=== More Echo Icons ===
=== FUDCon T-shirt ===


This week the focus on the Fedora Art list was development for the Echo Icon theme [1] with new icons created by Martin Sourada and Luya Tshimbalanga.
[[User:emichan|Emily Dirsh]] proposed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-December/003702.html</ref> a T-shirt design for the Tempe FUDCon "It's inspired by the art of the Hohokam who once lived in the area" and after an initial warm receive<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-December/003703.html</ref> from [[User:duffy|Máirín Duffy]] "Wow that is **gorgeous**, I love it! I would love a shirt with that design in it!" she followed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-December/003705.html</ref> with a couple of variations "Ooh, I love the idea of a navy shirt! Yeah, the advantage to a single-color design is it's very easy to adjust the color." [[User:schendje|Jef van Schendel]] also proposed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-December/003704.html</ref> a few remixes "Here's a few quick and dirty stabs at a dark shirt version".


Martin also started a debate [2] about the best shape for icons for package install and update [3]: using or not a pagage visual, using an optical disc or just arrow and various kind of colors.

An interesting touch made by Luya was noticed [4]: use a sketch of the release wallpaper in the icons showing a computer display, however, this would require [5] refreshing a number of icons twice a year and may not be that useful for other distros shipping the theme.
=== Design Team Blog ===


Starting with a rude complaint [6] form another contributor, Mark, about some icons which supposedly "have that shit color", Marin proposed [7] a color change in the default palette [8] and after a favourable reaction in even got into use.
[[User:duffy|Máirín Duffy]] announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-December/003716.html</ref> a new communication channel for the team "Thanks to Sijis we now have a team blog!! (Yay!!)" and she invited authors to join "Some members of the design team we couldn't add to the blog because their accounts weren't in the Fedora blogs system. If you'd like to be added, please log in to Fedora blogs to create your account, and let me know you've done it so I can request your account be added."

Contributing Writer: Nicu Buculei

FUDCon T-shirt

Emily Dirsh proposed[1] a T-shirt design for the Tempe FUDCon "It's inspired by the art of the Hohokam who once lived in the area" and after an initial warm receive[2] from Máirín Duffy "Wow that is **gorgeous**, I love it! I would love a shirt with that design in it!" she followed[3] with a couple of variations "Ooh, I love the idea of a navy shirt! Yeah, the advantage to a single-color design is it's very easy to adjust the color." Jef van Schendel also proposed[4] a few remixes "Here's a few quick and dirty stabs at a dark shirt version".

Design Team Blog

Máirín Duffy announced[1] a new communication channel for the team "Thanks to Sijis we now have a team blog!! (Yay!!)" and she invited authors to join "Some members of the design team we couldn't add to the blog because their accounts weren't in the Fedora blogs system. If you'd like to be added, please log in to Fedora blogs to create your account, and let me know you've done it so I can request your account be added."
