same base: Ubuntu. I
would say, as long as we don't do anything stupid, I'm sure we'll be
fine.

Before making any changes to the branch, make sure you have got the
latest changes first with the command:
  bzr pull :parent

To add anything to the bzr branch, add the files to the folder like you
normally would. Then, from the command line add all new files with
(don't forget the punctation mark):
  bzr add .

To commit your changes, do (add your own description):
  bzr commit -m "describe your change here"

Then, upload:
  bzr push :parent

Feel free to create a new page or change an existing one if that makes
sense. Use the root https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Artwork, i.e.
something like UbuntuStudio/Artwork/UserContributed. Put a link to the
art sidebar so everyone can find it easily.

As it so happens, there is a page exactly like that, but you may want to
start a new one, or reorganize the existing one. You can find it here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Artwork/UserContributed

These pages are not among the sidebar links
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CategoryUbuntuStudioArtwork.

Also, there may be more artwork related pages here, if you want to take
a look: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/SubPages

It may make more sense to just ship a set of backdrops with all possible 
permutations and choose the right one to install or link to. The nice 
thing about creating a backdrop on the fly though, is that the DE logo 
could be included somewhere as well. For example the centre could have the 
Studio logo merged with the Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu, Lubuntu or whatever 
logo.

Ubuntu design requirements I am not so sure about. I the past we have 
varried in some ways. But the last few backdrops, at least the default 
ones, have tried to be both nice and _unobtrusive_. That is there has been 
a feeling that the backdrop should not get in the way of real work or be 
distracting in any way. Now that we have a few more people, more opinions 
on that could be voiced. On my personal machine I have replaced the 
backdrop with a picture of my son on the beach (in winter) on one screen 
and a large harbour tug on the other. Both pictures are quite busy but 
have not been a distraction to doing real work. I would suggest that any 
distracting will go away with use. That is a person will get used to 
almost anything in a very short time.


Of note in my use, I do not show any icons on my desktop as I find that 
operating method means I have to move windows to find the icons. Others 
may want a desktop that does not camouflage the icons.


The other feeling is that we would like Studio with the default backdrop 
to look "right" or "acceptable" in any bussiness setting. For example a 
store front portrait studio that takes family pictures. No one should feel 
they have to hide the backdrop while they are trying it out at their 
bussiness. I am sure any such place would replace the backdrop with their 
own logo anyway.


As regards the photography rules, I suggest that as a dedicated OS for *art 
creation*, we have a wide discretion and latitude. I am not suggesting a 
photographic free-for-all, but I submit that imposing restraining rules on 
creative output is somewhat contradictory.


I would agree with shipping a much wider variety than we do. I would also 
like to have backdrops that are only one workflow in content for those who 
are using Studio solely for photography for example.


I would love to see a back drop dedicated to each workflow so that a user 
can install Studio as a graphics station or a photography station and have 
it look dedicated to that workflow.


In fact it would be wonderful though 
probably not possible to set things up so that if the user only installed 
one workflow, that backdrop would show as default... Can we have a an 
install page right after the install choices page that allows the user to 
select "I will be using this as a  workstation." That selects 
the default backdrop and perhaps any system settings that apply to that 
workflow.


Please note, These are ideas and art is not my thing, so I am making these 
suggestions with the knowlage that I will not be supplying any backdrops. 
(I will not be doing the actual work)


Another thought just hit me, Can we divide the backdrop into sections with 
a uniform background and add a work flow theme to just a portion such that 
each workflow will be assigned a particular area and if any one workflow 
is installed, their part will be merged into the default backdrop at

backdrop... and someone to maintain it. It might mean shipping a graphics 
utility outside the graphics workflow as well. It might be outside the 
general direction Studio is taking.


So: questions.  Do we / should we have a wiki page?  We have had a community 
art page in the past, but it seems to be defunct.  Should we resurrect it?


A community art page is good to have. There have been people who are stuck 
on artwork from the past that they feel is just right and does not need to 
be changed. This would be a place they can choose other ideas.


And last but not least... anyone involved in art is likely to use their 
own backdrop to show off their talent rather than default.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] Wallpaper contest

[Ralf Mardorf]

Sometimes I use artwork as wallpaper, but often I'm using minimalist  
wallpapers, I wouldn't call "artwork", for Wily I made this very simple  
wallpaper:

http://picpaste.de/moonstudio_wallpaper_1.png (expires in 7 days)

Usually I don't add logos or signings to my self made wallpapers and I  
usually remove them if I use artwork/wallpapers made by others.


On my desktops usually are no icons, IOW usually I don't use a desktop at  
all, the workspaces are just backgrounds for the windows.
