Request to join the Design Team
by Adam Saunders
Hello,
I was working on Ticket #214
(https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/214), and the reporter
recently closed the ticket, satisfied with my work. May I please join
the Design Team?
Onyeibo did offer constructive criticism of how the image I made could
be improved; however, the reporter was satisfied with it. I'd be happy
to make those improvements if the Team would like to see them before
making a decision.
Thank you very much for your consideration.

Gee, thanks for the shirt folks :-p
by T.C. Hollingsworth
I just got the "I unpacked F19" shirt in the mail as thanks for my QA efforts.
I decided to wear it while going out with friends tonight, and of course I
ended up having to try to explain what the whole Schrödinger's Cat experiment
is about (not to mention what this Fedora thing is) at least a dozen times. >:-(
Seriously though, my roommate (who is far more artsy than I) said she absolutely
loves your kitty drawing (and even tried to steal my shirt from me!), so I just
wanted to pass her kudos along to whoever drew it.
Thanks for all your awesome work!

I can see the argument either way. If we do go for two backgrounds, it seems
like the locked screen is a place where we can be more flashy (for example,
making the Fedora logo more prominent) in a way which would be distracting
on the desktop background.

fedora.next visualization help?
by Matthew Miller
Hello design people! It looks like Fedora.next is going to be A Thing --
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora.next/boardproposal
With the integration of Stephen Gallagher's three-target-products idea, I
think this has moved beyond the previous visualization (which involved me
drawing concentric circles). And the link above is only the board-level
view; when we get down to the technical details it gets even more
complicated. Can you help me paint a picture (and maybe through doing that
refine how everything really fits together)?

Is it an svg bg? Maybe we can just pull out the pink color and make it a
grey or blue fan.

Plans for Nuancier: A Fedora Wallpapers Voting App
by Toshio Kuratomi
At flock, a few people talked about a new web application for voting
on wallpapers. Jenneh produced some mockups and we discussed how we
might go about implementing them in time to do wallpaper voting for
F20 or F21 in the new app.
For those new or returning to this, I'm posting this as a short
summary of where various bits are and what's currently done and (/me
crosses fingers) hopefully achievable:
One idea at flock was to have something based on the mockups
deployable in time for the wallpaper voting. At flock we talked about
whether we could create something that just implemented the parts that
made the ballot and voting smooth for people using the application and
worrying about the rest of the app (notably, the admin interface and
submitting the
wallpapers) until later so that we could get it out in time for the
next election. This would be somewhat tight scheduling but pingou's
been working on some code and he thinks we can hit that deadline.
After the initial rush is off, we would want to try to finish the
other parts of the interface and release all of that as nuancier. We
would also start to think about how to share code between nuancier and
the new elections application that fchiulli has been working on at
this time -- whether that would be to merge the two together or to
move some code into a library that either application could access...
We're not sure precisely whether tight or lose coupling of the two is
the best plan but there's definitely room to share some of the
implementation.
We currently have two repos of direct concern to the application:
* https://github.com/fedora-infra/nuancier
* https://github.com/fedora-infra/nuancier-lite
The nuancier repo has the mockups. I think we're eventually going to
want to merge everything into this repo.
The nuancier-lite repo has pingou's work to implement the minimal
interface that we'll need if we're going to deploy in time for F20
voting.
There's also the new elections code (rewritten from TurboGears1 to
flask) if anyone wants to consider sharing code/theming/etc -- but
that's a little ways off yet (we won't be merging anything in time for
F20's wallpaper election). It lives here:

Different Backgrounds for the Lock Screen vs the desktop
by Ryan Lerch
The new GNOME shipped with fedora 20 has the awesome new ability to set
different backgrounds for both the lock screen/shield and the normal
regular desktop background.
Currently in f20 alpha TC4, we set the old f19 default background for
the desktop, and a completely different pink, fan style design for the
lock screen. IMHO, the defaults should behave the same as the f19,
setting the default background for both.
thoughts?
cheers,
ryanlerch
