Hi,
As you know we're in the middle of designing the new and shiny boot
experience for Karmic. A call for participation came quite late (being
late is an inherent part of the 6-month cycle I guess!), but you've
responded nonetheless. Many thanks for all submissions so far (in
particular to mr. doob!), we saw some good insights and concepts there.
The freeze is approaching fast and the developers will need final
designs soon. The design team will now work very hard on putting
together a final proposition, but we're still looking for inspirations
and fresh ideas! Please do continue submitting your ideas and spreading
the word.
To give some tips, we're looking for:
- replacing the progress bar with the spinner (or other animated elements)
- using the effect of glowing light (you may have heard of light
painting) in the dark
- very subtle use of Ubuntu branding (avoid huge logos)
Please submit your work to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Boot
Looking forward to seeing your submissions!
Cheers,
Mat
