[opensuse-artwork] openSUSE 12.3 concept proposal: grow
Hi all, as mentioned earlier, Richard and I are working on a concept proposal for 12.3. It's called grow (because together we grow ;)). http://marcusmoeller.ch/share/oS/12_3/grow_header.png It is meant to be used with the new 'produkt'-based KDE Plasma theme, created by shumski, tittiatcoke and others, but also works well with other DEs like GNOME or Xfce. http://marcusmoeller.ch/share/oS/12_3/grow_04.png http://marcusmoeller.ch/share/oS/12_3/grow_04.svg (to play around with) It reflects the idea of a new color set, using green combined with dark colors. Hope you enjoy it ;) Greets Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org

I like it, though I'd like to suggest a bit of a texture on the curves, also more contrast on the openSUSE text, as the colours are right between subtle and strong.

Are you able to rework the svg, acccording to your suggestions? Greets Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org
I like it. I'm also a fan of dark themes as they are easier on my eyes in the late evenings. Good work! : ) On Thu, Dec 6, 2012 at 5:10 AM, Marcus Moeller <mail@marcusmoeller.ch> wrote:

Hehe, but don't be afraid. A light and a dark color scheme is planned. Greetings Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org

I'm not working on that, but you could of course ask šumski. Greets Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org

It would be nice to "release" often to get feedback more often. That way we can see progress, add comments in text and graphic, and work together, instead of doing all work and then listen comments on "final" work. What happened to KDM login screen in 12.2 is result of silent work, keeping everyone out of the loop. When it was finally done it was too late to do anything about it, and it was not the most beautiful login screen SUSE had. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org

Rajko, I can't accept that comment about the kdm theme for 12.2 Months before the release, the fixing all pending bugs concerning dropped features was started by commenting and asking feedback on bugzilla. At the end 3 needinfo open, and guess what, no answer. Then the package was release as it was. -- 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

Bugzilla is good, but too far from the people's mind. Don't expect that people will discuss in bugzilla [1], so it would be recommendable to see with marketing people to expand their services on queries about software :) (Yes, that will slow down process, but will give better results.) It is worth to note that low participation in Factory testing is another reason for no answers, but that is not easily fixable with current workflow :( [2] ___________________________________________________________________ [1] Bugzilla has an intrusive query in order to create account, has archaic interface loaded with functions that only trained eye can handle, has communication interface at the level of forum's linear layout minus eye candies, ie. no threading. If you need feedback on artwork use: * opensuse forums, * mail list, * Facebook * G+ * Flickr etc. [2] Beta testers should be on a safe side, at least considering booting, but I hit 2 broken RC, just before GM and had whole lot more downloads that don't install, or when installed I can't fix (and I'm not without skills to do that). -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org

You should have cc'ed šumski as mentioned before. I am not involved in that process. Greets Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks for stepping in. I guess Rajko and some others wondered if there will only be a dark color scheme available. From what I remember of our discussions on IRC, you are working on both, right?

Yes, i am working on a dark colorscheme, besides the two light/classic variants already available. On the subject of your concept, i'll look into QML wallpapers available with 4.10, and see could we make one out of yours :-)

I meant collaboration in general that needs more peer view into what each other are doing. It is easier to spot problems when more eyes are looking at the solutions which leads to early redirection, if necessary, and saves a lot of work that may go in something that people will not accept. I, and more others, may not be able to provide final solution, but it is sure that we can give ideas and comments, in both visual and textual way. There is not many perfect eyes when you check people that look for a long periods of time on a computer screen. There is so many ways that eyes can go bad, with so many levels of badness and combination of elementary defects in optics and sensors, that is literally impossible to satisfy everyone, but it is possible to query as many people as possible to find out which theme is best for majority. Also, there are facts about human brain that are valid for each person (that has some of it). What eyes see is subject to the interpretation by the brain, and it works similar for majority of people. Grow in its initial proposal with darkness and low contrast is failing to convey hope, birth, new start, it is more like dark and low visibility as permanent status. If you don't believe me, recall what each visual art piece, including movies use to create sense of hopelessness and evil reign (dark, grayish, low contrast), and what is used to tell that heroic struggle for good is successful (bright, colorful, high contrast). -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org
Hi all,
as mentioned earlier, Richard and I are working on a concept proposal for 12.3. It's called grow (because together we grow ;)).

It is meant to be used with the new 'produkt'-based KDE Plasma theme, created by shumski, tittiatcoke and others, but also works well with other DEs like GNOME or Xfce.
