So just in case this has not been done already, briefing the designers now would not be wrong. There's enough information available now to give them an idea of what Leap is about.
That way they would have enough time to come up with a good draft.
And a better one if the first one goes up in flames. ;)

There is a graphic design team for openSUSE.
Let's hope they have subscribed to this list. ;)

=== My initial brainstorm idea is to show someone leaping from 13.2 to 42.1
Maybe 13.2 would be represented by a collection of boulders. Possibly 42.1 would be represented by something like:
http://climb-utah.com/Moab/Files/delicate01.jpg (From http://climb-utah.com/Moab/delicate.htm)
Notice the solid stone base with an arch above it. At the top of the arch it appears to have a very stable landing place.
One could overlay "SLES 12" on top of the solid rock base, and "Tumbleweed" over the arch. The end result is a stable place to land. ===
In my mind there are tons of interesting ways to represent Leap.
I bet there are! For a creative mind this is like a dream come true. ;)

In the meantime, we know that there's a new website coming
I would mostly used was (from the community part) ... unfortunately. But we still have a mailing list at opensuse-artwork archives here http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-artwork/ could explain why, what we are here. presented at osc15 and available (draft) http://cyntss.github.io/opensuse-landing-page/ contributions welcomed here https://github.com/cyntss/opensuse-landing-page The 2 mains product have already a logo (proposal) and I guess it would not be rocket science to have a shade of green different for both, with maximizing the reuse of existing. It will not be that simple but the objective could be Have a Green1 for tumbleweed and Green2 for Leap. Building a branding set (the several package) can then "just" apply that color match + specific logo, and done. Afterward, only small corrections can be done. Jay : just a precision, having just another splash screen is not just click,clap and its done. Time to read some documentation about how plymouth work, and interact with systemd. and find some nice scripts and simple effects that make a difference. with a final appealing result for everybody...... -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Board, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
