[ubuntu-art] The list of stuff to do!

Wed Sep 28 09:38:17 CDT 2005

Alrighty.

Since this list was kindly posted, displaying what needs to be done, and since 
we really need to do something, I've gone through the list whilst browsing 
http://art.ubuntu.com, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/gallery and 
http://www.gnome-look.org and added possible items to add or use as 'fillers' 
for stuff we don't get to finish.

This is absolutely nothing definite, but, nonetheless a list of some pretty 
good stuff of which I certainly wouldn't mind seeing some stuff in 
Breezy. :o)

Cheers, and kind regards to everyone.

Note: I've basically gone through this, browsed GNOME-Look.org, the artwork on ubuntuforums.org and art.ubuntu.com for possible candidates and added them and their respective URLs the list where appropriate. This is just a suggestion for possible choices, simply because the deadline is in fact tomorrow, and we really need to do something! As soon as possible.

Alrighty, happy browsing.

#
#Wallpapers
#=================
#Calender:
#	The six calender wallpapers should have a 
#	common red thread - maybe even a history.
#

Not sure who exactly wanted to do these, though I saw that Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen had some nice ideas.
Anyone else?

#
#Shipped:
#	Three or four _really_ different wallpapers. 
#	Not just the ubuntu logo in different layouts.
#	Maybe targeting different user groups. Suggested
#	types of wallpapers:
#		- Children (Colours, cute cartoons. As a last resort we could use one from Edubuntu)
#		- Teenagers (Go for cool factor. See fx. http://art.ubuntu.com/images/backgrounds/Ubuntu-UbuntuGlasses_1600x1200.jpg)
#		- Abstract (like http://art.ubuntu.com/download/backgrounds/ubuntu/3/swirls.svg)
#		- Realistic (a reworked photo or something)

Alright, I'll give this a go. All of the following are either in 1600x1200 (thus resizeable to smaller versions) or in SVG:
		Children:

#
#Desktop Theme
#=================
#Whether or not a whole theme is likely to be accepted for Breezy is
#questionable. Maybe we should stick to Andys icons for Breezy. If
#we do want to create one we need the following
#
#	 - Metacity Theme (Window borders)
#		I suggest Pilgrim 
#		(see http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13305)
#
#	- GTK Theme (Controls)
#		Engine should be Clearlooks. Tweak gtkrc.
#
#	- Icon Theme
#		Humility, Andy Fitzsimon.
#		 ? Does he/you want a revision team or help.
#
#
#GDM Theme
#=================
# ? Defer
#

Other suggestions to be added (there can be several shipped, IIRC):
	'Ubuntu GNU/Linux Greeter': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=23920
	'BluBuntu': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=28852
	'Ubuntu-Smooth-GDM': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=28939
	'GDM Ubuntix butterfly theme': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=26937
	'Ubuntu Human User-list': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=22926
	'Ubuntu World': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=24719

#
#GNOME Splash
#=================
# ? Who did the one for Hoary ?
#

Currently only as a mockup. A full screen splash (can this be even done, technically?):
	http://img344.imageshack.us/my.php?image=breezysplash018vz.png

Otherwise, if we don't want to stick with the one from Hoary:
	'Ubuntu World': http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=23943
	'chocolate splash screen - ubuntu':  http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=18027

#Forums/Webpages
#=================
# ? Should reflect default breezy theme (out of our scope)

#BEFORE BREEZY RELEASE (2005-10-13)
#**********************************
#
#Flyers
#======
#Create flyers to hand out at LUG meetings/conferences/with CDs.
#There might be two or three different flyers, for different target
#audience. Could contain
#	- Explanation of the "Free Software Philosophy".
#	- What does "Ubuntu" mean.
#	- How to use live-cd and installation cd. Thoroughly explain
#	  the differences.
#	- What software is included in the installation
#	- A _really_ short introduction to the GNOME desktop
#	- More ?
#	

The art team could possibly do this, after the rest of the artwork.

#Posters
#=======
#There are people out there who actually have acces to /&%@Â£$! printers.
#Why don't we take advantage of that and create some real Ubuntu posters?
#

Same as the Flyers.

#
#Website Buttons
#=======
##Select a few and promote (or suggest) them as the official Ubuntu buttons.
#This could do well as a "competition" where the art team declares the winner
#and presents it as candidate for official button(s).
#

Unless we want more, we can draw these from here:
