STLLUG Meetings

STLLUG - May 20, 2021

Create a futuristic cityscape with a sleek, dark design. The left side of the image is stormy with a prominent, yet faded and weathered Plex logo indicating frustration and disappointment. Lightning shall punctuate the turmoil. This contrast with the image's right side, showcasing a clear sky with rays of sunshine, and the crisp, bright Syncthing logo, signifying reliability and success. A glowing path cuts through the image, leading from the stormy side to the clear side, symbolizing the transition from Plex to Syncthing. Binary code or data streams flow from the Plex logo towards the Syncthing logo, representing the migration of functionality. Holographic icons for data transfer and synchronization are present between the two logos, adding a 3D element. Use dark tones like various shades of blues and blacks for the stormy side and silvers, whites, and light blue for the bright one.

STLLUG - April 22, 2021

Visualize a futuristic, high-tech data center hallway stretching out into the horizon, bathed in cool blue and white lights that imply the vastness and advanced nature of the technology within. In the center, represent a hybrid cloud environment with two distinct halves. One half illustrates a sleek black and blue mainframe, showcasing its modern design. The other half features a series of interconnected cloud servers, symbolized by minimalist cloud icons interlaced with intricate circuit patterns. Include a carefully integrated, high-resolution logo relating to the mainframe on one side, and a prominent penguin logo associated with the cloud server side on the other. The mainframe and cloud elements are linked by gleaming, futuristic lines and circuits, signifying the seamless integration of the hybrid cloud environment. Embellish the scene with subtle binary code or abstract data flow patterns flowing through the background to highlight the computational strength and data-centric focus of the platform. Use a soft spotlight effect to draw attention to the central representations and effectively create an image of the future of hybrid cloud technology.

STLLUG - March 18, 2021

Create a futuristic and high-tech image for a presentation about 'Local Kubernetes For Dummies'. The background should represent a holographic-style grid subtly glowing in shades of blue and purple, giving a sense of depth and modern technology. In the center, slightly elevated, render an icon of a stylized ship's wheel in a glowing neon-blue hue, symbolizing Kubernetes. Attached at the bottom left to this icon using glowing path lines, design an icon of a whale with containers on it in a contrasting glowing green hue, to represent Docker. Similarly, on the right side of Kubernetes icon, linked via glowing lines, place an icon signifying Helm in glowing orange hue. Throughout the grid background, place small abstract tech icons (nodes, containers, etc.). Overlay the background with a gentle layer of binary code or circuit patterns. Ensure to use subtle gradients and light flares around the icons to make them stand out. The image should maintain professional, clean, and not overly crowded aesthetics.

STLLUG - February 18, 2021

Create a futuristic and technological themed image with a sleek, dark background incorporating shades of deep blue and black. Include a subtle glowing network grid effect to signify connectivity and technology integration. At the center, place a green chameleon logo (while avoiding explicit reference to identifiable trademarks), subtly glowing for a cutting-edge appearance. On the left, place a little blue cow icon with a futuristic shine. On the right, add a ship wheel logo also subtly illuminated. Incorporate semi-transparent elements representing containerized systems as abstract shapes or icons. Integrate subtle visual effects like circuit lines and data flow animations around the logos to symbolize data interchange and advanced technology integration. Add a faint, white light at the top of the image, creating a halo effect around the logos.

STLLUG - January 21, 2021

A high-tech cybersecurity image to announce a major upgrade of OpenVAS. The backdrop is a complex digital network with pathways and nodes, colored in hues of blue and green. The central element in the foreground is the textless OpenVAS logo, subtly larger and glowing. It is surrounded by graphics representing vulnerability assessment tools like shields, padlocks, warning icons, and network nodes. Logos of HTTP/HTTPS to the left, FTP to the right, SSH below, and SMTP above hover around the OpenVAS logo without any text, adding to the complexity of the image. Layered on top of this are soft green digital matrix-like lines of code, creating additional depth and highlighting the theme of programming. All these elements combine to create a clean, modern flat design with slight gradients and shadows for depth, signifying OpenVAS's advanced features and capabilities.
