[opensuse-artwork] General Meeting
by andi robert 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hello my friends A few weeks ago I sent out an email to request a meeting of the Artowork Team. The meeting was thought to happen after the release of 12.1 and I am happy to say that the artwork team did a tremendous work in making 12.1 a beautiful green distro. Now it would be a great time to get together as a team and discuss goals and ideals that we would like to have for the team. Our meeting will help us get to know each other, organize ourselves, and produce artwork with focus. This meeting could happen on IRC as it is a very standard method of communication. Since this is a correlation meeting, IRC will be more than enough to propose our ideas. I am now asking the team to set a date and a time when we can all (or as many as possible) can meet. I could come up with a minute for the meeting if necessary. Thank you Andy (anditosan) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi All >> We first should agree on a timeline. >The release schedule for 12.2 is not set yet. What I mean is to find a >general timeline that fits on every release, e.g. deadline for >submissions is Milestone 1, Final artwork has to be packaged till >Milestone 3. Even without a fixed timeline, I'd like our work on 12.2 to be far less rushed than we did 12.1. Having meetings and discussions like this is just the sort of thing we need to get the ball rolling Once we've had a meeting I think a good next step would be to start taking concepts and initial submissions. (Do we have a date yet, I think I may have missed it in this thread?) I don't think we should be limiting ourselves with artificially defined concepts and concerns about colours Lets see what our contributors can submit and from there hopefully discussions about colour and a shared concept for various artwork would hopefully take shape > - Who can vote? When it comes to voting on submissions, concepts, or even colours, I have the following opinion I see the artwork team as being here to provide artwork for the openSUSE project and its community I feel we can decide a great deal of things among ourselves, and we have knowledge, skills and expertise that might lead us in a certain direction with the artwork we would like to see in the distribution (vector vs raster, any other colour vs green) But at the end of the day, we cannot act, nor be seen to act, like beings in some grand ivory tower Fundamentally, for our artwork to be 'successful', it must at the very least be accepted by the community, and to be a true success our chosen artwork must be accepted by 'the wider world', and be an eyecatching draw to grab another non-openSUSE user and encourage them to try our distribution. So I have no objection to us deciding much as a team, with group consensus, internal votes when no consensus is obvious, but any controversial decisions (such as a move from green) should have at least an openSUSE membership wide vote, and personally I'd prefer an open vote. We may have good reason to second guess the results of such a vote, and as a group we may reserve the right (with lots of public explanation why) to go with something different, but we really must seek a wider opinion than just our small group and be seeing to consider and have our work shaped by that opinion. We also cant forget that our artwork is going to have a great impact on some very specific teams, such as marketing, and I'd like to see this 12.2 round as an opportunity to improve collaboration between both groups. At the very least, the marketing team have a number of keen minds who could be a perfect 'focus group' to help us consider issues before bringing them to the wider community. Anyhow, back to the point of this thead - when are we having a meeting? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] [gnome] Looking for artwork help
by Dimstar / Dominique Leuenberger 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Dear artists! A short introduction to the 'problem': https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=733094 GDM (the gnome login manager) allows for branding with a log on top of the 'login window'. As you can see in the bug referenced above, our 'competition' Fedora does this nicely. We don't :P (not not nicely, but not at all) So, we were wondering if we could have some 'artwork' resources coming up with some nice branding for our GDM as well? We did try branding using /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/distributor.svg, but this looks completely out of place A feeling would be that having a 'banner style' branding instead of a square blob might greatly improve the look and feel of this. Obviously, you'll want to test how this looks on your machines, so you'd have to modify (as root) the file /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/openSUSE-branding.gschema.override and change the parts [org.gnome.login-screen] ## Logo in the gdm login dialog #logo='/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/distributor.svg' to something like [org.gnome.login-screen] ## Logo in the gdm login dialog logo='/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/mysupernicegdmbranding.svg' After which, you'll have to execute (stil as root) /usr/bin/glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas to make sure the schema is properly read and applied. Should you have any further questions, please let me know. I'll gladly help and answer to the best of my knowledge. Best regards, Dominique / DimStar (PS: please CC me on replies, as I'm not subscribed to -artwork) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] openSUSE 12.1 is done
by Stephan Kulow 22 Nov '11

22 Nov '11

Hi, I'm sure you heared about it :) But now would be a good time to discuss large scale changes for 12.2, actually I would prefer that we have something broken in Milestone1 instead of leaving the 12.1 artwork till beta1 again ;( Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] Why does the KDM theme 12.1 not have a user list?
by Joseph Mulloy 20 Nov '11

20 Nov '11

I really liked the KDM theme in 11.4 which had a very nice user list. The theme in 12.1 does not have a user list, which I believe is a regression. It is 2011 and most operating systems have user lists in their logon managers instead of requiring users to remember their username unless they are on a corporate domain. I wish I saw the new theme before the release but I didn't because I didn't uncheck the auto-login checkbox when I install the beta in a VM. Can someone who was involved in creating the theme explain why this decision was made?

