#56: Request for multimedia icons

Type: icon request | Status: new

Now that the [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/FedoraStudio
FedoraStudio feature] is [https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/191
accepted by FESCo] we are in need of new icons.
The Audio&Video/Multimedia desktop menu is being categorized. For each
submenu entry we are requesting new icons. Some are pretty
straightforward, whereas some are more left to imagination.
Currently for the [http://oget.fedorapeople.org/multimedia-menus/ test
package], I borrowed icons from other projects. I will replace these icons
with the ones produced here.
Here is a list of what we need and some explanation:
* Capture&Import icon: This is a general group of applications for
capturing/importing all sorts of media: Audio streams, Video streams,
sound recording with a mic, ripping CD's DVD's, TV broadcasts...
* Creation icon: An icon for the top menu which will contain other media
creation applications listed below. Very open to imagination :)
* Digital processing icon: This group contains audio/video effect
applications. Synthesizer applications. An idea for the icon would be a
foot pedal musicians use (like a distortion pedal).
* Editors icon: Audio editors, video editors, soundfont editors...
Basically, applications that can be use existing data to create some
output.
* Jack icon: JACK (Jack Audio Connection Kit) using applications. These
are wide range applications, primarily used for audio creation. An audio
jack connector (like the one you plug into the electric guitar) is an idea
for the icon.
* MIDI icon: MIDI using applications. Again wide range, but a MIDI
keyboard sounds like an idea.
* Sequencer/Multitrack recorder icon: An icon for the group of multitrack
sequencers, digital audio workstations.
* Notation icon: Icon for the group of musical notation applications.
* Mixer icon: Group of software mixers. Like pulseaudio control, kmix,
gnome mixer...
* Output generation icon: Very wide range and quite open to imagination.
The applications that are covered by this group are audio/video streamers,
format changers, CD/DVD burners, subtitle editors. In terms of
functionality, this one is kind of opposite to the "Capture&Import" group.
* Tools icon: Helper applications that usually do not do anything with
multimedia data. Such as instrument tuner, metronome...
* Player icon: An icon for audio/video players group.
This makes 12 icons. I know it is a long list but is there a chance we can
have these by F-12?
Very many thanks!

It would be nice to have some graphics built that represent a simplified
overview of some complex fedora tasks to take the eye sting away from
pages of text processes. An idea for the packaging process perhaps:
- think of an oval football ground, where the viewer is standing at near
the foci of one end. She sees a path curving from past left extent of
vision, around to the right extent of vision. The viewpoint should be
above the ground, and the perspective should be apparent.
The breakdown is shown as graphical items rising out of the path, perhaps
with additional arrows to indicate flow of additional tasks / information:
{{{
- choose a software project
- start a template spec file
- gathering information
- understanding packaging guidelines
- configure local rpmbuild
- local build
- local rpmlint
- local package test (iteration over last few items)
- create package review bug
- - paths of new packagers taking tentative steps
- - paths of existing packagers indicating review of spec
- respond / improve package based on comments, iteration (circle)
- performing semi/reviews of other packages
- community approval of package
- cvs request / import
- build request (to successful build) iteration
- update system requests
- published package
- - bugs / feedback / updates iteration
}}}
Try to indicate the communication and community involvement during the
stages.
I have no idea how you would represent in nice graphic form any of those
items.
An image that fits into say 800x 600 (active content area for a 1024x768
display) could be a useful size, but might be too small for definition of
any step icons to be usable.
? Can the wiki provide imagemap like links that could jump to the specific
task detailed descriptions.

preupgrade is great for upgrading but it requires internet access. if you
have access to a DVD you should be able to upgrade too. we need a ui
design for an app to handle this.
<mizmo> wwoods: e.g., upgrading your system thru anaconda is SCARY
<mizmo> wwoods: because there's a lot of knobs you can turn to destroy
things
<mizmo> wwoods: but preupgrade is only used for upgrading, so i think it's
less scary
<wwoods> in my opinion the generate-kickstart bits of preupgrade oughtta
be on the DVD somewhere
<wwoods> such that you can pop in the DVD and launch.. something
<mizmo> wwoods: yeh! what might be nice is you pop in the dvd, and it asks
if you want to install or upgrade, you pick upgrade and it works similar
to preupgrade where u dont have to go thru anaconda's ui at all
<wwoods> that's trivial if the first stage runs on the system you're
trying to upgrade - we write a little note that says "HEY ANACONDA UPGRADE
THIS ONE"
<wwoods> IIRC that's really the only choice you need to make during
upgrade
<wwoods> probably there's three cases:
<wwoods> 1) no Fedora installed anywhere we can see. skip upgrade screen.
<wwoods> 2) exactly one Fedora install. Present "We're gonna upgrade this:
..." with a "No, I want to wipe and reinstall" button
<wwoods> 3) More than one. Same as 2), but with a "which system do you
wanna upgrade" dropdown.
<wwoods> honestly it would be really, really simple to have a "Launch
upgrade" helper app on the DVD
<wwoods> so when you insert the DVD a nautilus window is gonna pop up and
it'll have a bunch of things and one "Install Fedora" item
<wwoods> etc. wouldn't be hard but alas I don't have much (any) time for
preupgrade lately
<wwoods> buuut if you can help with some proposed UI / workflow stuff I
can get some tickets filed and roadmap it out
<wwoods> and hopefully I can find people who do have time

For a long time we've needed a standard (orset of) slide deck template for
folks making presentations about Fedora. Would be nice to have some simple
diagram templates in Inkscape as well that presenters can modify to their
needs.

at the last EMEA Ambassadors Meeting 20090722 we had the idea we want a
new T-Shirt Design for EMEA Users. This should be not Event specific and
more for allday usage. This idea could also be for "transformed" to NA,
LATAM, etc. later if wanted.

--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bugzilla_Desktop_Client
We are looking to write a client from scratch or modify the bug buddy
client to suit our needs. The target audience is primarily end users who
want to interactively report a bug (Excluding crashes etc detected by bug
buddy or abrt) on a system that is facing the problem.
Most of the bugs are against a top few components (kernel, firefox, yum
etc) and it is not reasonable to expect users to necessarily understand
the exact component (only source packages are listed in bugzilla). We can
collect the logs, hardware details etc and be more intelligent because it
is a desktop client. The challenge is to make the process very simple
while leaving enough room for other more expert users to report a bug as
well. We want the ability to report the bug against a specific component
if the user understands the details but the application itself is oriented
towards non technical users.
