[opensuse-artwork] Call for artists / we need a branding package
Hi everybody, We (the community) were asked for help, so I think it would be best if we would get everything together and offer as much as we can! The issue at hand is nothing huge, but XRDP in openSUSE 11.1 is branded to be SLED, which is of course not the best thing. And as it stays it is the same in Factory at the moment. The maintainer of XRDP is busy with SLE releases and we were asked to provide help with some Artwork for this! What do you say? Can we help out here? Can we provide what is needed? Please jump in on https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=442290, fire up gimp, do some nice artwork. Thanks for participating Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org
Hello there! I'm pretty new in the OpenSuse community, but if someone can help me with this "branding" or point me to a document that describes what do you mean by that I am eager to help. Byez, Gregory Dominique Leuenberger wrote:

Gregory, thanks for your offer. A branding' package is basically only a replacement of graphics (and in some cases texts). For this specific case, when you use rdesktop to rdp to a openSUSE 11.1 machine, you're presented with the screen as shown on http://en.opensuse.org/Image:Screenshot-rdesktop_-_localhost.png As you can see, the information is 'slightly' wrong: The screen actually says SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop Remote desktop Connection even though I'm connecting to an openSUSE system (visible in the remaining logos on the screen). The bugreport https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=442290, deals with this issue, but the developers resources are limited and (obviously) focused on higher priorities (like not being able to login to RDP after connection established ;) ) For this reason the 'call for help' to the community: we should be able to provide a login screen stating that we connect to an openSUSE system, still fitting the entire look and feel.

Dear Dominique, thanks for your guidance. I clearly see the problem/task. I think I may free up some time on the next week for this job. I only have one question left to be answered: Where can I get existing branding design for OpenSUSE 11.1? I guess changing the SLED text to Opensuse is not enough. (If I'd use 11.1, I guess I could find it, but I'm still on OpenSUSE 11.0) I did not find any SVN links on the Wiki for the Artwork things. Also, I do not know the name of the Fonts that appear on the splash screens, and in every OpenSUSE artwork. Thanks again, and sorry for being such a trainee. Gregory Dominique Leuenberger wrote:
