Mockup: Joining process
by Vinzenz Vietzke 05 Oct '11

05 Oct '11

Hi, Christoph Wickert asked me to create a more "graphical" way for the Ambassadors' joining process. [1] At the moment this is some kinda click through way through seven pages fully loaded with text and information. Which isn't very welcoming and friendly, especially for new people. (I know what I'm talkin about as I went through it not long ago!) Now I made two mockups: * a starting page: http://vinz.fedorapeople.org/join-process/joining-intro.png * some template for the following steps: http://vinz.fedorapeople.org/join-process/joining-step.png Maybe it's a possible way to create wiki templates for usage at every team which has a joining process. Comments? vinz. -- Vinzenz Vietzke Fedora Ambassador / Coordination German L10N Team m: vinz(a)fedoraproject.org wk: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Vinz mb: https://identi.ca/vinzv

FUDcon Pune 2011 Tshirt design
by Buddhike Kurera 03 Aug '11

03 Aug '11

For FUDcon Pune 2011, I am planning the tshirt design. I am thinking of following design. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:Fudcon-india-tshirt-1-design.png The front view use the event logo as already set on the middle of the t shirt, at the back as it is shown a henna design will lead towards the left side, top to bottom. The henna design should be drawn, is there any ideas of the henna pattern. Please improve my thoughts, ideas welcome. -- Regards, *Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera* Fedora Ambassador Sri Lanka Event Liaison - Design Team

Another Pune poster idea
by Máirín Duffy 02 Aug '11

02 Aug '11

This came out of our meeting discussion. This adds more visual hierarchy so that you can at a glance get information in the following order: - why should i be interested in this event? (open source & free software) - what is the event? (fudcon pune) - when is the event? (4-6 november) - where is the event? (college of engineering pune) - more details (description, topic list, URL, sponsors) One question though, what time of day should someone show up? ~m

Logo FUDCon Blacksburg
by Sirko Kemter 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Hi, We searched for a idea for a logo FUDCon Blacksburg after last meeting. And the idea came up to use a turkey. My idea was to use only a tail of one. Thats how it would look like. http://gnokii.fedorapeople.org/logo-blacksburg.png Is just a sketch so, colors are not 100% and the bubbles to, its fast vecotrized only to experiment with the position. My favorite is the third from top. The question is now, go with an full colored version or better with an outlined one, where I fear it have to bigger compared to the fudcon logo himself. So what are ur opinions? br gnokii

FUDCon India - Poster (rev A)
by Suchakra 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Thanks a lot for feedback and valuable suggestions! I really liked the 1st version too (though it wasn't following guidelines), but I'm still open to new ideas to redesign. Lets see where does it take us > ur first version was definitly better because it was simpler. > > When u make a poster start with an eyecatcher. Work with signal colors or an > high contrast. > What I doing always is I step a few steps away from the computer and look at > it. Look what ur eyes fetch first and if they get attention on the poster. > > My eye looks first to the fedora sign ;) Why the contrast brings it forward. I > like ur pattern that u added in the last 2 versions, I had a similar thing in > mind working on a shirt design. Like definitly to idea to use the state sign > of india in the font. By this you mean the '0' in 2011? > But now is the attention from the headline gone. > > Next dont overfill a poster with information.

[Verne] Wallpapers Need Karma; Current Schedule Items
by Martin Sourada 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hi all, == Wallpaper == as already mentioned yesterday on our meeting, the new wallpapers package need karma by users logged in to bodhi. The relevant update is: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/desktop-backgrounds-16.0.0-1.fc16,v… What whould be nice to test before giving carma? For KDE just install verne-backgrounds-{single,kde} and verify it appears in bg selector and hen selected, it works. For GNOME install verne-backgrounds-{single,gnome} and update desktop-backgrounds-gnome. Verify that the new wallpaper is set by default and appears in background selector. For XFCE install verne-backgrounds-{single,xfce} and update desktop-backgrounds-xfce. Verify that the new wallpaper is set by default and appears in background selector. AFAIK all these can be tested on F15 without any problems (F16 manages these the same way as F15). == Current Schedule Items == A kindly reminder that according to our schedule [1], apart from packaging the wallpaper there are also the two following action items in near future: * Supplemental Wallpapers Submissions deadline — Tue 8 August 2011 1900UTC * Alpha Release Banner due on Fri 12 August 2011 Submissions for Alpha release banner are to be uploaded at wiki [2] (and mentioned here on list). Thanks, Martin References: [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F16_Artwork/Schedule [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F16_Artwork/Submissions/Banners

Re: [Design-team] Logo request for Cobbler. Any takers?

Anyone wish to take up a logo request for Cobbler? If anyone is, I can give you a hand in the drawing part while you could just digitally color it. > Link to the ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/184 > > Description > > http://fedorahosted.org/cobbler > > We've recently been working on a web ui refresh for cobbler, and one of the > things that was discussed was the lack of a favicon.
