Avio in general is quite good-looking and functional, has a KDE feel to it. The layout bugs me a bit tho, I'd move the entry box below the buttons after - like you said earlier - thinning them out. > As an absolute > fallback we can go with the current one and simply replace the Flying > High background as Nicu suggested.

I don't think the Infinity background will be busy or harsh enough to make the login screen of yester-release look attractive/interesting. You may see this is one were to imagine DNA and Infinity side-by-side. This leads me to this that, because of all the parts to the screen, Avio would be a good idea after some tweaking. Personally, I'd prefer the second [1] style as the other's are blatantly Vista-ish. > we'll have ready for test 3: > > - gnome splash > - kde splash > - multi-colored multiple backgrounds for the time-of-day feature mclasen > mentioned earlier.

That would be fantastic, I was thinking of doing that later on to give us a break. Maybe when the proposals are either /really/ lame or when about three people can work on it all! I'll try to do the splashes as I've the templates from the old DNA and Borealis [2/3]. ./b Refs: 1. http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre2/37395-2.jpg 2. http://iamseawolf.deviantart.com/art/fedorArt-Borealis-Clifftop-KS-48391329 3. http://iamseawolf.deviantart.com/art/fedorArt-Borealis-Clifftop-GS-48391235 -- | ..// seawolf //.. | | Ben Arnold | | e-mail / msn / icq / web | | http://clik.to/seawolfsanctuary | | ben.arnold.inbox (at) gmail.com | | GnuPG Available - ask me! | _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
