=== Marc Stewart's design ===
Also uses the new aubergine/orange/white palette, together with the open font [[http://www.campivisivi.net/titillium/?page_id=2|Titillium]]—to reflect this release's emphasis on light—for everything except the new logotype. The .xcf file for GIMP (including all the days and alternate colours) is also attached.

Countdown banners for Ubuntu 10.04

Post your ideas for a countdown banner here. Guidelines are:

  • width: 180px
  • height: 150px
  • optimized png, gif or jpg, or
  • iframe containing interactive content (using static html, css, js and images - no PHP)
  • no flash - must work perfectly with only free software

A successful implementation will countdown the days from the Beta to final release. This means 28 images numbered 28 - 1 plus one for day 0 that says "coming soon" and one more that says "it's here" (30 images total).

For reference see the JauntyCountdownBanners

Post your drafts and mock-ups here along with any extra information you feel is useful then send a message to the web presence team mailing list so we can discuss it.

A few of the best will be selected to be syndicated from www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown and one of the best that harmonizes well with the Ubuntu website colors and look will be shown on the Ubuntu.com homepage.

Sorry, I feel these designs look cheap, good idea but I don't like the background effect, the colours are also unrelated to ubuntu's new branding Sad :(

Muscovy's Design

I'll make the rest if anyone likes the design. I think the banner should show off the new wallpaper.

Silviu Radu's Design

I just wanted to keep it simple and in the same contrast as the new brand graphic. I also can do the rest ;).

Jeff Stone's Design

Building on Muscovy's design, I used the official logo and added a tiny gnome-terminal. I've included the GIMP .XCF for easy changes
