Carbon graphics?

And maybe it's not too early to start thinking about the Carbon graphics stack? Boron is so pretty and popular it will be a hard act to follow...

Debian are requesting proposals for Trixie artwork, but none have arrived yet:

Wasn't Trixie Ed Norton's wife's name on the Honeymooners?  Make a moon.

Re: Carbon graphics?

^ Her nickname. Nice idea.

Just in case anyone doesn't know, "trixie" in this case refers to this cute Triceratops...

Re: Carbon graphics?

There's the full suite (WIP).

No graphical tools, all cli. Still WIP but starting a git repo for it soon.

I call it desert moon.

It's probably love it or hate it, but that's how artwork is!

Re: Carbon graphics?

@micko01, I'd move the Debian logo to upper left and lose the Debian red, and make it semi-transparent and smaller, but that's just me. Excellent submission idea, send it....

Re: Carbon graphics?

^@hhh I have stumbled upon a logo font with most distro logos - works great with SVG as the files are tiny - PNG at large res (UHD) can get quite large even if it is an SVG with an embedded PNG.

I can actually make it look glassy - or is that classy?

Edit to add:

Probably the most difficult thing is different aspect ratios, I have to (well my restriction) cover everything from 21:9 (Sony) to 4:3 and things like 9:16 for vertical displays. Of course then there's banners and stickers whatever as well.

I've set myself the task to do everything programmatically (<< spell check don't like that!) and the only graphical app I'm using is mtpaint - but not the GUI, it has a --cmd option to do things on the CLI (image-magick could be a possibility too).

It's tortuous but fun ( << spellcheck ok!)

Re: Carbon graphics?

^ Yeah, that's as good as any. Really good.

For the resolutions/ratios of your artwork, just go with the Debian specs...

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/A … quirements

A theme consists of a whole set of graphics. You do NOT need to do them all until a decision has been made which artwork will be distributed with the next release of Debian GNU/Linux.

So just make mockups of some of the other formats, Like J. Taka did for "Mirage".
But you should know that all these graphics have to be done at some point - and you should be willing to do them.

Re: Carbon graphics?

@micko01, your theme isn't listed here yet...

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/Artwork/Trixie

I guess it takes several days to be accepted and added? BTW, that DVD label is great.

Re: Carbon graphics?

Incredibly boring isn't it? Blue again. It's basically yours, @micko, but without brown or stars or a horizon. Plus, your navy blue is a better color than that baby blue...

Re: Carbon graphics?

I quite like the Debian choice myself, baby blue or whatever.

But ours will be better of course.
