If you need any help with the banners and such, lemme know! :)

OK. Sounds cool. Just ping me when you have the final version and I'll get to work immediately. That wallpaper is awesome and will make a great background.

Should I start on the anaconda-banners and such, too? // Kŕis

Cool, I'll do it as soon as I get a little time ;) // Kris 2010/4/4 Máirín Duffy <duffy(a)fedoraproject.org&gt;: > Hi Kris, > > On Mon, 2010-04-05 at 22:56 +0200, Kris Thomsen wrote: >> Should I start on the anaconda-banners and such, too? >> >> // Kŕis > > Yep, that'd be awesome!

No, I'm really sorry, didn't have the time yet. I think I will take a look at it tonight :) // Kris 2010/4/19 Máirín Duffy <duffy(a)fedoraproject.org&gt;: > On Mon, 2010-04-05 at 23:03 +0200, Kris Thomsen wrote: >> Cool, I'll do it as soon as I get a little time ;) >> >> // Kris >> >> 2010/4/4 Máirín Duffy <duffy(a)fedoraproject.org&gt;: >> > Hi Kris, >> > >> > On Mon, 2010-04-05 at 22:56 +0200, Kris Thomsen wrote: >> >> Should I start on the anaconda-banners and such, too? >> >> >> >> // Kŕis >> > >> > Yep, that'd be awesome!

If you'd rather work on the GTK stuff let me know and I can try to pick this up from you.

Since the wallpaper is taking a bit longer than anticipated, and since it'll look very similar to what we already had for the alpha anyway (same colors, same texture, maybe composition a little different) would you mind starting on this design now, and we can swap out the screenshot showing the wallpaper (should you choose to use one) later on, so at least the basic framework of the banner is in place? I think using this for now is the safest bet: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:F13-concept-rocketskytrails2.jpg The sources for that one are here: http://fedorapeople.org/groups/designteam/Resources/Fedora%20Release% 20Themes/F13/Alpha/Sky%20Trails/try%203/ What do you think?

Ooo, splash screens. So my bet is that to make these ready, we probably need closure on the wallpaper theming -- in other words, if there's a radical change in the wallpaper, it could affect the way the splashes look.
