=== Echo Monthly News ===
=== Keeping the History Alive ===


[[MartinSourada|Martin Sourada]] announced[1] on @fedora-art a new issue of the Echo Monthly News[2], a publication covering the development for the Echo icon set. This month it featured: new icons, new templates, Echo's withdrawal from Fedora 10 as a default theme, an icon check script and thoughts about the Echo's future
A few years ago, when the Fedora "Infinity Bubble" logo was created, it was accompanied by an insightful set of slides, describing the process which led to its creation, but since the original page hosting the slides closed some months ago, this particular piece of history was lost. Until now, as [[MairinDuffy|Mairin Duffy]] posted[1] on #fedora-art the results of her recovery work "I took some time to grab what I could from archive.org and reconstruct it here: [2]"

=== Maria's Awesome GIMP Videos ===
=== Feedback on the Fedora 10 themes ===


[[MairinDuffy|Mairin Duffy]] shared[1] with the rest of the Art Team her enthusiasm about the GIMP video tutorials[2] created by [[MariaLeandro|Maria Leandro]], another member of the team "Hey, María shared these with us in #fedora-art today and I wanted to post them to the list so everyone could see".
With the final release for Fedora 10 closing, more and more previews are published on the web and in most of them the artwork is praised. This week [[JaymeAyres|Jayme Ayres]] linked to yet another such praising review "I was giving a look at the blog Rodrigo Menezes [2] and saw on the analysis done by 10 Fedora dual blog JupiterBroadcastisng [3] (who particularly did not know), said some puerility on Fedora, but praised highly the work of Artwork and then I'd like to share with you. Congratulations to all!"

[[NicuBuculei|Nicu Buculei]] forwarded[1] to @fedora-art an article in praise of the default wallpaper theme in Fedora 10: "Here is what Ryan Paul from Ars Technica says about the Fedora 10 theme in a short article about the Preview Release: 'I was particularly impressed with the high quality of the new desktop wallpaper image, which comes from the Solar artwork theme. The whole user experience felt amazingly polished'", experience shared by [[JaymeAyres|Jayme Ayres]] "I showed Solar Theme and some works that the Artwork team has produced during Latinoware and ALL people were impressed with the high quality of the subject, this is a pride for the Artwork some people ask me 'Were we find that to download!? This is amazing!'"

=== The Desktop Beyond Fedora 10 ===
 
[[MatthiasClasen|Matthias Clasen]] posted[1] on @fedora-desktop a list of ideas[2] regarding the future of the Fedora desktop "Currently this is just a pretty unsorted mixture of wild ideas, implementation details and concrete plans, and a lot of them are missing details, user stories and use cases. Don't misunderstand it as 'the plan for the F11 desktop.'"

Keeping the History Alive

A few years ago, when the Fedora "Infinity Bubble" logo was created, it was accompanied by an insightful set of slides, describing the process which led to its creation, but since the original page hosting the slides closed some months ago, this particular piece of history was lost. Until now, as Mairin Duffy posted[1] on #fedora-art the results of her recovery work "I took some time to grab what I could from archive.org and reconstruct it here: [2]"

Feedback on the Fedora 10 themes

With the final release for Fedora 10 closing, more and more previews are published on the web and in most of them the artwork is praised. This week Jayme Ayres linked to yet another such praising review "I was giving a look at the blog Rodrigo Menezes [2] and saw on the analysis done by 10 Fedora dual blog JupiterBroadcastisng [3] (who particularly did not know), said some puerility on Fedora, but praised highly the work of Artwork and then I'd like to share with you. Congratulations to all!"
