[opensuse-artwork] Pixel Pool theme discussion: GreenWave
http://en.opensuse.org/Artwork:Pixel_Pool/11.1/GreenWave Proposed by Jimmac. "The goal is to build on the legacy of 11.0. Mix SUSE greens with dark grey. 11.1 should build on the visual heritage defined bu openSUSE 11.0. Vivid SUSE greens with dark grey complementary color." Any ideas or discussions related to this theme? Please provide them ;-). Any further mockups can be placed on the theme wiki page. -- Kevin "Yo" Dupuy - openSUSE Member Public Mail: <kevin.dupuy@opensuse.org> Meet Bob Barr - Libertarian for President - <http://www.BobBarr2008.com/> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org

This looks brilliant! I liked the waves in openSUSE 10.3 and your draft picks this idea and ports it to 11.1. I also like the light-spot enlightning the middle of the dark bars.

Although I like the geeko-only branding, we should have a look at the official styleguide wether the geeko head can be used without the openSUSE writing. What I am totally unhapy about is the very uncalm wallpapers. Is this likely to change? Greets, Andeas -- Skype: andreas.demmer ICQ: 103 924 771 http://www.andreas-demmer.de

Fully agreed. We have to have our own style, at least for each major-range.

I agree. it' s not calm and we should think about the possibility that people will place widgets on them. Maybe even place some at the default install (photoframe, clock)

Do you mean the high saturation/vividness of the wallpaper when you say uncalm? cheers -- Jakub Steiner <jimmac@gmail.com> http://jimmac.musichall.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org

I didn't comment on Andreas post because color selection is probably problem that graphic design can't solve without asking many users. My new monitor is of good quality and colors are quite vivid, not calm, but with the old one I have no problems. It was good quality once, but as it is CRT, it lost a bit of color saturation with a time. I can imagine similar opinions calm, not calm, good, etc, depending on users output device. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org
So of all of these themes, I like a number of things about this one. First, the idea of following a visual heritage built on the 11.0 release throughout the 11 series is a good one. Although we should to some changes to keep the theme fresh, I like the changes done to this theme. Second, the overall darker green color is awesome, and makes the theme look great. The wallpaper looks real nice, personally I don't care which one gets put as default. And the darker panel following the gray theme is nice, and pulls in the different theme elements together. And finally, smaller and spaced panel icons is great! If that's technically possible in KDE or GNOME, no matter what our final theme choice is, let's do it! -- Kevin "Yo" Dupuy - openSUSE Member Public Mail: <kevin.dupuy@opensuse.org> Meet Bob Barr - Libertarian for President - <http://www.BobBarr2008.com/> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org
