I just want to comment that I like the DVD cover art but one thing I noticed is that it doesn't match the color scheme used in the 11.2 release. The boot up splash screen in 11.2 is much darker green, almost brownish color. The DVD covers are more in line with the 11.1 bright green. -- John Lange www.johnlange.ca -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Hi everybody! I'm quite late to the DVD cover discussion. I think most of the designs here are really centered around the 11.1 theme, with the exception of the latest one from RageCryX. Overall the layout is usually quite dense with very little whitespace. Here's my take on the DVD simple cover based around the 11.2 theme. It's a bit lighter/more minimalistic. I would personally drop the screenshot even, but I'm sure everybody would disagree :).

Hello, :( Jimmac u have right that the style is more for 11.1 as for 11.2. I can use the colors from the wallpaper that I found. But the swirls u use not easy to reproduce ;) On my posters for the Launch Partys is the same. I use the old style there. Why? I can see the new style on ur flickr account but have no sources or know its that really the new design. Its simple no Input no Output ;) Btw: ur svg makes the following with my inkscape. inkscape cover.svg terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Geom::SVGPathParseError' what(): parse error Emergency save activated! Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now. If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we can fix it.

The trouble opening up the SVG might come from the fact path effects such as pattrn on path and spiro curves are used. Those features come in 0.47 any day now. The assets are available in the opensuse-art repo -- https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse-art/trunk/mockups/ cheers -- Jakub Steiner http://jimmac.musichall.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Hmm. Is this going to be a problem sending to Marcomm?

The SVGs are only to be considered the 'source' of the artwork. The output formats will either be the PDFs or the 300DPI bitmaps. And to be complete, here's the two live CD designs. The KDE cover is styled based on the KDE theme. http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/24178/opensuse/cover-gnome-cd.pdf http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/24178/opensuse/cover-gnome-cd.png http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/24178/opensuse/cover-gnome-cd.svg http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/24178/opensuse/cover-kde-cd.pdf http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/24178/opensuse/cover-kde-cd.png http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/24178/opensuse/cover-kde-cd.svg -- Jakub Steiner http://jimmac.musichall.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
