[QUOTE=Bionic Apple;20071783] In case anybody else doesn't want to host it, you can just throw it on [URL="http://www.000webhost.com/"]000webhost[/URL].[/QUOTE] OhgodOhgodOhgodOhgod. I'll host it.
Hey i'm kinda new to this but I saw it said you needed some backgrounds. So I made one. Its my first try but I can keep trying to make some other ones. Feedback is much appreciated. [img]http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/5010/facepunchdistrobackgrou.png[/img]
Uh yeah, that doesn't quite go with the CD but i guess we can use about everything, i'll add it to the pack.
Got any ideas for backgrounds? Because im at a loss. Do you guys want rock? flowers? leaves? computer? Anything that i can base an image off of?
Anything that would actually look good on your desktop. Some smooth stuff you can look at everyday and not overcomplicated orgasms of color please.
Any good colors to use? Or should I stuck with a red?
Not really. Incase someone decided to stick to standard wallpapers he'd still want some variation.
Yeah, not even Ubuntu sticks completely to brown with standard wallpapers.
I can host, and design. Gimme a few days to throw something together. :)

[QUOTE=turby;20154167]As long as it's aesthetically pleasing, who gives a toss?[/QUOTE] The art team leader does. Also he thinks that some people forgot how to make appropriately simple websites.
[QUOTE=Tu154M;20153932][url]http://fp-linux.ibutsu.net/[/url][/QUOTE] Ibutsu just posted that he can't host anymore. :downs:
[QUOTE=andersonmat;20155120]Ibutsu just posted that he can't host anymore. :downs:[/QUOTE] What does that have to do with anything. The point i am making is that we already have a layout and we don't need another random dude who isn't in the team to just pop straight in and start working on stuff as he likes. We didn't coordinate teams for nothing. Also, a few posts above i also stated that i was going to host it. :downs: You know, there's constantly people coming in this thread all like "hai guis i can do this and that" and they just proceed to do whatever the fuck they please without giving a shit about what we have done earlier and where we want to go. So instead of making steps forward we're running all over the goddamn place. Everyone is invited to become a part of the team and we can start working on stuff but it just doesn't work like that.
andersonmat is a better coder than I am. Not trying to 'dump' the site, just stating the obvious.
Then he can feel free to actually join the team and read up on what we want and need and not just show up and doing whatever the fuck he wants.
I appreciate the attention for the website, but damn, i need someone to send me some shit to include =/ Would be nice to get those scripts we talked about.
I understand that I don't need to just "throw shit together", I was simply referring that I would be happy to work with you guys to create a website that's both aesthetically pleasing and also functional. I have a dedicated server, and that's the only reason that I offered hosting.
[QUOTE=birkett;20156643]I appreciate the attention for the website, but damn, i need someone to send me some shit to include =/ Would be nice to get those scripts we talked about.[/QUOTE] What scripts again?
Here is another background. Anyone know any good neutral colors that would go well with this Distro? [img]http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/1680/background1le.png[/img] And what would be a good general size for a wallpaper, or should I make more than one size for each?

You could make a 1280 by 1024 one too for those who still have 4:3 screens.
I refuse to put 1280x1024 wallpapers on my 1920x1440 monitor, because that shit would look ugly. Do 2048x1536 for the people who are rocking massive CRTs. If you must do a small resolution, do no less than 1600x1200
Feels a bit nicer, Much simpler. And I think i'm getting better? [img]http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/7044/background5z.png[/img] (Sorry for the massive size) [editline]10:54PM[/editline] One last one for the night. [img]http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/1690/background7.png[/img]
They're both nice other than the shitty fonts
so sometime in 2012 this is gonna be ready yeah?
[QUOTE=Subby;20247095]so sometime in 2012 this is gonna be ready yeah?[/QUOTE] March 2013. Also, zman i think your first wallpaper would look better with a brighter scheme like white-red. But that's all a matter of taste really. And you should really use different fonts.
Anyone know any good fonts? Is there a facepunch distro font, and if not anyone willing to make one?
[QUOTE=zman115;20248737]Anyone know any good fonts? Is there a facepunch distro font, and if not anyone willing to make one?[/QUOTE] Just use [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DejaVu_fonts"]DejaVu (wikipedia)[/url]. It seems like a good font (not for terminal though).
