Back in June, we ran a contest to challenge the Eclipse community to photoshop some movie-themed posters to promote Ganymede.
This time, I'd like to propose a different challenge.
- What: An opportunity to show your Photoshoppin' / GIMPin' skillz. Top five community-voted submissions will win Eclipse schwag.
- When: Now through mid-November.
- Why: Because Eclipse is better than MovieOS.
- Who: Anyone with some free time to burn.
- Where: On your blog, or attached to bug 252135.
So, what should you design? The rules are simple. Take a still frame from a movie or TV show, and replace the MovieOS with a screenshot of an Eclipse IDE running your favourite plugins, an RCP or SWT application, or even a mobile OSGi app.
Some links to get you started:
- JavaEE Perspective Screenshots
- Eclipse RCP | Eclipse For You
- Open Source Rich client platform (RCP) applications
- Some screen captures & stills from various movies, TV shows, and applications
- Google Image Search
