[opensuse-artwork] Splash Screen Contest
Splash Screens Contest Hello artists and enthusiasts. We have been hard at working with our artwork for 12.2 and now it is the time to style the distribution a little more. Since the most of artwork that we have now is a derivative of the official wallpaper created by Richard Brown and Marcus Moeller there is a big portion of our styling done for the distribution. However, there are a few other elements that need your creative collaboration. Splash screens for a few programs that we use can be greatly enhanced by your artistic inspiration. Libre Office GIMP Scribus Amarok Calligra Krita Blender The idea of this contest is that we can integrate the new chosen wallpaper into these splash screens for the release of 12.2. Guidelines 1. Use the default wallpaper as part of the image. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1363018/test3.jpg 2. Refer to the official artwork guidelines in how to use logos for these different applications. 3. Restrict your creation to the sizes specified. 4. Provide the sources of your work if chosen. 5.

Hello Andi, Sorry for the top post. Also can you please post it to artwork list (I'm not registered). I'm not sure if someone replied this. I have an idea but I'm not sure if it's duable. Why don't we try to make new font? I saw the video of Jobs saying about he took classes about typography etc. So MacOSX has the most beautiful look and feel. Also Ubuntu made a font and there was a noise about it. I don't know how easy it is. A new font every 8 months? Or a new openSUSE font for 12.2? Just think about it. Thanks Stathis Στις 19/03/2012 06:24 μμ, ο/η andi robert έγραψε:

" A new font every 8 months" is unfortunately impossible. Developing a
fully utf8 compatible font is a very difficult and expensive
procedure. I don't think we as an Open Source organisation can afford
it.
Unlike a still image, or even a vector one which can be easily and
conveniently made with GIMP, fonts can only be made with specialised
fond tools. There is only one of those available under Linux atm, and
while it's quite good, it's also quite unstable. On top of that
developing a good digital font requires a lot of knowledge and
experience. Font has to "know" how to scale, how to get "bold" and
"condensed", and have an "italic" version, which rarely is made from
the same font, but rather is a totally new one altogether.
Currently I'm unaware of a single font developer who would do
something like an open font for free....
If you find one, please let us know right away ;)
Best Regards,
Eugene Trounev

I just rediscover this thread. No real submission were made, and I send the artwork for 12.2 Sunday, Coolo pick it, and the sr is now pending. So basically, we will have same splashscreens as in 12.1 with the new background. If changes are needed, here how to make it easier to handle, especially as factory will be entering in its freezing feature period. Find the splashscreen which contain a trouble. The same file exist in -art gitorious repository, clone it, make a fix in 12.2 submit a merge request against -art so -art maintainers can review it and merge it back. containing the bnc number you open for the occasion identify the file and the package open a bug in bugzilla againt openSUSE-branding developed at Base:System then identify the splash screen and say that a merge request against -art will exist for that bug. Put me on cc bruno at ioda-net (dot) ch This help and accelerate a lot, and will be the only way to get updates in factory soon. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Ambassador GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org
It sounds like this contest won't make it for this release. That is
fine. I think we can keep it up and give it more fire when 12.3 comes
out. I am sure that we can do something stronger and better for that
release.
