Fedora cover art and CD-label

foolish · #1 12th May 2004, 07:29 PM

I was wondering, do any of you know of any Fedora artwork that can be
made into a cover and CD-label for my Fedora CD-set or maybe even some
finished covers or cd-labels?

If someone not as artistically retarded as me decided to make something
like this, will it be ok (as in legal) to distribute it?

This will be nice for users who like to dress up their cds, and for our future live-cd as well.

What we need is CD and DVD covers as well as cd-labels. Any artists out there that would like to get at it?

This is not specific for Fedora, but you can always check http://art.gnome.org (it it's already running, the server has been down for some time...)

Any art from the art project should be eligible as the icons and themes are under the GPL. I'm assuming this art will also be free.

A particularly interesting image is the white and transparent logo at /usr/share/gdm/themes/Bluecurve/logo.png. It's a part of the redhat-artwork package.

I've been Windows free for quite some time now. If only game companies would publish more Linux titles, I wouldn't even need my console anymore.

great artwork ! Did you also happen to create a cover for the dvd box to be printed ?

that would rule! i do have an example in French if you like.

OK, I love the labels, but my next question is, What software are you using to print them, and how.

you can get CD label Word templates and convert to OOffice...with a llittle adjusting I can print on the avery or memorex cd stickers

or with nero for windows (yes yes yes... i know but it works well) it has a cd lable creator which allows you to create the front and back covers. the insert, cd label etc etc.
