Framework Fan Art 🎨🖌️

The fist part do have eerie resemblance to the fist that was shown in the wikipedia page.
HOWEVER:

  1. Upon closer inspection, the fingers are made more angular, the area near “thenar eminence” is also slightly more angular, and the palm “crease” is also different.
  2. Perhaps more importantly, the hand is holding a adjustable wrench, which, perhaps, have more meanings than the hand itself.

Because a wrench – by and of itself – does not mean anything. It’s just a common tool in a shop. Perhaps we can understand the fist to be a symbol of “the people”, which I don’t think is a stretch.
Also, this movement is literally called right to repair. It’s not about if you are able to repair or not. It’s to put regulations in how companies should support the " repair and modify their own consumer products in ways that would help increase their lifetime and/or performance".

And also, this same graphics (albeit, without the ring, and maybe slightly rotated) is present on effectively every iFixit product. If there is a problem with said graphics, then iFixit would probably have faced a much bigger issue.

It’s simply a symbol, yes, not unlike Swa[_]ka. However, the latter is related to, well, (mostly) crazy people, but the former isn’t.

TL;DR

It’s like how if your car tire had a puncture you don’t have to go to your car dealer to get it fixed, taking three weeks, and all cars effectively use the same wheels. You can change them out yourself or at a local tire repair shop. And attempting to apply this idea to other consumer products (including John Deere tractors).

And locked cellphones tied to a specific carrier’s networks.

I think we have had enough discussion on this matter, and we are getting way off topic and approaching “extreme discussion” territory.

This is getting very off-topic and could become inflammatory. Let’s get back to the fan art please.

Agree! I dig the bottom left as well! It’s the BOLD version of the one on the bottom right.

Discussion around the swastika was moved to its own thread to keep this thread on topic.

The top “row” is just showing the process I went through to smooth out the pixels.

Technically the one on the right is closer to the framework logo, but the smaller hole on the left make it look more cute

Not my work, and not directly framework, but I thought some of you guys might appreciate this poster by the right to repair movement.

I thought those were framework logos… Confirmation bias is real

What logos? Not the nuts they are regular :slight_smile:

Hey guys, I created a background that combines the sustainable and the modern side of Framework, in a minimalistic approach. It’s a bit of a style break but I hope you like it as much as I do :slight_smile:

Has anyone noticed the picture at 47:00 in the Launch Event video?

Appropos of a discussion early on in this thread (look for Feb '22 and read everything down to my “slug” remark), I think this could make for a great piece of fan art - perhaps with the logo added…?

Just a thought…

My first reaction is “omg EMR screen lets gooo” rather than “hmm cool pen you had”.
I don’t think it is too Framework related, but nevertheless.


cool picture idea:

I want to see someone do a blender render. The squares are your expansion deck/module/cards and they are flying in to the laptop to, well, fill in the gaps or whatsnot.
Kinda like Tetris posters.

Or kinda like a “exploded view” technical drawing. Basically is saying “hey our laptop can do this. Buy it and unleash creativity” or whatsnot.

Hello! I wanted to share my Lego Fan project of a Framework Laptop! I made a 13 inch mock up a while ago but upon hearing about the showcase of “something new” i wanted to wait. I’m still not quite done yet but I couldn’t wait to render this out and show everyone!

Wow! That is so cool! If you could release the brick requirements and instructions, I’d be so down for building it IRL!

Oh how times have changed! I don’t know if you would consider the FW 16 a “Gaming” laptop but it’s pretty dark close! I love the carbon fiber motif on the lid… Maybe it’d be a good idea to get that as a dbrand skin :thinking:

Still not clue whether it have a single m.2 slot or two in the base model tho :v

Hello,

Sorry, I come late in the game.
But when I saw @JacobFavreault and @sniss animations, I immediately thought it would be very cool to have this when booting Windows !

I had a look around and saw this video:

The Youtuber apparently uses Resource Hacker to do the job.

Has anybody tried yet?
