Hi!
Work on the Brainstorm website is still ongoing, and right
now we are working on a basic Help page, small and simple, that should
introduce a new user to Brainstorm. And as you know, a drawing is
worth a thousands words :)
So I'm here to ask you for a little artwork help.
Here are the lines of the project:
* The goal of the artwork is to present how Brainstorm works.
- The not-yet-definitive contents of the page are at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brainstorm/How_Brainstorm_works. The page will
be directly hosted on brainstorm. At the moment, it is
hosted the wiki for easier team editing sessions.
- There are five paragraphs, each one defining a "step" in the
Brainstorm process. Each of these steps can be linked each other:
POST => VOTE => DISCUSS => SEE
___________________________=> PARTICIPATE.
- The idea I have for the artwork is one similar to the artwork in the
front page of http://www.ideastorm.com/ : drawings and arrows. Here the
process described in the drawing is pretty clear. We could use the
same pattern, except that we would add a new PARTICIPATE drawing,
connected with an arrow with DISCUSS, as shown above. And each of the
drawings describing a step would be linked to the
corresponding paragraphs.
=> But I'm open to others ideas.
- All the text and the artwork would be put on an single Help page,
which would be linked from Brainstorm front page: the drawing would
not be put on the front page itself. Thus, the height of the drawing
is not limited. The width should be limited to 650, to be able to view
it on the Brainstorm theme in 1024x768.
- Any suggestions, please tell me :)
Cheers,
Nicolas
