Hi Maxine,
Here's the design feedback we discussed today in IRC:
- For reference, the banner design style we're trying to standardize on
now is something like this:
https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/raw-
attachment/ticket/242/cloudsig-banner.png In the wiki, it looks like
this:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG
- It looks like your background gradient is a bit lighter / desaturated
compared to that one, which is why I think you went with dark blue instead
of white for the text. You should use the gradient in the cloud banner
background, and also go with white text. You can snag the gradient for it
from the source file, available here:
https://fedorahosted.org/design-
team/attachment/ticket/242/cloudsig-banner.svg
- The resolution of the cloud one is 468x60; it looks like yours is
728x90. so you will want to scale it down too. An easy way to do this is
to copy/paste the background gradient rectangle from the cloud sig SVG
into your SVG, select it, then go to File > Document Properties in
Inkscape and click on 'resize page to content' and hit the button in
there.
- It doesn't look like the font for the ? and ! in the bubbles is
Comfortaa - you'll want to update those to be Comfortaa.
- "IRC" and "Support SIG" are split on different sides of the Fedora
logomark. The logo standard for Fedora groups is to have the full group
name to the right of the Fedora mark in the same size (see
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/UsageGuidelines#Fedora_Sub-
Logos:_Standard_uses_of_the_Fedora_Logo_with_other_elements ). So you'll
want to adjust that.
- We do usually have a mirror effect on the group logo on the right. I can
walk you through how to do this in Inkscape after you've got the rest
covered.
Thanks, this is a great initial design!
