Contributing - Spreading the news with Mageia logos

Postby n9nu » Apr 11th, '11, 02:22

Hi

I was wondering if there were community logos or artwork for the official 'mageia' logo and/or other artwork around?

e.g. Avatars, banners, etc.

Hi,

I don't know, but maybe you can try to ask the artwork team on its dedicated mailing list. : https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-artwork

It would really be a nice idea spreading the word, you know :)

I'm not part of the artwork team, but I was bored in class today.
Think of them as fanart, and feel free to distribute it around and spread the word.
Just, you know, don't charge money for it or anything.
Maybe next time I'll make some userbars. (Do people still use those?)
Share and enjoy!

I really like the artwork on the banners, thanks for you boredom in class :p
I always find Tux funny, but I'd like one of those banners without the Tux if you still have it :)

Through the magic of layers and xcf images, I bring you Tux-free banners!
Also, you can find some more of my artwork here: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=416
IMO these banners are better. You know what they say, practice makes perfect!
I should go practice some more...
Share and enjoy!

You should really join the artwork team, for they lack members and you have some nice skills!

I'll definitely use that userbar :)

Hi,

You should do some in french too ? Can you do it ? Or else, can you give the source files ? I could make it available for MLO.... ;)

I can type funky French letters (those vowels with the funny decorations) but I can't be sure on the translation. (I don't want to trust Google Translate with this).
So, just tell me how you would translate Mageia user, Mageia developer and Mageia contributor into French (or any other language people want) and I can do it in two minutes. :P

for french :

"Mageia user" -> "Utilisateur de Mageia"
"Mageia developer" -> "Développeur Mageia"
" Mageia contributor" -> "Contributeur Mageia"

(BTW : nice artwork Max :))

Thanks for the logo's and the other artwork you made.
I started using one of your logo's (not the one below but a French one) on the Dutch Mandriva club website.

Hi Max,

thank you for Mageia logos (banners), are very nice! Please, can you create for Czech Mageia users?

"Mageia user" → "uživatel Mageii"
"Mageia developer" → "vývojář Mageii"
"Mageia contributor" → "přispěvatel Mageii"

+ "Mageia wiker" → "wiker Mageii CZ" (Mageia wiki developer/contributors)

thank you a lot ;)

These graphics are nice and should be used wherever the forum allows graphics in signatures.

But IMHO it makes no sense at all to use them in a Mageia forum (i.e. here).

Well, by using them you can distinguish between users, contributors and developers.
But of course, when someone doesn't update his graphic when moving from one group to another, it doesn't work :oops:

Nope, far from that, it's just that marja wrote about if you don't update the graphics in your signature. It says "Mageia user"
in her signature, although that is not really true, being the leader of the Documentation team and doing a fine job in the Bug Squad,
but maybe she's just like me and likes understatement and being decent ;)

That is true, alf, doktor5000 didn't embarrass me at all. His giggling made me smile. Your comment did too, btw, because I didn't take it seriously ;)
