I shaped a new alternative...

Im working more to refine the DVD cover. Text changes are welcome as well as translations (if needed) I changed the outdated GNOME screen with one featuring the new theme, centered some elements, put KDE and GNOME logos (can be removed if needed without ruining the rest design). Waiting for more feedback :) On PNG: http://ragecryx.googlepages.com/openSUSE_11.2_DVDWrap_NEWTESTy.png On SVG (for making changes): http://ragecryx.googlepages.com/openSUSE_11.2_DVDWrap_v4_test.svg I just wander if printing sleeves with rounded corner is possible. So for printing convenience it may be turned into non-rounded. Anyway, I think that for a mass distribution (like on install fests) its a very nice design. Design can also be edited by local groups to include their homepage, mailing list or any other way of communication. PS. Working on some fancy presentation templates as well ;) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thanks for your time, George Koutsikos ragecryx(a)yahoo.gr or "reddaygr" on IRC ___________________________________________________________ Χρησιμοποιείτε Yahoo!; Βαρεθήκατε τα ενοχλητικά μηνύματα (spam); Το Yahoo!

There is GNU software in Solaris; it is not GNU/Solaris. There is Gnu software in AIX; it is not GNU/AIX. I am a purist. The kernel is the OS and everything else runs on the kernel. It is Linux. In our case it is openSUSE/Linux, NOT openSUSE/GNU/Linux. I am an openSUSE ambassador, not a GNU/Linux ambassador. That is a different mailing list. I have been on this mailing list for less than a week and 90% of the bandwidthe is consumed by this thread. Let it go. Go preach to a different choir, I know my relegion. Stop trying to convert me. If I wanted to prosteletize for Richard Stallman I woul be on a GNU mailling list. My two cents! K. R.
