Status of Design Suite
by Luya Tshimbalanga 15 Feb '13

15 Feb '13

Greetings Designers, I am currently working on revamping the wiki which needs more love[1]. Note the page is still in progress trying to properly formulate what Design Spin is all about. Since it is based from Live Media Desktop, the suite will take advantage of Gnome Shell with its color management. For F19 release, it would be nice to take advantage of the dynamic wallpapers. Feedback is welcome. Ref: ----- [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design_Suite

(non-fedora) design for www.kernel.org
by Konstantin Ryabitsev 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hi, Fedora design team! I apologize for a non-fedora request, but considering that we're "upstream" of Fedora, I figured it wouldn't be too frowned upon. Plus, I've been active with Fedora for so long, you guys are the first place I could think of to go to for a volunteer site design for kernel.org. :) If any of you have visited www.kernel.org lately, you'll notice that it looks like it was last revamped in 1995. I'm working on redoing the website, and as part of that effort I'd like to introduce a slightly less austere facelift. Perhaps some of you would like to lend me a hand? The following are some of the requirements: 1. People go to www.kernel.org to find out the latest kernel info, so the releases table seen on the front page must be above-fold if at all possible. This is really the core service of the site. 2. The design should use the default Linux Penguin logo somewhere prominent. We *are* the home of Linux. 3. The design should remain conservative and elinks-friendly. You'd be surprised how many hits we get from terminal browsers. 4. I think we should keep the existing yellow-white-blue colour scheme to preserve continuity. 5. "Site news" will be on its own page -- nobody really cares to have that on the front page. Other content will be updated and shrunk but remain largely similar. 6. I like the links-footer on https://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora, -- something like that would work very well for kernel.org. 7. It's going to be a statically-generated website using pelican ( http://docs.getpelican.com/en/3.1.1/) There is no active content anywhere, so all I'm looking for, really, is a very handy header and a very handy footer. :) If any of you are interested, please let me know. I would be happy to provide you with more information. I will be happy, of course, to credit the Fedora Design team on the site. Best, -- Konstantin Ryabitsev Linux Foundation, kernel.org Montréal, Québec

general Question to all Designers: What do you guys think about utilizing pictures generated with a microscope for Background and other icons?

Lack of things in Gimp
by Sylvia Sánchez 04 Feb '13

04 Feb '13

Hello everybody! I found that Gimp in Fedora has less functions that in other distributions (like Fuduntu or Ubuntu). In example, I can find video and animation edition, and a lot of scripts. Why is this happening? How can I solve it? Thank you very much! Lailah

Hello designers: Here is the updated design suite wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design_Suite The important stuff is the Graphic Group based on : https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design_Suite#Graphic_group The suite is based on Live Desktop which uses Gnome Shell and provides LibreOffice. For that reason, abiword and gnumeric are no longer default. Feedback welcome, Luya

Hi, Thank you! Can you reupload the XCF somewhere? http://www.sendspace.com/file/9nfpag, and I'll try attatching it as well... Also if you have a Fedora project account let me know I do have an account! it is here - https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/user/view/zheoffec -- Marco Scannadinari <marco(a)scannadinari.co.uk> PS I tried swapping out the current border with the one I submitted and it appears the links at the bottom are static and the shadow ends abruptly in places, so that means my border is either too big, or someone might have to edit the padding on the footer. Here is a screenshot: http://i3.minus.com/ibzOLyPbp89owZ.png
