Ubuntu Countdown Banners Available

I remember when I was running Feisty Fawn and visited www.Ubuntu.com for the first time. I never imagined seeing any of my own work on the page, but that changed today.
From today you can grab the code for my countdown calendar (Option 2). Thorsten Wilms (thorwil) has done amazing work on the official/default countdown banner.

Jaunty Countdown Banners - Again...

I've created the first set (32 images) of countdown banners for Jaunty. Everything should be working and ready. You can grab them and the JavaScript here: http://madsrh.googlepages.com/MadsRHcountdownbanner.tar.gz
JavaScript is all new to me, but I've written a new script - which I think works better than the one I grabed of Ubuntu.com.

Stéphane Vergeylen and Wolter Jolan have used javascript to dynamically modify the texte which is displayed on the banner. There is thus infinite possibility of updating the welcome text, or to animated the displayed text. See what it looks like here...
You can also grab a version of my countdown banner using this script: http://madsrh.googlepages.com/Animatedcountdown.rar.

There is no official Ubuntu countdown banner yet (I really like Thorsten Wilms suggestion), but Matthew Nuzum will soon meet with Kat Kinnie who is in charge of "corporate identity" to pick out the ones that are most promising.

Making banners for the Danish bug jam

Today I spend a little time making a promotion webbanner for the Danish bug jam. Although it is far from perfect, I hope someone will use it. The result looks like this:

Rhythmbox

Here is some artwork I did for Rhythmbox. This is done in Adobe PhotoShop 7 using WINE on Ubuntu 8.04


Maybe the Ubuntu logo is a little too much ;-)
