Hi,

What do you think of the background of the window on the screenshot?

[ubuntu-art] Ubuntu Jersey's

[Trey Ethridge]

Hello all!

I'm riding in two charity bike rides this year.  One is for Multiple
Sclerosis and the other is for Diabetes.  I've requested and received
permission from Canonical to create custom jerseys for use on these rides.
 My team is going to be called "Team Ubuntu".

This is a chance for the community to show that we can roll with the best
jerseys that we often see for companies like Microsoft, Red Hat, Cisco, and
Nortel.  I'm am hoping that we can use some Ubuntu culture for the theme of
the jersey.  Ubuntu has a unique mascot for each release.  My thought was
that we would design a jersey that incorporated the mascots of our releases.
 The style of the Hardy Heron wallpaper was pretty popular and would
probably look good on jerseys.  Here is a link to the wall paper I'm
referring to: http://images.google.com/images?q=hardy+heron+wallpaper

The jersey could include the current supported releases or we could try to
incorporate them all.  The jersey isn't limited to a predefined set of
colors, so we really have a lot of leeway in our design.

Here is the list of mascots so you don't have to look them up:

Lucid Lynx
Karmic Koala
Jaunty Jackalope
Intrepid Ibex
Hardy Heron
Dapper Drake

Gutsy Gibbon
Feisty Fawn
Edgy Eft
Breezy Badger
Hoary Hedgehog
Warty Warthog

I realize that there is a wiki page for Ubuntu Jerseys, but I feel that we
want to push the boundaries more than these designs.  The jerseys appear to
be limited by the number of colors that they can contain due to
manufacturing limits.  Plus, they appear to just reuse a lot of logos and
I'm hoping for something new and exciting.

Here is a link to some designs that another cycling team in the Multiple
Sclerosis ride received when they placed a bid on the crowdspring.com design
site.  http://www.crowdspring.com/project/1283223_cycling-jersey-logo-vin/

Check out the Ubuntu jerseys here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuCyclists

I've picked out a company to print our jerseys.  They require that the
design be in the SVG format.  Here is a link to the templates that they
recommend using when designing.

Jersey template:
http://champ-sys.com/media/SS%20Raglan%20Without%20Side%20Panel.pdf

Shorts template:
http://champ-sys.com/media/FullWrap%20U%20Panel%20MBI040.pdf

They have some notes about the black areas of the templates.  The black area
can be one of seven pre-dyed colors.  I recommend checking out the notes on
the page.

The Diabetes ride is in June and the Multiple Sclerosis ride is in
September.  The manufacturing process takes 6 to 8 weeks, so we have some
time to design.

I look forward to hearing from the group.  This is an exciting opportunity
for your artwork to be seen by thousands of participants in these events.
 Please let me know if you have questions or need additional information.

Sincerely,
Trey Ethridge

Looks good, Anton.  I like the texture, subtle but different.  Nice
work.

I for one don't like textures in my theme. Especially in New Wave which is a
polished theme and the texture is rough and seems from a different scenario
:) Just my opinion...

I'm looking for ideas and artists to implement ideas.  I'm not enough of an
artist to pull this off.

Trey,

Are you stuck on the Heron theme or open to other ideas? I may be able 
to throw a couple of ideas your way.

Re: [ubuntu-art] Design?

[Trey Ethridge]

I'm open to all ideas.  I'm just hoping for something more than the Ubuntu
logos, which is why I tried to give an idea of a design that might work.

I look forward to hearing your ideas!

[ubuntu-art] a little hello

[dominic edmunds]

All,

I wanted to drop a mail to the list to say hello and introduce myself, my name 
is Dominic and I work within the design team at Canonical specifically leading 
web design projects. 

I'm a visual designer, starting in print and branding over ten years ago, 
moving into online design about eight years ago and most recently have spent 
the last three years as an Art Director in a large London agency.

I've been with the company for three months now and in that time I have 
attended UDS in Dallas, met up with the UEC and Landscape team and explored 
some web app pieces with them and most recently introduced myself to the 
Launchpad team.

There's lots coming up, I'm very excited and look forward to hearing all that 
is going on here.

cheers

d