I agree with the two of you. I think it is time we get together as a team and work on a more unified theme for openSUSE. I have heard of good suggestions and good ideas that can help us. Would it be ok if we set up an IRC meeting to determine what areas of openSUSE artwork, we would like to focus on?

[opensuse-artwork] MUDAH-MUDAHAN BERMANFAAT...
by Rina Indria 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

Dear Rekan2, Mohon maaf kalau sudah pernah mendapat informasi serupa sebelumnya. Kenalkan saya Rina, mahasiswi salah satu universitas swasta di Bandung. Rina pengen berbagi informasi nih buat kita semua, mudah2an bermanfaat. Barangkali ada dari rekan2 yg sedang butuh dana/income dalam jumlah besar.. Rekan2 bisa baca cara mendapatkannya disini (silakan klik atau copy-paste link berikut ke browser anda): http://www.prog5milyar.com/?id=sukses123 Iseng2 rina udah coba, dan hasilnya udah lumayan banget utk ukuran rina. Lihat rincian income rina dibawah dan SCAN BUKU TABUNGAN rina terlampir, atau: http://www.program5milyar.com/Buku_Tabungan_Rina.pdf (silakan klik atau copy-paste link diatas) SCAN BUKU TABUNGAN member lain (bpk Anton): http://www.program5milyar.com/Rekening_Anton.pdf SCAN BUKU TABUNGAN Bu Eva (terlampir), atau: http://www.program5milyar.com/Tabungan_Eva.pdf Jangan lupa lihat juga scan/print buku tabungan member lain di menu "Kesaksian", klik: http://www.prog5milyar.com/kesaksian.php?id=sukses123 Program ini dijalankan secara online (maya), tapi uang yg dihasilkan betul2 riil. Ada transaksi, ada produk, logis, masuk akal, dan tidak ada satu pihak pun yg dirugikan dalam program ini.. Program ini dijalankan secara LEGAL & HALAL (penjelasan detail harap baca di websitenya, di menu “Legal & Halal”) Websitenya ( http://www.prog5milyar.com/?id=sukses123 ) menjelaskan secara lengkap semua hal tentang program ini sampai sejelas2nya. Mungkin dipahami dulu aja sistem/cara kerja program ini secara keseluruhan di websitenya. Sistemnya tidak rumit, mudah sekali dipahami. Rina yakin, semua uneg2 / pertanyaan2 dari rekan2 pasti akan terjawab jika membaca semua materi yg ada pada setiap menu di website tsb. Pastikan rekan2 tidak mengambil kesimpulan/berkomentar apa2 dulu sebelum betul2 membaca semua materi yg ada pada setiap menu di website, karena program5milyar ini unik, berbeda dg bisnis manapun yg pernah ada. Rina dulu juga gabung atas ajakan teman yg udah duluan mendaftar. Tadinya sih rina gak mau berpikir muluk2, asal bisa balik modal aja udah cukup, lagian kita kan dapat produk yg nilainya bahkan lebih besar dari yg kita bayarkan. So, nothing to loose. Tapi ternyata apa yg rina peroleh sungguh di luar perkiraan rina. Rincian income Rina pada awal 8 bulan pertama bergabung adalah sbb: (catatan: semua komisi dibawah ditransfer langsung oleh member baru ke rekening kita) Rina dapat “member langsung” sebanyak 17 orang (disebut member level-1) => komisi yg ditransfer ke rekening Rina = 17 x Rp 50.000 = Rp 850.000 Masing2 member level-1 diatas mendapatkan pula member rata-rata sebanyak 8 orang (disebut member level-2, jumlah = 8 x 17 = 136 orang) => komisi yg ditransfer ke rekening Rina = 136 x Rp 10.000 = Rp 1.360.000 Masing2 member level-2 rata2 mendapatkan member 6 orang (disebut member level-3, jumlah = 6 x 136 = 816 orang) => komisi yg ditransfer ke rekening Rina = 816 x Rp 10.000 = Rp 8.160.000 Masing2 member level-3 rata2 mendapatkan member 4 orang (disebut member level-4, jumlah = 4 x 816 = 3264 orang) => komisi yg ditransfer ke rekening Rina = 3264 x Rp 10.000 = Rp 32.640.000 Masing2 member level-4 rata2 mendapatkan member 3 orang (disebut member level-5, jumlah = 3 x 3264 = 9792 orang) => komisi yg ditransfer ke rekening Rina = 9792 x Rp 50.000 = Rp 489.600.000 Jadi, total komisi yg ditransfer ke rekening Rina (pada awal 8 bulan pertama bergabung): = 850.000 + 1.360.000 + 8.160.000 + 32.640.000 + 489.600.000 = Rp 532.610.000,- Angka diatas TERUS MENINGKAT HINGGA SEKARANG sudah mencapai 2M lebih. Bagaimana dana tsb bertubi2 masuk ke rekening kita? Lihat SCAN BUKU TABUNGAN Rina terlampir. Lumayan banget utk ukuran rina. Uang segitu mungkin udah cukup utk beli rumah and mobil. Rina yakin kita semua bisa kok mendapatkan income seperti yg Rina dapatkan di atas. Kuncinya sih asal kita rajin aja nyebarin link website replika kita ke teman2 kita, rekan kerja, sodara, ke siapa saja, baik lewat email, milis2, situs2 iklan, dll, kemudian TUNJUKKAN BUKTI SCAN BUKU TABUNGAN para member yg telah sukses di program ini, atau scan buku tabungan anda jika anda sudah mendapatkan income yg lumayan di program ini, biasanya tidak terlalu sulit meyakinkan teman2 kita utk bergabung (scan buku tabungan para member bisa diambil/didownload di menu “Kesaksian” di website diatas, atau bisa juga gunakan scan buku tabungan rina terlampir. Jika anda sudah mendapatkan income lumayan di program ini, anda juga bisa tunjukkan scan buku tabungan anda ke teman2). Website replika adalah website atas nama kita sendiri yg kita dapatkan secara otomatis setelah keanggotaan kita diaktifkan. Website replika rina adalah: http://www.prog5milyar.com/?id=sukses123 Setiap transaksi yg terjadi lewat website replika kita, otomatis masuk rekening kita. Tidak perlu kuatir pengembangan Program Program 5MILYAR ini akan jenuh, karena pertumbuhan pengguna internet di Indonesia yg mencapai 6 juta orang lebih per tahun jauh lebih besar dibanding pertumbuhan peserta program ini. Jadi program ini abadi, tidak akan ada istilah “member terakhir” dalam program ini, karena akan selalu ada 6 juta orang lebih pengguna baru internet tiap tahunnya yg potensial utk jadi member. RINA PUNYA TRIK2 / TIPS2 JITU agar bisa merekrut banyak member berdasarkan pengalaman rina sendiri, gak banyak orang yg tahu. Rina bisa share jika rekan2 bergabung lewat account rina: http://www.prog5milyar.com/?id=sukses123 Segera gabung ya.. Sistemnya rina rasa sangat sederhana dan mudah dipahami, informasi lengkap disini (silakan klik atau copy-paste link berikut ke browser anda): http://www.prog5milyar.com/?id=sukses123 (website replika Rina, sukses123 adalah username Rina) Mohon disebarkan juga informasi ini ke teman2 kita yg lain yg sedang membutuhkan dana dlm jumlah yg besar. Salam, Rina Facebook Rina: http://www.facebook.com/rina.indria Friendster Rina: http://www.friendster.com/rinaku “UANG BUKAN SEGALANYA, TAPI SEGALANYA PERLU UANG” NB: Jika anda tidak punya akses internet di kantor/kampus, silakan copy/tulis link berikut: http://www.prog5milyar.com/?id=sukses123 kemudian dibuka di rumah/warnet ya.. Untuk gambaran awal, silakan lihat overview program ini terlampir. ************************************************************************* KESAKSIAN MEMBER LAIN, PAK BAMBANG WIDJATMOKO DARI SURABAYA: Bisa Menguliahkan Anak dan Biaya Berobat Ibu yg Sakit Dear webmaster program 5 milyar, Saya ingin berterima kasih sekali kepada anda karena dengan adanya program ini saya betul2 terbantu dalam pemenuhan berbagai kebutuhan dana keluarga saya. Biaya ibu berobat ke rumah sakit, biaya kuliah anak2, dan insya Allah untuk biaya beli rumah yg lebih layak bulan depan (mudah2an). Awalnya saya kenal program ini, saya mendapat email dari seorang teman (beda kantor). Ada program bisnis bagus nih, katanya. Sistemnya sederhana, gampang