Re: [Design-team] Constantine

[angella inzinga <ainzinga@xxxxxxxxx>]

I like the East meets West, that gives us tons of room to work lots of things in. The coinage from the age has some very big themes- props to the military (not too useful) and something called a 'camp gate'. Gates are nice for East meets west.  Winged Victory in a chariot is also featured, and it's is nice, but looks like an Christian angel.

Hy there,

the mosaic idea combined with something else (no, not the F-Logo, to simple...) out of the Constantine-theme maybe?!
The "east meets west" slogan i also find attractive. Something like a fist holding a sword made out of mosaic stones or in steampunk lineart OR a line art made of the Constantine head and also out of mosaic stones...

I'm also thinking about a rotating Constantine head, but thats more for the wish-list as screensaver ;-)

the ideas of mosaic are good. but to get all the ideas out in the open we need to keep an open mind. try to come with more ideas about what we can use from the associations.

i think we now have:
- mosaic
- the line art from wonderer (http://www.uweschmidt.org/files/images/athene.png, http://maartenvoetbal.punt.nl/upload/Ajax_logo.jpg)

SO: what can we do with the concept "east meets west"?

I think this is an interesting concept as this was one of the things from Constantine I. This can be seen as a connecting two worlds, building together.

Then I think nicu's mosaic idea sounds good and I suggest that we could
port this "old" mosaic style and "improve" it to a modern style. Maybe
some blue-metalic-rendering thingy (I just let this idea flow around
your heads ;-) ).

About the implementation, keep in mind that we decided to go with
something vector and simple as a *default* (along with a few more, non
release linked, additional options).

Also I had the the "Lion" we had in Fedora11 in my head and now maybe
another animal ... do we want the same theming or something new?

We can't go with another animal (no, not even a panda :D), that would be
to close for the previous release.

Had a bit of a go to see how easy it is to make mosaics and its not that hard. We could make a large mosaic of the many fedora values. I made a little freedom birdie (attached). Like most mosaics, it looks ok but only form a distance so it would have to be a part of a large design.
