[opensuse-artwork] Need design help
by Jos Poortvliet 20 May '12

20 May '12

Heya all, I'll be printing a number of nice, glossy brochures for artists using openSUSE. If this works out we can improve on it and do something more with the concept of having non-openSUSE projects endorsing us at our booths. But for now, I have added 2 openSUSE pages to the last pages of the whole document (below a cut-down version of the document). I have text, images - and even a quote from the Krita maintainer suggesting artists that openSUSE is the best out there :D What is less good is that my design skills - or lack there-of - are very visible. last two pages will be the inside- and outside of the last page of the brochure (it's a 24 page small book, a4 size). I need somebody to make them look pretty. They can be redesigned any way anyone of you see fit... Anyone willing to make this look a bit better? Again, JUST care about the *last two pages*. it would even be fine to send me a PDF or even image with just the last 2 pages as output back - I can then do the change myself on the original document (which is 50 MB, hence this smaller one). http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29347181/about-krita-oS.odt It would be nice to have it sometime this week... :D Thanks, Jos -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] Splash Screen Contest
by andi robert 07 May '12

07 May '12

Splash Screens Contest Hello artists and enthusiasts. We have been hard at working with our artwork for 12.2 and now it is the time to style the distribution a little more. Since the most of artwork that we have now is a derivative of the official wallpaper created by Richard Brown and Marcus Moeller there is a big portion of our styling done for the distribution. However, there are a few other elements that need your creative collaboration. Splash screens for a few programs that we use can be greatly enhanced by your artistic inspiration. Libre Office GIMP Scribus Amarok Calligra Krita Blender The idea of this contest is that we can integrate the new chosen wallpaper into these splash screens for the release of 12.2. Guidelines 1. Use the default wallpaper as part of the image. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1363018/test3.jpg 2. Refer to the official artwork guidelines in how to use logos for these different applications. 3. Restrict your creation to the sizes specified. 4. Provide the sources of your work if chosen. 5. Present/submit your artwork to http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Splashscreen Sizes (please use a standard resolution of 75 dpi) LibreOffice 440x480 http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design GIMP 320x480 http://www.gimp.org/ Scribus 391x295 http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Promotion_material Amarok 550x412 http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/File:Amarok_logo.svg Calligra 440x286 http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Logos Krita 440x286 http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archivo:Krita_Application_Logo.svg Blender 501x282 https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender/release/datafiles/… Only work the area at the bottom.

[opensuse-artwork] openSUSE Stickers
by Bryen M Yunashko 26 Apr '12

26 Apr '12

Folks, Currently, we distribute two kinds of stickers at booth events. One is the big black circle sticker and the other is a system label sticker. These stickers don't really move much. At some point, we'll run out of the stock and will need to order new ones. Don't know exactly Jos's plans on this, but we should go ahead and start thinking of designs. Some observations: 1. The stickers are very openSUSE-centric. Meaning if you're already a fan of openSUSE, you'll want the stickers. But if you're not, you are unlikely to take a sticker. We rely on these stickers to help promote openSUSE on the street. So, I think these stickers should be created in a way that is attractive that makes someone say "Oh this sticker is so cool I want it on my laptop even if I don't use openSUSE yet." 2. This past weekend, several people asked me if I had stickers that had KDE or GNOME on it. So, maybe we should create stickers with both KDE + openSUSE logos and/or GNOME + openSUSE logos. With some line like "KDE: Powered on openSUSE!" Let's see some creative designs. Think outside the box. If we come up with something really cool, we can convince Jos to get them printed up.

[opensuse-artwork] Improving the default wallpaper
by Eugene Trounev 15 Apr '12

15 Apr '12

Dear OpenSUSE artwork members, At our last IRC gathering we have chosen a new default wallpaper for the next release of the OS, and I took on a task of preparing it for the release. I took a shot at it and I think it's looking a little better. Now there aren't that many changes done, but for what I did here is an account with explanations: a) the overall color tone was adjusted - the original had a nice "old photo" look to it due to slightly washed palette used; very nice touch in itself, but I'm not sure we want a brand new release to look somewhat "washed" b) texture was added to compensate for Inkscape gradient deficiency (Inkscape can not do perfect gradients, using step algorithm instead) c) the shapes were smoothed out - purely cosmetic touch to make them look even more lightray-like There may be a few more tweaks I'll put on this, or Andy may come with an idea to make it even better. Please let me know what you think. Best Regards, Eugene Trounev [it-s]

[opensuse-artwork] software.opensuse.org no-screenshot image
by Marcus Moeller 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

Hi all. I have noticed that http://software.opensuse.org has been reworked, and now also shows screenshots of some applications. Great ;) Sadly for applications where no screenshot is available, a Debian logo with the text 'No Screenshot avaiable' is displayed atm. I have reworked the image to show a geeko logo instead: http://marcusmoeller.ch/share/oS/misc/no_screenshot_opensuse.png http://marcusmoeller.ch/share/oS/misc/no_screenshot_opensuse_big.png Could one please be so kind and replace it?
