Good.

I think those are excellent -- what about a logo that has the release date instead of the days until release? Just a thought -- but I think those look great.

Nice, but... what happens if something goes bad and the release is delayed?

(playing the devil's advocate :-p)

After the countdown does negative, it shows a blushing geeko who looks a bit like Coolo ;).

Hello all!

I found out that Ubuntu has nice way to promote their new release - small banner which informs how many days are left before new version is out. See http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown for details. This banner also links to information page about distribution features and _mainly_ to beta releases which can attract more testers. I think it would be nice if openSUSE had something similar. I would created it by myself but unfortunately I don't have time right now.

Here's my mockup... based off of the proposed 11.0 theme

Nice, but that "New!" is not much readable. :-(

I agree. Just remove the "New!" word and it will be perfect :) Everyone knows that we are promoting new release and not the old one :) Also try to make smaller version (like 128x128) to see how it looks. Maybe you will have to remove "Available ..." text and maybe URL (remember, image links to opensuse page so URL is somehow redundant). -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o Package Maintainer Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9, CR prusnak[at]suse.cz http://www.suse.cz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
