[opensuse-artwork] SVG Patterns
by Richard Brown 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Henne happened to post this on twitter, For those of us who work in SVG's, it looks like a great resource http://philbit.com/svgpatterns/ Following on from James' suggestion of sticking with what we did right and improving it, I plan on improving the 12.3 design with the SVG speckled noise from this site, as our current solution (embedded raster files) dramatically increased the file size of the branding-openSUSE package, which was quite a problem :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] Another Proposal
by Andy Silva 01 May '13

01 May '13

Hello friends Here is an SVG wallpaper proposal for a default wallpaper on openSUSE 13.1. I tried to go for typical bamboo reeds and a dark background. The design reminds me a lot of regular plants that one can feature in an office so the idea here is to link that to the wallpaper. There is also a very subtle complexity on the graphics. I tried toning down the green strength so that it does not become busy. I hope you like it. http://i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h414/anditosan/LeafWallpaper_zps9a3e2bd… Now remember that this submissions will end in about 6 weeks, at which time "Ilmehtar" will work with the images and start the packaging process and then the rest of the designs will continue to come up. It is great seeing that a few of you have made submissions and be sure that they are taken into account once an overall design for the next distribution is started based on the chosen wallpaper. Keep up the good work! -- 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, Thanks to Soumyadeep Ghosh and Rajat Gupta, students at Manipal University (my alma mater), we have put up about 20 posters in various notice boards. The posters were made by Soumyadeep some time back. I am attaching the links of the posters (sorry for the slightly hazy quality). I hope to see them contributing further in openSUSE :) http://wstaw.org/m/2013/04/28/P280413_22.52.jpg -- Regards,.

[opensuse-artwork] created 13.1 branch
by Stephan Kulow 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Hi, As KDE 4.10.2 requires a small adoption to our branding (and as such the package fails to build in factory), I took the opportunity to create a 13.1 branch for the branding repo - and I'm uploading it with astonishing 120KiB/s, so I should be done any time next week ;) 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] Supplemental Wallpaper Proposal
by Andy Silva 17 Apr '13

17 Apr '13

Hello friends! Here is another wallpaper that I have been working on recently. I want to make this one part of the supplemental wallpaper package for openSUSE 13.1. I hope it strikes the idea of simplicity and keeping the dark colors introduced on openSUSE 12.2. The idea here is to show simple crystals with some light effects. Looking at it from far away makes it stand out and I think that it enhances your work being unobtrusive and "blingy" at the same time. Please remember that you can also turn in your submissions for the next release of openSUSE. Everyone is invited to work on an image that they would like be considered for the wallpaper. Something to remember is that if you are making an image proposal for the "DEFAULT" wallpaper, your work will have to be done in SVG format. If the image proposal you are making is intended for the "SUPPLEMENTAL" wallpaper package, you can do it on raster as well as svg. If done in raster, you will have to prove copies of your work in 4 different resolutions, 2560 × 1440, 2560x1600, 2560x2048 and 2048x1536. http://i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h414/anditosan/2560x1440_zpse2f1fd79.jpg -- Andy (anditosan) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

"It boots sooo good!" http://youtu.be/FsTQc0ME1eo?t=1h1m11s) Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen - It's really nice to see all of our hard work be picked up and noticed like this..we really need to make sure 13.1 is just as good, or better! :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] Wallpaper Proposal
by Andy Silva 08 Apr '13

08 Apr '13

Hello friends Here is another dark wallpaper proposal. I worked on words that relate to coding and the world of open source. Hopefully it works out. I also added a dark leaf just to change the mood of this wallpaper (however, it can be taken out) Test it out! http://i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h414/anditosan/openSUSE_Wallpaper_zps3b… -- Andy (anditosan) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] My proposal for 13.1
by James Mason 03 Apr '13

03 Apr '13

Now seems to be the time that people are throwing ideas at the wall, seeing what will stick. My proposal is that we stick with what's already stuck. Despite the rough start, we've gotten *huge praise* for the artwork in 12.3, SO LETS FINISH IT: 1. Keep the core wallpaper design of 12.3. 2. Improve desktop integrations: 1. GNOME: flush out the time-sensitive wallpaper stack 2. KDE: Find/build a beautiful, functional KDM theme (or not...see 3). 3. E17: Wallpaper integration. 3. Unify our desktop experience: 1. Pick a unified desktop manager to use for *all the desktops*: SLiM, CDDM, LightDM, Entrance, etc... or GDM/KDM. Just one, though, that we can theme consistently. 2. Pick/build a unified icon theme to use for *all the desktops*: I don't care if its built on oxygen or gnome-icons, or back to Tango... but it ought to be beautiful, and at least somewhat *green*. 4. Improve supporting materials: since we won't be building everything from scratch we can focus a bit more on banners for social media, printables such as posters or banners in a variety of common sizes (and languages), etc. 5. Improve community engagement: Actually run, then collect and package, a selection of backgrounds from the community as supplemental artwork. That's all I've got. Just to iterate: I'm much rather see us put our efforts into refining a success than tossing it and starting over, just because that's what we usually do. -- James Mason SUSE Studio Developer openSUSE Member SUSE jmason(a)suse.com (P) +1 360 752 6707 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

Dear All, I clicked the following photos, http://500px.com/photo/29751343 http://500px.com/photo/30061713 http://500px.com/photo/30061515 I would like submit them as a part of our wallpaper submission thing.

If you guys like it, let me know how do I proceed furhter so that I can edit the ratios and make it available for packaging. -- Regards Manu Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

Is there any way that we can create a script that plugs into the packaging procedure that can take SVG as well as raster images for resizing? This idea has come up before but we don't have a raster script yet that integrates as well as the current one does. Could you take a look into it?

[opensuse-artwork] My proposal 13.1
by Victor hck 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hi all I'm working in a new proposal for the next release! But is very difficult after the great work done. ;) Here's a first draft... - https://www.dropbox.com/s/dteytm8k38q2xin/bubles.png there are many things to improve. Maybe the background, and many others, just a first proposal... I'm working in something very different from the last great background. Something like bubbles? with something like this is possible to make an animation in the boot, like in this release with venue and the Geeko appearing... ;) or make an animation wallpaper like those made by KDE Team! Well just my 2 ctns I'm continuing with this... Have fun! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org
