Artwork

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

Contributing Writer: Nicu Buculei

Single-Window Mode GIMP

Valent Turkovic forwarded[1] to the Design and Desktop list a preview "Can't wait to get my hands on single-windows GIMP!" and a lot of contributors, like Máirín Duffy, showed their interest in this feature[2] "I want that so bad!" A lot of persuasion[3] from Valent, started to work[4] for the package maintainer, Nils Philippsen: "I'm thinking about it, but prefer to wait for a 'real' 2.7.1 release if it won't take too long."

Theming Progress

With only a few days before the deadline, the design concepts for Fedora 13[1] continued with a number of submissions from Máirín Duffy[2], Mola Pahnadayan[3], Hristo Petkov[4] and Kanza Aman[5]. Also, Stephen J Smoogen delighted everyone with a beautiful NASA photo[6]

Fedora Cheat Cube

Juan Rodriguez created[1] a 'cheat cube' for Fedora[2] "No longer does using the terminal have to involve memorizing obscure commands, you can always have a fun cube around to remember the important things, like yum commands and navigating with the terminal" which was instantly liked so Kris Thomsen announced a Danish translation[3] and Konstantinos Antonakoglou a Greek one[4]
