Hi,
I just want to get to know the current status for 13.2:
1. Kim has done the YaST installer theme. (I forgot to mention that, sorry Kim) Yeah on that subject, Richard seems to have all the pieces ready to be merged, (We can checkout what Kenneth have done in his repo on github) and backport them to our -branding.
2. Bruno said there's no default wallpaper chosen, but there's a supplementary wallpaper package made (Kostas just forgot to send us the OBS link) I've made a search on obs, seems the supplemental wallpaper are still located here https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:warlordfff
Now the content has certainly changed since 6 months, and the rpm has to be tested. I guess you've to refresh the tar.xz by the content of what is inside the github/artwork/ /Wallpapers/13.2/Supplemental_Wallpapers/
Marguerite, I've seen you seems to have to knowledge to check it and improve it since you've already done that kind of things https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:MargueriteSu/wallpaper-cute-liz...
Once the preparation steps are done, you can submit it from your home to devel:openSUSE:Factory project. Would that make sense and is doable for you ? We certainly can help and assist you with the packaging, and also all git related stuff (Yes victorck, anditosan I'm looking at you :-)
I don't want to comment but...the communication and governance for our artworks team is just a mess...so let's summaize things we did, don't know if getting done, didn't start to do: In middle of chaos, those who do, get power. That answer sucks, and I agree on the symptom you've describe. But again one year after the 13.1 release, its again rush time. Hopefully, we still didn't miss the GA deadline.
1. YaST theme? (installer: done; main UI?) 2. KDE theme? KDE whole branding is split following this rules 99% is in kdebase4-openSUSE (source), splitted into kdebase4-runtime-branding-openSUSE (the theme materials) and kdebase4-workspace-branding-openSUSE (config) and 1% is in branding-openSUSE (kdelibs4-branding-openSUSE, the about:/ branding)
I've discussed today with shumski on irc the last idea for the kde-branding (initiated by Marcus) was to invert dark and light color for the base branding and also propose a light variant that would look like this ( quick hack ) http://i.imgur.com/kRl7Etg.png minus the wallpaper :-)
So we need brave here to hack the theme, and take time to hack on it.
3. icon theme? That one will die, certainly by lack of time, The proposal made some months ago is not finished or is it ? Is there a repository to checkout the work, is there a spec draft ? 4. grub2 theme? Don't know if a big changes is needed here.
5. plymouth theme? and not only the theme, the animation is important ... simple slick, should be also discussed with plymouth maintainers. Now there's something we can do also to minimize the impact on plymouth and grub and initrd With luks encrypted partition we show a message to unlock the screen.
If we replace the string ( which is always in english ) by a small lockdown icon we don't have to embeded pango fonts etc ... But I guess for this changes, we should have do that before ...
6. GDM/KDM theme?
7. wallpaper? https://sysrich.co.uk/owncloud/public.php?service=files&t=8e9e9269a94c30ae35a0da92d0946d64 was presented to me to the near almost done finished proposal
Mine is already in git.
I proposed a while back a wallpaper which plays well with the current theme. This would allow us to keep the rest of the design as is.
Changing all components might already be too late.
Greets Marcus
Which one are we talking about ?
Wallpapers/13.2/openSUSE_13_2.svg ( Damn blurry geeko in the middle of the screen, that make you believe you've to go to ophthalmologist)
Yes, this one. I really appreciate your loving comments.
Greetings Marcus
it's not only loving, its unfortunate that this wallpaper installed on a 10 people panel show it's perceptual limit. Okay perhaps my panel is already too old and they are far from their twenties ...
The wallpaper is meant to be used with scale & crop. Only one wallpaper for all resolutions.
But you miss the important point about the global agreement on the list, I still didn't found it, nor you give me back the link to the mail where the group around here agreed on that particular one ?
Can I add the following fact, if there was an agreement, why nobody has since forked the -branding repo, prepare the wall paper and submit back so people with the right to merge could merge that request and start the packaging ?
I also cannot find an agreement (and think it's impossible in this group of ppl). The only way is to set up a vote system, but this will lead to ppl voting for bitmap only images. Anyway, I have discussed this often enough, offered solutions, and also contributed a lot to the old branding guidelines. I wish Marguerite all the best to continue this process. Maybe she has more luck on that. Greetings Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org
