Hiya,
I updated the cheatcube to use dnf instead of yum. Could someone please
take a look and put it up on the wiki here:(or give me a "go ahead" to put
it up)

#438: Redesign Anaconda install banners
----------------------------+----------------------------------
Reporter: pidgornyy | Owner:
Type: Release Artwork | Status: new
Priority: medium | Severity: Moderately Involved
Keywords: | Blocked By:

----------------------------+----------------------------------
* Deadline / Release milestone: none
* Description:
The Anaconda banners are almost the first thing a new user sees when he
decides to try Fedora. Currently the banners don't look very welcoming,
but rather ugly compared to the rest of Fedora's beautiful artwork (and
compared to banners from other distributions). No offence against their
creator(s), but the following things should really be improved:
- No overuse of the Fedora logo font, Comfortaa. Comfortaa may look good
for headings, but it's used for *all* the text on the banners, which looks
unprofessional and simply ugly.
- No sudden colour change in the middle of the text, like on the make-
fedora-better banner. Either add outline or shadows to the text, or don't
allow text to overlap with pictures.
- No inconsistent distances between lines of text (present on all
banners).
- No inconsistent placing of images (compare the LibreOffice logo and the
Rhythmbox loudspeaker).
- No URLs starting with a capital letter.
- Replace Beefy with something (the current release's logo?).
- (Maybe generate the banners programmatically depending on locale?
Currently the text is embedded into the images, which makes it a bit
difficult to edit it for inexperienced contributors).
Ever since these banners appeared in Anaconda in Fedora 19, I was hoping
they'd be changed soon, but see no progress yet. Other distributions make
good use of the banners in their installation, informing the user about
new features in the release, what software is being installed onto the new
system, how to navigate the desktop environment (the banners appear at the
very end of the installation process, when we already know what desktop
environment was selected for installation), where to get help (this we
have already) and other little tips regarding the distribution. I will be
attaching installer banners from Ubuntu and Xubuntu.
We should agree on a design pattern that is used in all banners. It
includes a fixed font, font size, line distance and margins. I will attach
my proposal, but keep in mind that I am not a designer. Please suggest
something, too.
Another consideration would be to make the banners larger. There is a lot
of wasted space on the installation progress screen. Larger banners
(similar to *buntu) would allow us to put more information into them, for
example screenshots of some popular software that is bundled with the
Fedora image that is currently being installed.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the Fedora installation process
2. Complete all required steps and hit "Begin installation"
3. The banners start to appear at the bottom of the screen
Benefit for Fedora:
Improve aesthetics of Fedora, pleasing the eyes of all users. Newcomers
are more likely to like Fedora when they are greeted with beautiful
banners in the first few minutes they spend with Fedora.

= phenomenon =
Hi I'm Fale an Italian Packager and Ambassador,
In the last few months, robyduck stepped off it's role of being in charge
of the Italian community (reachable using it's url fedoraonline.it or the
it.fedoracommunity.org one). I succeeded Robert in this task.
= reason =
Since the website graphics is pretty old style, I'm working on give to the
website a new look (as well as doing some technical improvement) and in
the process I noticed that the current logo seems to be not 100% compliant
with the guidelines (maybe it was when it was created, or maybe I
misunderstood the logo guidelines), so I think it could be a good occasion
to check if it's ok or if a new one has to be created.
= recommendation =
The new website look has already lost the white bar near the logo (is now
plain Fedora blue) and white/yellow "window" with the penguin inside.
I was looking for a transparent-based png/svg with a text similar to the
current one (probably with different fonts/alignments to be compliant with
the logo regulation).
Thanks a lot,
fale

I guess something quite scalable - so it can be used as a favicon and also
maybe on the project's homepage etc.

openQA is a web application. See [https://github.com/os-
autoinst/openQA/issues/536 upstream ticket] - this is at least for use as
a favicon but probably there are other places it would be nice to have a
distro-neutral project icon.

#199: CSS and logo for Ask Fedora
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: sundaram | Owner: nobody
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: major | Component: Other Artwork

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Ask Fedora is a community edited knowledge base, a forum oriented towards
just questions and answers. A test instance is running at
http://ask01.dev.fedoraproject.org:8888/questions/
Upstream css file is at
http://fpaste.org/FdSm/raw/
If anyone is interested, let me know and I can make you a admin for the
test instance and you can experiment with the css via the admin settings
which allows for a custom css file which overrides parts of the default
css file as necessary.
A logo would also be nice since we want to promote this site without the
restrictions associated with the Fedora logo

Hi,
I've been working on a small website which I aim to call "This week in
Fedora". The idea being to visualize what community members are doing
using fedmsg and datagrepper as source of information.
Current version can be found at:
http://ambre.pingoured.fr/thisweekinfedora/
It could use a little more Fedora theme as you can see, so if someone has
ideas please let me know.
Thanks

#374: UX feedback on fedmenu
-----------------------------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: ralph | Owner:
Type: UX/Interaction Research and Design | Status: new
Priority: medium | Severity: Moderately

Blocking: | Blocked By:
-----------------------------------------------+---------------------------
I [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-
team/2015-February/007092.html wrote to the list] about this back in
February, but @mattdm [https://github.com/fedora-infra/fedmenu/issues/4
filed a ticket on the project] to touch base with the design team again,
which is smart. It probably could use another round of conversation.
Note that we are
[https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Infrastructure/FY16_frontend
almost done installing the shim] on all of our apps, which is *awesome*
but it doesn't mean that we're locked into the way that it current looks,
feels, or behaves at all. The shim just includes the js resource and
makes a call to initialize it. We can rewrite the js/css to do anything
we like (even if that something is "nothing"). :)
Questionnaire answers:
* Timeline (when do you need the mockups / research data by? Is there a
release or specific timeline you're targeting?)
No specific timeline. I'd like to evolve this chrome over time.
* Who's the developer writing the code? (IRC nick + email + wiki profile
page URL)
threebean, ralph(a)fp.o, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ralph
* Are you trying to make a pre-existing app better? We will work with you
to determine the best methodologies to get you to that goal.
Kind of. See more below.
* What is the application name?
fedmenu
* How can we access it? (URL or package name / installer link, test user
login information, screenshots, etc.)
There is a demo page at http://threebean.org/fedmenu
It is already deployed on some apps:
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Infrastructure/FY16_frontend
* Give us an elevator pitch for this application - What problem does it
solve? What does it do, why would someone use it?
It aims to give a common feel to all our FI web applications with as
little developer effort as possible. (We should work to do the high-
effort things next).
* Who uses this application? For example, is it aimed primarily at
developers? Is it a command line tool used on headless servers? Is it an
interactive web application aimed at desktop users with non-expert
technical expertise?
Any visitor to Fedora web applications. I think these are primarily
contributors.. but they are contributors of all kinds.
* What are the main competitors to your app?
Two that I can think of:
1) a full on redesign of all of our apps individually that gives them a
common look and feel (huge effort)
2) a rewrite of all of our apps into one app that has a unified look and
feel (huge effort)
* Are you trying to build a brand-new application?
Kinda. It is a javascript shim that is kind of like its own application.
But it is small and client-side only and different from all our other apps
in the usual ways.
* Is there any testing or development code available? How can we access
it? (URL or package name / installer link, test user login information,
screenshots, etc.)
Check out
1) https://github.com/fedora-infra/fedmenu for the source
2) http://threebean.org/fedmenu/ for a demo
