- Countdown banner for openSUSE Comminity Week How about creating a countdown banner for openSUSE Comminity Week as we did for the release of 11.1. http://counter.opensuse.org/11.1/small.en.png I don't know exactly how I can create such a banner, but IIRC, Pascal created the one for the release of 11.1. If we have such a countdown banner, don't you think we can spread the word all over the web with it ?
@Pascal
I remember you worked on preparing counter.o.o for the release of 11.1. http://lists.opensuse.org/archive/opensuse-marketing/2008-10/msg00043.html
Can we create a new counter banner or image for the 'Week' and put it somewhere on counter.o.o ?
Mmmmyeah, we could :)
What we'd need to do is:
- - update the three PNGs for the background, which currently contain "11.1"
- - if we want translations, we need to collect them from somewhere
(either this list or poke on opensuse-translation@, they're very helpful
there) -- not sure we absolutely need translations though
I made a first hack (Jimmac made the original background, my inkscape
and designer skills are near 0 ;)):

I'm not sure I really like it like that, the upper part is too packed
with text. And I'd also need to do more inkscape hacking for the medium
and small sized ones.
Of course, if our designer hero can come up with something better... :D
(but please with similar bounding boxes, or I have to adapt a lot of
metrics in the script that renders the "n days to go" part)
Not 100% sure about all the translations either, some of them were
translations of "n days until available", which doesn't work for
Community Week.
What text should be shown instead of the "Out now!" that is used for
distro versions ?
Once we're OK with the design, I'll push it on counter.o.o (with updates
every hour).
cheers
