Although creativity is at an all time low on me right now

Anyone needs help with GIMP and user interfaces???

Me. I still haven't figured out how to do supposedly simple things like changing a selection to a transparent piece of area, or things like selecting specific layers and applying maipulations. I am given a really hard time with the user interface, as it makes absolutely no sense to me, as I can't find simple functions in the expected places. Even GimpShop is no good.

I have a friend who's working on creating such wallpapers
*juneboy.deviantart.com/art/Desktop-Wallpapers-73746218

You can also create a few more of these.
Rules
1) All the components should be under a free license
2) Final product should be released under a free license
3) Wallpaper's theme should be a FOSS software/community or anything to do with FOSS.
4) There should be some description of the theme.
So, you upto it?

Also,the deviantart is blocked at my office , so cant really see it.

I want some vector wallpapers made under a free license.
One wallpaper should be on one open source software like the one that I've given the link to covers GIMP. There's one on blender going on.
Similarly, you can make a few more on different softwares like Openoffice, Inkscape, QCad, GNOME, KDE, XFCE, GCC, etc.
This is the wallpaper *www.imgx.org/pthumbs/small/4283/Desktop_Wallpapers_by_juneboy.png

vector wallpapers? Sound Intresting. Why not go for PNGs? I am an ammature phopographer(but I loath artificial enhancements) and there many others here too. Nature Wallpapers can make good additions to the overall plesantness of the theme, as blue and green are two very eye-friendly colours.(ok, blue is missing here, but still...)

@mehulved,
Sure i'll try making some on OpenOffice,Xfce and Inkscape.

That's no hard and fast rule. You can use any non-proprietory format.

Another way you can help is provide some photos self clicked or by others under a free license to be used in these wallpapers.
Maybe we can bundle these wallpapers in the distro you people want to remaster.

Is that even a real word?

 

[praka123]

then what about "phopographer"? @gautham:install firefox en_GB dictionary!it saves

 

[ray|raven]

Seeing this makes me ask one question:

"Dude, you drunk?"
No Offence mate

Oh and if you're using Opera, install GNU Aspell.

[MetalheadGautham]

the "ammature phopographer" is back! Bumpety Bump!

OK, got a tiny little problem: where is the custom distro thread? I am planning to post the final plan there.

forgot... got it looooong back while surfing.

 

[vaithy]

Well,

I simply, missed this good topic.. any way here my views...

1) Thus they who can code, may side with block A
2) who are using GIMP and other graphical side with block B
3) who are new to linux and feel they can be little help to this project , may still can be useful as testing the softwares, recommending to friends, and introducing to new comers may side with block C

finally if all blocks are merged in to one entity you have a fine and working Linux developement group for a fine distro!

Best of luck!!


here is thus they want todo some thing in GIMP
