[Reminder] Today is the wallpaper designs submission deadline
by Martin Sourada 28 Jul '09

28 Jul '09

Hi all, today, as per the schedule [1], is the wallpaper designs submission deadline. We are not going to consider completely new designs for F12 wallpaper after this deadline so if you still have something to share, please share it with us today, even if the work is still incomplete. It's also desirable to upload the images to fedora wiki and link to them in the F12 Artwork page [2] -- if it's not mentioned there, there is high probability it gets lost in noise and won't be considered. I'm going to upload the two new Samuele's works (4 horses) as well as the Jayme's Constantine wallpaper now. Thanks, Martin References: [1] http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-12/f-12-design-tasks.html [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F12_Artwork

Re: [Design-team] Proposal for wallpaper to Constantine
by Storari Samuele 28 Jul '09

28 Jul '09

Hi Guys This is one of my proposal I'm working on 3 concept right now, I hope to close the other 2 tomorrow. 4FLOWER Theme http://www.flickr.com/photos/sstorari/3762330306/ 4 Flowers for 4 F. I use Lotus 'cause Constantine build the Bizantine Roman Empire (Eastern Empire's) and the Lotus are also Eastern Flower. This is an abstract concept to comes out from the classic Roman feeling. Lotus come from: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/matze_ott/2247151022/">www.flickr.com/photos/matze_ott/2247151022/</a> Thanks to the author.

Self-introduction: Mel Chua
by Mel Chua 24 Jul '09

24 Jul '09

Hi! I'm Mel Chua (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Mchua). I'm new to the Design team, though I hang out in Marketing and Websites and am generally watching and learning in a lot of places. I studied engineering (electrical, so the FEL redesign ticket was an "ooh, shiny" one for me) and am, in general, obsessed with education. I'm currently a Community Architecture intern at Red Hat; open-source communities are awesome. I actually originally planned on studying art and graphic design in college, but my parents said no, so I took up engineering instead and crammed design classes into my schedule. Being at an engineering school, these classes were more product design and ethnography than anything that would actually improve my art/color/layout skills, so while I have (for instance) some interviewing mojo, my actual "making things" abilities are not so great. After seeing Mo transform my POSSE logo sketch (documented on http://blog.melchua.com/2009/07/11/the-posse-logo-progression/) into a thing of Awesomeness, I went "...oh wow, I want to learn to do that!" And so I'm here. I probably won't have a ton of bandwidth to do 100% Design Stuff - maybe a few things in conjunction with Marketing, or Websites, since I'm working on those anyway - but at the least I'll watch and learn, and if I'm able to help out, I shall. I am particularly curious about... * the design process (how do you tell whether a design is "good"? I don't know how to frame this question properly.) * colors. Because I can't figure out how to develop an eye for color, no matter what I try. * paper prototyping and other quick-and-dirty mockup techniques for user testing I tried taking my first ticket as per the join instructions, which was a hackergotchi (really, really small project). I wasn't sure whether you had to wait for approval for the list before commenting on the ticket, so I erred in the "release early release often" direction since this was a tiny, tiny ticket... let me know if I should do anything different next time. https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/51#comment:1 --Mel PS: I have been reading the archives and looking through old tickets and I am in awe. You folks have mad, mad skillz.

photos: the mosaic and the fountains
by Nicu Buculei 23 Jul '09

23 Jul '09

I have no idea which architectural style is this, but yesterday evening (around the "golden hour"[1]) when passing near a group of fountains in the center of my city I noticed the mosaic and i *had to* take some photos ans share them with the rest of the gang: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/photos/mosaic/ So i'm not sure they fit the desired style, not sure they will give anybody ideas, but I think sharing them may be cool.
