Might be interesting to tie this into the F20 alpha wallpaper... 10 x 2 = 20... e.g. like inkscaper's design? http://inkscaper.fedorapeople.org/Fedora20/mockup/F20-mockup-XX-5.png

Just a quick reminder that the next anniversary is approaching fast!
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/advisory-board/2012-August/011809....
It would be great to get some press around this one since we missed out on the Fedora Community anniversary. It is less than 4 weeks away now.
I know some people had plans to do something around this milestone but haven't heard anything lately (although I don't really keep close tabs on what is going on here so I may have missed lots of stuff).

I know it may sound stupid, but Fedora is 10, so how about trying to switch the colour scheme? Instead of white on blue background, blue on white [or light] background? IMHO, the XX concept works perfectly, so I tried a couple of drafts based on it just to explain what I mean. sam_

Ooh, I like these! The only thing is the plain white I think could be grunged up or given shadows/gradients/texture in the corners so it looks intentional. Otherwise white might look like the screen froze kind of, if you know what I mean?
Are you still online? We're having a meeting to discuss the F20 alpha wallpaper in 6 minutes in #fedora-design on irc.freenode.net!

This is okay for the alpha (and looks great), but think the brightness is pretty startling for an everyday background.

Thank you, I'm glad you like it! Anyway during the irc meeting another concept has been chosen, below are the links to what I came up with last night. Hope some may be interesting. sam_

You folks really rock. All these ideas are beautiful. My favorite in this case is the base one though, it is very clean. The splotches unfortunately make me think my display is dirty which is a testament to how well done they are but they distract my brain. :)

Hi,
I'd like to suggest we adopt this wallpaper created by Samuel for F20 alpha:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/100882866/F20-wp8-2048_1536.png
It's the reflection of a collaboration between Samuel, Alexander, and myself as well as many of you who were in #fedora-design while we were iterating on ideas. It also seems to have a lot of fans on the list.
What do you think?

Love it!!!

I really like the basic design, but am not sure about the splotches which make me want to wipe the screen obsessively. Maybe that's just me. (I'm gonna set my own background to a boring neutral gray anyway, so my vote might not count for much.)

It's a fair point, this feedback is good and I know John had the same concern, but:
- I want to put preference on design team member's opinions on this. - It's for an alpha - really just a placeholder before we have the release name chosen. It's not a final. - We need something yesterday.
I hope this is okay. We'll be more cautious about this kind of texture use for the final design and in the future.

I've been using both the clean version and the blotchy version for a while now and my initial reaction was pretty negative about the blotchy version. My brain just saw a dirty display but after a short time it became comfortable to me. I still like the clean version best but the others don't really bother me now that my brain is trained to expect what it is seeing.

It wasn't chosen when we had our two brainstorming meetings and came up with this. It just wasn't ready in time, we don't have time now to make another one.

For Alpha, it's a good compromise for now and yes, it's placeholder (and nice one).

Well, we need it today. In case he would not be able to do it, I can do the SPEC file part and help a bit but I'd need final export of WPs in the desired resolution/format (and I expect also the night version). Is anybody able to do it?

These are great! But, I've already submitted non-animated version for packaging (and it's close to midnight here). Since we're a bit in haste, I fear this will have to wait till short post-alpha, but I'll certainly use these as soon as I can!

Yeah, I'm kind of busy, so I started working on the backgrounds shortly after you guys had the first group of images in order to be prepared to do it more quickly after the alpha wp is finalized... Somehow I forgot to notice the list that I'm working on it, sorry about that. Would be nice though if there were at least another person working on the wallpaper packages with me so that we don't run into this kind of problem again ;-)
