Certified Works with Unity

[devnet]

Remember the old "Certified works with XP" badges that are a little
bit taller than wider? Much like Jmiahman did with the original
PCLinuxOS Hardware Database badge (for those that don't remember it,
http://pcloshwdb.com/images/pclos-certified.png )

Think we could get one of those made and sent to me ASAP for inclusion
on the default index.html file for Unity Linux?

I'm picturing the Unity leaf in the middle...but instead of saying
"works with Unity" since this won't be a certification thing...how
about just Unity Linux 2010 on it?

Any takers think they can make it look as cool as the old pclos one?

[Paul LeBlanc]

I'll work on one.
I'll let Ruel know too, if he isnt lurking around here

once the momentum picks up, whatever flagship branch we have should recreate that certification process here at Unity... we could do it for core, but it seems like it would be more potent to be offered by a branch, since the minimalistic nature of the core wouldn't really allow for the greatest level of compatibility with hardware... or am I stepping on my own tongue here?

"Custom" is NOT mass produced... then it's just a product line.

Man, I'm not getting email replies even though I have it
enabled...strange.

[Paul LeBlanc]

That;s weird.

[Custom Processing Unlimited]

very strange... mine has worked from day one... (granted my issue is that my unity-linux.org email address refuses to work with any of the MLs...)

[Jeremiah Summers]

This seems all too familiar.

[Paul LeBlanc]

OK, I just did a quick one to get started. I think I need to do something different with the "It's What's Inside..." text to show it off better
Let me know what you guys think  :)

Paul L.  aka Gemini

[Matthew Dawkins]

It looks cool, but you are right I can't read the what's inside text. Maybe try different contrasts. IDK

[Paul LeBlanc]

Thanks Matt
 Ya.... maybe a darker color will work better. Let me see what I can come up with

[Paul LeBlanc]

Alright gents, Let's try this one?

[Sándor Lisovszki]

Realy nice..

hey paul...?  curious, can you try out "the core of your computer" just to see how it looks?

[Paul LeBlanc]

Thanks Sandor :)

CPU, that may be a bit long actually... I can give it a shot but prob not until Mon. :-\

[Custom Processing Unlimited]

what about "your core..." or "built on..." or (for the hell of it) "what's in your CPU?" :P  will try to come up with some others if I can, keeping it short and simple :D

[Matthew Dawkins]

IMHO the top font is little to thin to read, but you are right it's a lot say up there. also the bright green leaf on hypnotizing alternating bright green background is busy on the eye.

I feel like the old cartoons characters in a transient hypnotic state. I will use Unity.... :D

[Sándor Lisovszki]

Paul!

Hmm... I saw the unity letters. may I ask you to make letters for my video?

I like to use some popup letters in my video like U  n   i   t    e   17  ... separate with transparent background.

Just wanted to let everyone know that this needs to be done before we
release our major release...so I'm using Paul's 2nd image and will do
so until we get a few more in...but it needs to happen ASAP.

Paul,

Think we can try to get one using the colors from the default desktop?

[Paul LeBlanc]

sure... I can't do it till tomorrow morning though...

[Heliooos]

Gemini,
this looks nice, but in my opinion this could have problems when
printing it on a sticker. The colors are very bright and many printers
tend to make the colors more lighter than original so the result looks
like bleached. Maybe we could use darker and more contrast colors.

Second, the background has very similar colors as the leaf and for me
it blends with it so it is not easy to recognize what is on the
sticker.

Very good point Helios....
Here are a couple new ideas.
png-1 is my favorite so far

[Matthew Dawkins]

2010/3/12 Paul LeBlanc <gemini...@gmail.com>

I like the border of the first one with the bg of the second.

[Paul LeBlanc]

2010/3/12 Matthew Dawkins <matt...@gmail.com>

Of course you do.... DOH!!!!! hahaha
I meant to do that.... I'll put up the 2d png with the same border in a minute

[Paul LeBlanc]

OK.... there we go... (can't believe I forgot to change that border)  :P

[Matthew Dawkins]

Tah dah. I like it! :-)

[Paul LeBlanc]

Cool.. Thanks!!!!
One down and... 15 to go???
wait, how many devs are we at now??? hahaha

[Paul LeBlanc]

Dont wait too long though guys... Im outta here by 8pm...
Off to see Alice in Chains this weekend  :P
You got the svg anyway, in case anyone wants to make changes  ;-]

I like it too!

[Paul LeBlanc]

That's 3
Thanks Paul

[Matthew Dawkins]

Didn't you know Gri and I account for everyone else? :D

[ruel24]

Based on Paul's work, I put this together:

[Paul LeBlanc]

Cool... so, we're all set then??  hahaha

[Matthew Dawkins]

OooooooOOOoooo That's nice too!

[Paul LeBlanc]

Nice Ruel...
I would leave the top text clean though... just leave it white  ;)

[Russell Stober]

yes yes i like the blue it sets off the green very very nice indeed 

[Paul LeBlanc]

Thanks Russ

[gettinther]

Wow I like both of them (the blue and the black). I was going to say
"+1 for Paul's last logo until I saw the black one. Now I can't
decide.

I find the black more striking but I think it might be a little too
overpowering (the green/black contrast)? I guess it will really
depend on what background the logo will be applied to.

Agreed...the top text white would make it perfect!

Excellent! I think this is the one!

[ruel24]

Give me a chance to get my system straightened out after the reinstall
and I'll get it fixed for you, or maybe someone can use the SVG link I
provided and do it? I just reinstalled Mandriva and it's not acting
right. Gonna reinstall again. I had to change my partition setup and
so I reinstalled everything.

[ruel24]

Sorry, I didn't get back sooner. I made the fix with the white text.

To unsubscribe from this group, send email to unity-graphic+unsubscribegooglegroups.com or reply to this email with the words "REMOVE ME" as the subject.

The font of the first one is much better.

yes, it's still readable at 33% scale which is important I think

[ruel24]

The font on the first one? You mean the color? It's the same as
earlier, only white. Is there anything you'd like to see done
differently? I'm completely open to suggestions, as always.
