[opensuse-artwork] IMPORTANT - Proposed List of 12.3 Artwork Changes
Hello everyone Eugene has already started the conversation about this subject of undertaking a plan to progressively re-brand the distribution. Given some conversations during the openSUSE Summit, we would like to become more specific about the changes that we "can" make for openSUSE 12.3 whenever this version comes out. Next release: 1 Move away from svg and use raster for wallpaper (Using Flickr artwork pool to draw images) 2 Flickr is used, make sure that the uploader is responsible for the correct liscensing of the image (Provide information about branding people's artwork) 3 Create upload guidelines for artwork contributors (Although there are some guidelines about this, there is no specific place for copyright in the wiki) 4 Change default font to OPEN SANS. (This font family is extensive and looks extra sharp on both KDE and GNOME, use full rgb subpixel rendering on KDE by default) 5 Change plymouth to a progress bar with a sparkling end (per request of some contributors and to keep a simple elegant understanding of the boot process, more details to come) 7 Change KDE splash screen to match Plymouth 8 Keep default splash screens for applications These are steps that can change with not a lot of effort. Please let us know of any extra ideas that could be taken into consideration for the next release.

Umm, just out of curiosity, why would you want to move away from svg to raster? isn't SVG a far more flexible format? Bryen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org
To be honest, I've never dealt with raster so I looked it up. From what I'm reading, is this really a good idea? http://www.graphicdesignforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41 On Tue, Sep 25, 2012 at 7:07 PM, Bryen M Yunashko <suserocks@bryen.com> wrote:
