Request to review the mockups for AskFedora Redesign
by Kalpani Anuradha 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

Hi all, I'm working on the project AskFedora UX/UI and functionality overhaul under GSoC this summer. I have created some mockups for the pages in AskFedota which can be viewed at my blog - http://anuradhanotes.blogspot.com/search/label/GSoC Also I have set up a repository in fedoradesign github where I have pushed my current work on the mockups - https://github.com/fedoradesign/Askbot-mockups I would like to have some feedback on these mockups and would like to know the improvements that I need to do further and whether there are any additional things that I need to include in the designs. The views of all of you would be very important to this project. Thank you -- Anuradha Welivita Undergraduate | Department of Computer Science and Engineering University of Moratuwa Sri Lanka

Re: [Design-team] F23 Wallpaper.
by Samuel 21 Aug '15

21 Aug '15

Hi Máirín, well, I really prefer nr. 6 too; by less dense you mean fewer or more evenly distributed on the surface? The problem here is that the sparkles also generate the pattern in the background, so fewer spots mean a darker bg. I'm not sure there is a way to export the sparkles and the background separately, but I'll try that later.

Looping video for projectors
by Ryan Lerch 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

I had an idea to make up a looping video to have up on the projectors instead of having them blank while people are waiting for talks. Here is what I came up with: https://ryanlerch.fedorapeople.org/rochester-just-wavy.webm The ticket tracking this is here if you have any ideas. https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/396 I was thinking about working on making it longer, and perhaps running through the sponsors, and maybe other important information, slide-show style but in a video, but will hack at adding that stuff after the other print stuff for flock is done. cheers, ryanlerch

multi monitor wp in Nuancier
by S.Kemter 29 Jul '15

29 Jul '15

Hi, There is a student working on multi monitor wallpaper support for Nuancier. You can look for his progress here: https://prthp.wordpress.com/category/gsoc/ That we provide at least dual monitor wallpaper, was more then once requested on us. There are currently 24 different variations for resolutions, some might not be from interest. The problem is simple even when it are only two monitors, we have to produce a huge variety of different wallpapers. Its not just produce two wallpaper and leave the scaling to the DE. Let me give you an example. Right now I working on a laptop with an resolution of 1024x768 and a second monitor is attached with 1920x1200 and he is standing on the left side. So only one possibility means 2 pictures, if I change the position of the monitor to the right side it are already 4. Not speaking that some developer have often an attached monitor in portrait mode for reading documentation. What it means for us as Design Team means, we have to decide if we want to provide dual or multi-monitor wallpaper for the default wallpaper and then produce just one picture large enough and the user can go to Nuancier and get the right resolutions by them self. So for a dual setup we would have to provide a picture 5120x2560 that would cover, two monitors of 2560x2048 resolution and even would cover one in portrait mode. If we want to provide a triple monitor setup it would be 7680x2560 Q: just dual or do we want to provide triple also? But there are more open questions, do we want to allow user contributions there or do we just to make as section where we produce some wallpapers for it? If we want to make user contributions possible then is the question, how to deal with it, I personally think the a release submission phase will not work for this kind of wallpaper. There might be only one or maybe two submissions in this way as you need stitched photographies. Leave as an always submission thing might be the better option but we would not have an mechanism we have with the election to ensure quality standards. Q: opinions on that? and there is one question more, for the normal supplemental wallpaper the Fedora logo is not allowed as they are packaged and could end up in a derivate of Fedora. But this is then just an online solution so do we want another rules setup for them or keep the one from supplemental wallpapers? Hope to get some of you opinions on that things br gnokii -- make me rich, buy my Inkscape book http://is.gd/yq5OD0 ;)

GitHub & Pagure.io
by Ryan Lerch 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

the fedora infra team has a new "git forge" application called Pagure which essentially could replace our newish content that we have been putting into github. One thing that we don't have in Pagure (that we also dont have in github either because we are using a free account) is private repos. The only reason we would need a private repo would be to put the fedora logopack into, since we don't publish those publiclly. I had a brief chat with the pagure folks in #fedora-admin and it seems that private repos may be a thing in pagure in the future though. anyone have any thoughts? cheers, ryanlerch

Flock Badges
by Ryan Lerch 17 Jul '15

17 Jul '15

Hi all, I have been working on the design for the Badges for flock, and if you get a chance, can you check out the current iterations I have and provide some feedback in the ticket? The current idea I have uses a the artwork from the flock tshirt, and with a little work should print ok. One thing to remember with these badges is that they are a lot smaller than the badges in years past, so that is why there are only a few larger elements in the design. https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/391#comment:8 cheers, ryanlerch

Artboard is back!
by Máirín Duffy 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

Hi folks :) nirik fixed the artboard for us today. It has been broken for a while. It has a new URL now: https://artboard.fedorainfracloud.org/artboard/ For folks who haven't used it before, the artboard is just a little open source app (shimme2) deployed on Fedora's infrastructure to give us a place to quickly upload artwork and get comments on it. Kind of like using imgur.com or something like that, but open source. It's not hooked up to the Fedora account system, so you have to create a separate account for it to use it. Please feel free to use this as a tool to share sketches / ideas / etc. ~m
