OneiricConcepts

This page reflects the current developmental concepts for Ubuntu Studio's 11.10 artwork.

[scott] I would still like to keep a dark UI theme going, it's kinda like a trademark...even if we go with XFCE. Lots of black with dark gray.

I would actually like to see a dark theme like this: http://ubuntu-art.org/content/show.php/Ambiance+dark?content=132875

And maybe use the Faenza icons: http://tiheum.deviantart.com/art/Faenza-Icons-173323228

I think the basis for the new overall theme might come from how different it seems that 11.10 will be. The differences look to be:

  • using a new desktop environment, XFCE most likely
  • rocking a new UI
  • new kernel - snappier, -lowlatency (hopefully), can thread irq
  • better support for user tasks (i.e. documented work flows)
  • hopefully new website > [Jorge] New website/theme will be ready by then (and even a lot earlier)
  • hopefully new documentation (or at least in process)

hopefully new website > [Jorge] New website/theme will be ready by then (and even a lot earlier)

The overarching theme might be "a new beginning" or "you thought you knew Ubuntu Studio" or similar. Somehow we need to mention the transition and the evolution/updating after a period of dormancy or stagnation.
