=== Fedora 11 Visual Concepts ===
=== Echo Monthly News ===


With the first milestone<ref>http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/F11#Key_Milestones</ref> for the Fedora 11 visual concept closing on February 1st, [[User:Duffy|Máirí­n Duffy]] posted<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-January/msg00106.html</ref> on @fedora-art a first mockup "I'm thinking maybe somewhere more mountainous with some mists, and with some vines/plants growing up the columns with some sunbeams on them", which was warmly received by the rest of the team, which opted still for a more lively image, as [[User:Luya|Luya Tshimbalanga]] put it<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-January/msg00109.html</ref> "I think of desolation when I see that image with a ruins from old Greek temple

(tend to get bored so easily) and a very dry land. That picture would mean Fedora after collapse. Greece is famous with its olive field so the land needs to be green. I see mountain that look like Olympia and the sky appears to be a god/goddess land. That image needs to be live, not dead."

Following this "lively" concept, [[User:Constanton|Konstantinos Antonakoglou]] came<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-January/msg00111.html</ref> with a photographic collage "I just want to point out the main concept, which is the combination of ancient Greece and nature (water, mountains with a lot of green)" and  [[User:Notting|Bill Nottingham]] advanced the idea of using photographs<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-January/msg00113.html</ref> "is it possible/should we look for a full photo (appropriately licensed) that can be used?"

At the same time, [[USer:Sstorari|Samuele Storari]] tried<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-January/msg00118.html</ref> a different concept in the same Grecian spirit "For this theme I try to work on the Spartan 'Leonidas' idea, I work on the Acient Helm so we don't have discussion on violence or other not connected idea."
[[User:Duffy|Máirí­n Duffy]] introduced<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-February/msg00010.html</ref> a "Programmatic Art Generator"<ref>http://www.contextfreeart.org/gallery/index.php</ref>, something she consider a "nifty FOSS tool [...], and it's even already in Fedora", with regrets<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-February/msg00012.html</ref> for not knowing about it when she created the "4 Foundation" posters<ref>http://www.flickr.com/photos/mairin/3181889947/</ref>