dipahami, dan kalo sabar bisa mendapatkan penghasilan lebih dari 5 milyar, tambahnya lagi. Mendengar kata-kata 5 milyar, saya berpikir skeptis, mana mungkin, batin saya, akhirnya saya delete saja email tsb. Sekitar 4 bulan setelah itu, saya mendapatkan email yg sama dari rekan yg berbeda. Dengan semangat menggebu2 di emailnya dia bercerita kalo dalam waktu sebulan dia bergabung, saldo di rekening BNI-nya bertambah lebih dari Rp 100 juta. Saya berpikir, gak mungkin dua orang sahabat baik saya berbohong tentang hal yg sama terhadap saya. Lagi pula gak ada ruginya bergabung, toh cuma 180 ribu saja, itu pun sudah dapat produk berupa program bisnis. Akhirnya, iseng2 saya gabung, tanpa harapan yg berlebihan. Kemudian saya informasikan program ini lewat email, sms, mulut ke mulut, dll ke sekitar 80 orang. Sebagian dari mereka ada y g saya kenal dan ada juga yg tidak, setelah itu saya lupakan. Sekitar 3 bulan setelah itu, waktu saya menyetor uang ke bank (jumlahnya sekitar 500 ribu waktu itu), waktu buku tabungan saya di-print saya menunggu lama sekali, teller-nya bilang buku tabungan saya sudah tidak muat lagi dan harus diganti dengan yg baru. Saya kaget, ada apa? Rasanya dalam 3 bulan terakhir saya tidak melakukan transaksi apa2. Begitu saya cek, di kolom kredit isinya 50 ribu dan 10 ribu banyak sekali dan di kolom saldo tercetak angka 160 juta lebih dan jika ditambah dengan buku ke 2 totalnya ada 250 juta sekian. Sontak saya kaget, ini duit begitu banyak dari mana? Setelah berpikir keras dan melihat angka 50 ribu dan 10 ribu baru saya teringat program 5 milyar yg saya pernah gabung dulu karena waktu gabung saya juga mentransfer 50 ribu dan 10 ribu ke beberapa orang. Aduh maaak, terima kasih Tuhan, terima kasih webmaster. Saya bisa kuliahkan anak dan membantu biaya berobat ibu saya yg sakit dengan dana ini. Setelah itu saya betul2 percaya bahwa program bisnis ini bener2 bekerja. Sejak itu saya mulai aktif mempromosikan program ini ke siapa saja, lewat email, milis, sms, dll. Sekarang hasilnya sudah lebih dari 500 juta masuk ke rekening bank saya. Sekali lagi terima kasih webmaster program 5 milyar.

Heya all, We have all een complaining at times about our two repositories on gitorious. First of all because they overlap - the one (openSUSE/art) has both distro artwork and marketing things, the other (opensuse- artwork) has only marketing things. The second complaint is that gitorious isn't easy to work with. For the first problem: I have moved the stuff from openSUSE/art to gitorious where it seemed to make sense to me. I did however not ask if you all were OK with that so I do that now - better to ask for forgiveness and revert a commit than to ask for permission :D If you are unhappy with the changes, let me know please! If you don't have access to opensuse-artwork, let me know too :D Second, gitorious is not perfect for us. The biggest issue, at least for the upcoming 12.1 release, is that you can not download files from there. At least, not if they are bigger than 1 MB or so. That is a big problem. Now we haven't decided on a good successor yet but for the time being I am going to clone our repo into Github. There you can, ON THE WEBSITE, see differences between files, and you can download big files. That solves at least the biggest issues... We can then, later on, decide on a better solution. Let me know what you think about moving to Github. Yes, it's not perfect, but other parts of openSUSE are also moving there and we could quite easily migrate what we have now to github and have something at least a bit better while we look for a perfect solution for us :D Cheers, Jos
