I think to make it installable, first we need change the way of LibreOffice draws the screen (maybe including some libs like Cairo or something else) to make possible a lot of new things visually. And for sure it would take much more time to debug and polish the code, testing in many systems... At last, I think (*think*) it's not possible make it right now.
My though now it's LibreOffice need many changes and corrections in another areas before we can do something like to renew completely the user interface. Maybe when Citrus project is in a advanced level, I can join myself and help with some design ideas. :)
Thank you for your interest! :D ~Paulo On 15-02-2011 17:50, David Nelson wrote:
Yes, he's doing great work, too. I want to see that implemented. But I really loved what you did there on Deviantart, and you will remember that a lot of other people did, too. I really don't want that to become a forgotten thing. I wish my LibreOffice looked like that now. How can I hack my installation to apply your "skin"? If you find time, give me some clues and I might follow through and build the material and write instructions to make a hacked installation. David Nelson 2011/2/16 Paulo José<pauloup@gmail.com>:Thanks! :-D I don't know if there are interest enough from community to do it right now - there are so many interesting projects in progress on design mail listing currently -, but I share your wish. :) Anyway, there are the Citrus UI <http://clickortap.wordpress.com> [1], an amazing project to change the user interface of LibreOffice. Sadly, it seems to be made by an only man (I'm not sure). ~Paulo [1] http://clickortap.wordpress.com On 15-02-2011 17:21, David Nelson wrote:Hi, :-) By the way, I really want to see you press ahead with that "skin" you did for LibreOffice that you had on DeviantArt...

Actually, the resolution of textures (512px) is not enough to the 1024x768 format, so you can see the aliasing effect in the center picture (look to green highlights in the hills). Also maybe some text may be good too to keep the context of these images. I'll try to do something better today and present to you. :)Thanks a lot for the great artwork!I'm happy with the commentaries from you all. :) Thank you! And thank you for all the people involved in the Mimetype icons creation, because my only work was to put this great artwork in 3D format. :) Best Regards, ~Paulo -- Paulo José O.
