STLLUG - September 22, 2022

Design a clean, modern, visually appealing image with simplicity. It should have a smooth gradient background transitioning from light blue to soft green. At its center, include a large, simplistic 3D cloud icon. Beside the cloud on the left, display a simplified computer server icon, and on the right, place a simplistic hard drive icon. Incorporate sets of arrows indicating the data flow: one from the server to the cloud and another from the cloud to the hard drive. Add small, sleek monochrome logos of Tux Penguin for Linux and Puffy Pufferfish for OpenBSD at the bottom but semi-transparent to minimize their impact. Furthermore, integrate subtle icons of files, folders, and databases floating to depict the concept of data in cloud storage.

STLLUG - August 18, 2022

Create a visually striking image based on modern cloud computing. The background will feature a smooth gradient transitioning from a deep blue at the top to a lighter blue at the bottom. At the center, depict a sleek and minimalist design of a cloud, representing versatility. Around the central cloud, incorporate modern and visually consistent icons of four devices: a desktop computer, a laptop, a tablet, a smartphone - all subtly connected to the central cloud with thin, white lines. Incorporate smaller platform symbols representing Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and Linux near the device icons. Add faint technological patterns or representations of binary code in the background. Use shades of blue, white, and light gray to keep the image cohesive and modern. All icons must be in a flat design and arranged symmetrically for balance, drawing the viewer's eyes towards the central cloud.

STLLUG - July 21, 2022

Create an image that visually represents the concept of Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) with a gradient background transitioning from dark to light, starting from a rich shade of blue or black at the top, transitioning to a lighter shade towards the bottom. The main visual should be a graphic representation of a filesystem extending from a user's desktop or laptop, with connected icons symbolizing different types of storage services such as a locked folder for encrypted filesystems like `encfs`, a cloud for cloud storage, and a server icon for `sshfs`. Include the Linux Tux penguin near the bottom of the screen or next to a silhouette of a user represented as a hobbyist or business professional interacting with the filesystem. Also, include minimalist icons that represent FUSE features like `sshfs` and `encfs`, and a terminal icon with a simple command prompt interface to represent user's ease of use.
