=== Game Screenshots ===
=== Fedora 12 Media Art ===


[[User:duffy|Máirín Duffy]] asked for help<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2009-November/001313.html</ref> for a distributed effort to cover with screenshots the large number of games comprising the Fedora Games spin "a lot more are needed. Can you help us out? We made them 300px x 225 px, and took a screenshot and put a logo in too. Where the game didn't have a logo we made one. Let me know if you can help! You can claim a whole letter (e.g., I took care of all the games that begin with A) and churn them out." The task being easy and the topic addictive, a number of contributors joined and the screenshots coverage increased dramatically.

Artwork

In this section, we cover the Fedora Design Team[1].

Contributing Writer: Nicu Buculei

Fedora 12 Media Art

After Luya Tshimbalanga started last week working on media art, he figured out[1] the sleeves do not list the minimum system requirements, so added this information[2]. However, Nicu Buculei noticed[3] the info from Release Notes[4] is obsolete "I am not sure we still support '200 MHz Pentium-class or better'" and Bill Nottingham chimed in[5] with the correct data [6]. As a last step, Máirín Duffy added final polishing to the design[7] "I took 4 hours today to finalize the sleeve and label designs since I've been asked by a number of people where they are, and that they need them yesterday" and also announced it in a blog post[8]

Large Website Banner

Máirín Duffy posted[1] a polished couple of designs for the large website banner, one featuring the Fedora 12 release slogan "Unite"[2] and another without any text. Paul Frields objected to a banner with English-only text "Any reason for us not to use the 'notext' version, that you know of?", looking for ways to translate it[3] "maybe we should see if we can get localized text out of the translations for the 'Unite' wording on the website".
