>>Project/Request Title:
Australis add-ons contest graphic

>>Project Overview:
We are running an add-ons contest to coincide with the release of Australis. The goals are to drum up excitement for the new toolbar and tab changes, showcase add-ons that work well in the new design and call attention to its flexibility.

>>Creative Specs & Deliverables:
We need a graphic to use on the AMO homepage and blog, in both PSD and PNG formats, in the following sizes:

748 x 271
650 x 250

The contest runs from March 11 - April 15, so we'll need the graphic no later than March 4 (one week before the contest starts).

Here are the contest details: https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/document/d/1Ze2Trr14j3D7WuluW-HNIzEccPNVfc_UjX36IHcFcIg/edit

Here is proposed content for the graphic, but I'm open to suggestions:

Create add-ons for Firefox's new look
Win a Firefox OS phone and Mozilla gear!

For imagery, maybe show a screen capture of Australis and the add-ons puzzle piece?

Hi, I just wanted to see if we're still on track for 3/4. Would it be possible to see a draft before then? Thanks

Hi Amy, I've attached an example of a layout for the new Add-ons contest.  The idea is to play off of Australis with the use of the night sky/stars along with various glyphs to represent an array of add-ons. Let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Matt

Thanks! Will you also attach the 748x271 version without the AMO homepage wrapper around it?

Attachment: Current Australis

Hmm. FYI, these images seem to have been made using a significantly older version of Australis. Here's a screenshot of what it currently looks like, notice that the icon next to the bookmark-star has changed, and there's a new separator next to the 3-line panel-menu button.

Hi Justin, thanks for flagging. Would you be able to pass along a full version similar to the layout I have in the mockups?

Thanks,
Matt

Sure. Here's a screenshot from a fresh build, with Firefox branding.

Attachment: Crop with a bookmark star

Your originals show that a new tab is selected, but also that the new tab has been bookmarked (the star is yellow). I don't know if that's intentional, but it's certainly a little special because AFAIK you can't bookmark the new tab page.

In case the yellow star is desired, here's a smaller grab that can easily be pasted overtop.

Also, the window size in the last screenshot should sized to easily replace the original, just needs scaled down 40%.

Thanks for passing along, Justin. These will work great!

Hi Amy, 

I believe you have the artfiles you need for this. I'm going to go ahead and resolve. Please reopen if you need anything else.
