Countdown banners for Ubuntu 10.10
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 38 images numbered 38 - 1 plus one for day 0 that says "coming soon" and one more that says "it's here" (40 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.
Extra ideas
Last time we featured a Facebook block. If you have ideas for seeing this enhanced, please discuss them on the mailing list.
We've also produced animated iframe countdowns in the past - I think this would be awesome to do again.
And if you want, we can get really innovative - how about an Android widget? What other cool stuff can we do?
Submissions
Post your mock-ups and ideas here. Make sure there's enough detail so that we can contact you!
Immanuel Peratoner's Design
Mark Shuttleworth announced that Ubuntu 10.10 will be "social from the start". I thought this can be very well represented by speech bubbles. Here are some versions with different shades. My personal favorite is the darkest variant.

David Laurell's simple design
This design aims to be as simple and like the Ubuntu site's design as possible. Feel free to change it to your liking. It is rendered in a HTML5 canvas element so Javascript and a modern browser is needed to view it.
Because the banner is rendered by javascript, it works with any date before and after the release.
