My Contribution: Designing icons, themes, or buttons.
 

If anyone's making an app and they want nice looking graphics for it contact me. I'll do all the graphics for free (I don't do logos).

My designs are modern and have a 3D feel. I don't use a lot of lime green or bright red, I tend to stay with darker shades of blue and glossy black effects.

I'm currently working on a theme for Maemo 4 which takes the best layouts form the itouch and windows mobile and combines them so if anyone wants to help with that I will appreciate it. (Someone please tell me how I can start a project at the maemo garage or I'll just set up a forum for my projects where anyone can donate.)

I'd like to make a calculator with really nice buttons and a really nice 'screen'. If anyone can do the programming and I can do the graphics that'll be great.

You need to register a garage account first

Make some sketches of your idea for the calculator, and I think I can help, as i'm a programmer.

Good luck with the theme, I would love to change the default one, just can't find any other as polished :)

I wouldn't mind some nice coloring and shading done for a few of the Xkbd keyboard layouts I put together.

I think that us N800 users would find that to be really nice.

I believe each key would need to be made using Corel so it might not be that difficult to do.

I already did :) Just can't find how to make one.


I'll give you all my on screen n810 keyboard design so you can make it work in the n800 theme.

If you're still interested in helping out, I'd need some icons for my application.

It would be something similar to the ones in this screenshot: http://wiki.maemo.org/Image:Mediaplayer.png
I mean the same function, it isn't necessary the same style and colors that them.

It's for the initial screen of Maemo WordPy, a blogging client, so instead of Music, Video, etc, the buttons would be "Create post", "Manage posts", "Manage settings" and "Upload photos".

The only condition is that they should be nice-looking in dark backgrounds because in Maemo 5 generally there are dark themes.

Please, tell me if you're interested in it.

I'm interested and I'd love to help out.

Re: My Contribution: Designing icons, themes, or buttons.
 

But the request was directed at the other guy?

Re: My Contribution: Designing icons, themes, or buttons.
 

lol dude you really have it out for me since the Xournal icons eh?

Come on dude. It's an open source community. I want all the apps that are released to look their best, whether myself or anyone else happens to design elements for them.

My belief is that if anybody wants to contribute and help out, the more the better, and may the best work get chosen, so that apps can look their best.

And I enjoy designing and exercising my skills.

I'm going to work on designing a new attitude for you big guy. :cool:

Re: My Contribution: Designing icons, themes, or buttons.
 

I think the problem here is, that this is the other guy's thread and he wants to help people by designing graphics. I really think it's a bit of rude of you to pop up here shouting "I'll do it, I'll do it". Perhaps you should have PM'd yerga instead? Since people here hinted you: "take the iniative", you are always jumping at change if there is something related to graphics design.

Sure you do, if you jump at the every chance before anyone you surely will be able to make them look best. I know you work in your fancy company and can do photoshop stuff professionally. If someone manages to do something better than you, no problem, you can just use your farly superior photoshop skills to beat them.

Yeah, who doesn't?

What? So it's my attitude now? Also, are you suggesting that I don't know anything FOSS community?
