So You Think You Can Draw?

ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange


One of the many things we've enjoyed about working on Ubuntu User magazine is the new illustrations we get for each Ubuntu release. Our artist, Curt, is ready to pass the torch on to a new illustrator. If you'd like to have your art considered for our next issue of Ubuntu User, submit two sample drawings of a "Lucid Lynx" by March 22, 2010, 5pm CST (GMT -6).
In one illustration, the Lucid Lynx critter should illustrate the theme "Networking," and in the other it should illustrate "Security."
To see previous illustrations in action, check out the Discovery Guide section in issue #1: http://ubuntu-user.com/free1
The details for submitting art:

Vector graphics:
- Size: as big as possible (at least 8'' x 6'')
- File format: .eps, .svg, .ai (Adobe Illustrator)
- Fonts (if used) should be converted to paths
- Color space, RGB, CMYK (RGB is better) – no spot colors
- Transparent background
Pixel graphics:
- Size: as big as possible (at least 8'' x 6'')
- High resolution: 300 dpi at least
- File format: .png (high res), .jpg, .psd (Photoshop)

Important: If you use Adobe Creative Suite be sure to save your art in a CS3-compatible format.
