A nice contrast might be between the two extremes of our physical
experience - the enormity of the cosmos at one end, and subatomic
particles at the other.   Something like this -

But with this -

as a background instead of empty space.

I'm starting to think I may replace the "streaks" idea from the original
splash with designs designs echoing those. They could work quite well
too with the Edge of Space motif.

Something based on particle tracks - http://fwd4.me/00rp

could look good.

Thank you.

 

Right now I'm beginning to go through redhat-logos to apply this design,
starting with Anaconda of course.

So, there. Done a possible anaconda-splash, showing off the motif I had
in mind. It's a shame that the current logo doesn't quite work right on
all color schemes.

I would love to see that when you've got it done.  Great Concept imo.
Also, at least one LHC wallpaper as someone mentioned.

I'm trying something right now as a concept Anaconda splash, basically
its a sort of "edge of space" motif, except with the atom from the logo
instead of Earth. I'm also planning on having the trail of a shuttle
launch or something be a representation of the atom trails from the
logo, some stars of course, and a sort of periodic element-based logo
for the release.

Space

-The final frontier. Something based off a night sky or sunset

 

Nucleus

-I could see some sort of motif involving atoms or fission working well
(and I mean, in a much better way than just the logo in the corner of
the wallpaper)

 

If all else fails, I could just make something abstract with a motif of
stripes and atoms.

 

So, anyone have any suggestions/thoughts?

Some sort of convergence of an atom/nucleus and space might be
interesting - is it an atom or is it a solar system ....
