Design opportunity: SugarZilla
by Mel Chua 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Steven Parrish is working on a more user-friendly bugzilla interface: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-infrastructure-list/2009-August/msg0… ...but how do we know if it will actually be more user-friendly? https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-infrastructure-list/2009-August/msg0… This sounds like an opportunity for.... DESIGN! *DAH-dah-DAHHH* (just a fyi, in case anyone is interested. carry on.) --Mel

My Design Ideas
by Sherjeel Shabih 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Hey guys! I am 13 and develop web and windows applications. Now I wanted to join the bright side of the digital world, the open-source side. I am not sure if I can develop for your OS, so I opted going for designing currently. My designs would amaze you! 'Cause I am an artist by nature, and I have a really good sense of designs. My age is also a fresh one, so you'll get ideas that'll be "fresher than you think". Please provide me with some work you guys want to complete so I can be a great help. I hope you don't mind my age. I used to work for a software house, but I left it bcoz of studies and all. Now I do freelancing sometimes. But I never came across doing something for you guys. So I think I have a chance here. I hope that you'll contact me soon.

[Echo Perspective] utilities-terminal and utilites-system-monitor
by Kris Thomsen 13 Aug '09

13 Aug '09

Hi! I have made two more icons - based on the user-desktop-icon. And now I'm confident enough to share them. I don't know if it maybe would look better with a glossy-layer? (Like the one there is on the user-desktop icon[1] http://code-geek.baah.dk/Echo/utilities-system-monitor.png http://code-geek.baah.dk/Echo/utilities-system-monitor.svg http://code-geek.baah.dk/Echo/utilities-terminal.png http://code-geek.baah.dk/Echo/utilities-terminal.svg [1] http://code-geek.baah.dk/Echo/user-desktop-kt.png

source control for fedora-themes
by Rex Dieter 12 Aug '09

12 Aug '09

Was just chatting a bit with msourada in #fedora-design today, and I was curious about contributing kde-compatible bits to constantine-backgrounds directly instead of doing it separately like in the past, see https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-kde-artwork/ https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-kde-artwork/browser but I'd like to get away from that, and get everything more collaborative and centralized. But, it seems there is no source-control currently being used for fedora theming yet. I'd like to propose hosting what's used in stuff like constantine-backgrounds (and future fedora-related theming) in a git (or svn or whatever) repo on http://fedorahosted.org/fedora-design/ I'm not suggesting (yet anyway) using such repos for design-workflow really, that's something that seems to already have been worked out. I'm only talking about the often painful technical details of getting already- designed stuff under source-control, and packaged for distro use. -- Rex

SVG rendering performance
by Charlie Brej 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

If we choose to distribute SVGs as the default background files, it may be an idea to examine the rendering speed. On my rather old home machine, it takes over two minutes to draw the mosaico SVG background [1] with the CPU running flat out. What really increases the cpu demand is the use of blur. Removing all blur brings it down to 3 seconds (about the same as other PNG/JPEG backgrounds). We should also remove all the additional XML fluff inkscape puts into the files.
