Hey there, I thought that I had posted about this earlier but the thread doesn't seem to be showing up anywhere so I'm going to put it out here again (apologies if this is coming up for a second time for some of you!). I'm with the Design Team and I've been working on a redesign for the Anaconda install banners and was hoping to get some input about the content/ functionality of what I've got after doing a couple of different iterations based on the design team feedback. I'm attaching a link to the design team ticket for this project so that you can see the progression of the banner. The latest version is the last one posted. If you have any ideas/ comments/ or other feedback feel free to email me at mshaksho@redhat.com, comment here, do leave comments right in the design team ticket! Thanks! Mary

I like the design overall. For content, we should interface with Marketing. I think there are three broad categories of messaging we could include. No, wait, four.
1. Tips for the flavor of Fedora you are in the process of installing. (Plugs for LibreOffice, Rhythmbox, etc.)
2. Pointers to user-community resources, like Fedora Magazine and Ask, as well as @fedora on twitter.
3. "There's more to Fedora!" — promote other Editions and Spins, as well as ARM and etc.
4. You can get involved! — invite people to participate in ways they might not be aware of.
I'd definitely like to see #1 vary for the Editions (and for the Spins too, if the relevant SIGs participate). If I'm installing Fedora Server, I should get tips about Cockpit and available roles rather than music players and productivity software. The rest could be common (although I guess for #3, they could be a bit tailored).
Hi Matt,
If you install the system, would be great to know the FAS ID forward, then you know the user roles, targets, and interested groups, and you can suggest softwares, maybe offer optional to install softwares based on the FAS info. Technically I don't know how hard would be to create FAS account if the user hasn't got any, or subscriptions to channels, mailing lists - or community role based addons - within the install process.
To the desgin: http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/svg-animations/ - some animated very simple svg icons (like http://codepen.io/luruke/pen/mbnkA) would be pretty much new thing, that no one does, and would be pretty nice touch IMHO. Maybe.

I wonder if there is any plan to overhaul the whole screen. The banners don't really have enough space there. There is a large blank space that is supposed to be for extra spokes, but the new Anaconda has been with us for 4 years and I haven't seen any extra spoke in action. It's just huge waste of space that could be used by larger and more informative banners.

Hi! One of the banners is suggesting to install Libreoffice, but as far as I'm aware, Libreoffice is already installed by default in Workstation. - Andreas

That one has been in the distro since the days when the desktop Live was still limited to a CD-ROM. It should probably be updated to read "Use LibreOffice to..." rather than "Install LibreOffice to...". Or perhaps, "Fedora Workstation Edition comes with LibreOffice to..."

Yes but it also shouldn't be shown on when installing other variants where Libreoffice isn't applicable including the server edition

Yes, I've made that same assertion in the design team ticket. I mostly meant that I don't think it should be removed from the Workstation installer, but should be updated.

I think I would be safe to just remove that banner then. As you mention, there was a need for it in the past, in order for people to learn they could easily install an office suite. These days, it's fairly prominent if you just go into the Application overview, so the need for the banner isn't there any more. - Andreas
Work on refreshing the banners is in progress. Mary messaged this list a while back asking for this kind of feedback on the banners Workstation WG would like to see. Please let us know ASAP any more of this kind of feedback so it can be reflected in her designs.
Thanks+ cheers, ~m
