openSUSE Leap 15.5 wallpaper refresh #132
Comments
I was considering making wallpapers when Leap 16 was going to release, except I didn't expect Leap 15 to go on for so long. I'm fine with new wallpapers as long as they don't look like the initial SLE 15 SP3 ones. ;) |
Hehe :-) understood. We're still in the middle of discussion, stay tuned! |
The first three don't use our branding colours, and as a personal note I find the logo entirely unnecessary, the last one isn't made in accordance to our wallpaper guidelines from the wiki. |
Ignoring that it doesn't follow our wallpaper guidelines, the image is taken from the internet without paying for it (it would likely be fairly expensive to buy an image like this for use as our wallpaper) |
Re-raising the request with SUSE Branding team for 15.5, this time with a bigger heads up (several months). |
I would say that we should probably do a distribution logo in the corner instead of the project logo, since it's the wallpaper for the distribution. I kind of wonder if we shouldn't also try to aim for colours that are associated with the distribution instead of the project too, but that may be harder to do |
another option would be to place it into spaces in between bars (e.g. tiny chameleons dots or similar) |
@hellcp I like the distribution idea, as I'm pretty sure we can find more "contrastful" colors. Do we have defined color pallet for Leap? Or would colors from get-o-o/leap work? |
That's the only place we really use those colours, but there was a PR to use those colours with logo in the artwork repo too |
@hellcp get-o-o page to Leap would be limited to basically four colors #fbc75d, #21a4dfff (active links) #000000 #fffffff, and their respective 90% 80% ... variants just like in our branding. Let me try to use the leap yellow in contrast with the main project colors. Since the contrast with orange on the SLES wallpaper looks pretty neat. |
Actually after checking also the get-o-o landing page that would be: #54533c #4b3a2a #fbc75d #21a4dfff #000000 #fffffff |
The logo is too close to gnome-panel imho, we should put it bit lower. |
Yes the yellow can hurt if you have brightness on 100%. Otherwise it looks fine on default brightness settings on my external display. I think offering multiple variants would bre super cool. |
Great news! We have a SUSE brand team approval for such design. So let's get this real. @ddemaio how about voting for particular color combinations on survey-o-o? Alternative would be to vote on today's community meeting (we could mention that voting ahead and get some more visitors) :-) We would vote for one of
Additionally I'd ask a yes/no question if we should keep the little geeko in the space or not (no matter the chosen combination). I kept on switching wallpaper constantly on my screen and to me the geeko variant makes me bit more happy. |
The idea was actually to provide same look and feel as SLES. This would not go that way, although I really like the yellow one above. |
The lines that we have could transition to tumbleweed as well, in case we'd shape the lines to infinity symbol e.g. two interconnected circles ... I could see how that could be done. |
If we use the new Leap logo, might as well use the new Tumbleweed logo too, which would be a triangle, I was gonna make the triangle version of this wallpaper too |
@hellcp How about using one of the color schemes with line as default (we'd do formal voting). And take the time until e.g. around december) to supply perhaps 3d flipped variant of it (your design) as an additional wallpaper once it's ready? |
We could also leave this design for what comes next after Leap, and do the usual refresh on the next major release (and then sync up to Tumbleweed) |
I dont hate the Tumbleweed one, I do really really REALLY dislike the purple of the MicroOS one (like, dislike it so much I'll veto package submissions including it...) I think both the TW and MicroOS one would benefit from a reduction in saturation and perhaps the addition of some kind of softening, depth of field, or otherwise blurring to somewhat soften all those hard edges Both the TW and the MicroOS ones are far busier than the Leap/SLE one, and I dislike that..I think the Leap/SLE proportion of 'plain to noise' ratio is much better for a default wallpaper |
Yeah, noted, I do agree with most of that. I will likely also work on a dark mode variant for both, since it would be nice to have that |
@hellcp I do like these, but we need to get the yellow one right. To me the yellow variant still hurts eyes a bit to look into the yellow especially after watching darker background first. Perhaps the yellow should be always on mostly dark background (e.g. yellow on gray). Otherwise I do like the purlple and cyan ones. |
Hello team I did split the next-gen Factory and ALP branding into a separate issue |
* Look and feel from SLES set of wallpaper * Resolves Issue openSUSE#132
* Look and feel from SLES set of wallpaper * Resolves Issue openSUSE#132
Set of new wallpapers for Leap 15.5 #132
Merged scaled variants of this, @hellcp came up with logo placemend guideline, so that was corrected compared to last proposal in this issue. |
Closing the issue |
A tracker for the effort recently briefed on Community meeting https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/weeklymeeting20211207
SUSE Branding team would help us to make wallpapers with SLES look and feel.
The topic of a new background was for the first time discussed I believe in 15.2, I think 15.4 based on SLES 15 SP4 which is a feature release could deliver such a welcome change to our desktop users.
Expectation is to have backgrounds in Leap 15.4 prior Feb 23rd which is the date when we'd like to have a Leap 15.4 Beta build done. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap
