Fedora 14 Artwork

After in the previous week the team decided on the graphic concept to be used for Fedora 14, now is the time to gather feedback and ensure the theme is developed openly and with input from the entire community. For this Kyle Baker created[1] a wiki page[2] to collect it and Máirín Duffy wrote a blog post[3] on the topic. Everyone is invited to comment and spread the word, the deadline for Alpha is 2 weeks away.

Also in Fedora 14 related news, the Design Team is calling for contributions[4] with the supplemental wallpapers[5] where everyone is invited tu submit freely licensed images (CC-BY or CC-BY-SA) and the team will make a selection for inclusion in the distro.

Testing the new Fedora Branding Fonts

The Design Team is testing a new selection of branding fonts[1], Comfortaa as title font instead of MgOpen Modata and Cantarell or Droid Sans as body font, for this the current Bi-Weekly Design Bounty[2] will use those fonts. Also Ryan Lerch[3][4] and Ian Weller[5] wrote blog posts, informing ans asking for feedback about this trial.

Design for the Local Communities Website

Máirín Duffy posted[1] a mockup for the new local communities landing page[2] "So Sijis converted it to the 960.gs grid we've been looking at using for the upcoming new www.fpo" and Jef van Schendel proposed[3] the use of flags "Maybe flags would be less trouble + take up less space + be clearer." Máirín forwarded the question to the Advisory Board[4] together with Jef's mockup where the general opinion[5] was contrary to such use "Lets avoid the flags, shall we?"
