Find or create sounds to be used as system sounds

completed by: hackpert

mentors: Humdinger

Haiku doesn't come with sounds that can be used for system events. This task is to change that. Go out and either record/create fitting sounds of your own, or browse the web to find adequate files. You may want to stick to themes for all sounds, but you don't have to.

Submit 3 files for each of these events:

  • Error notification
  • Information notification
  • New E-mail
  • Startup
  • Window minimized
  • Window restored
  • Vision (IRC-client) Nick Notification
  • Important notification
  • Beep

Put the event name in front of the original filename. Add a text file that lists the source (url) and license of each file. Create a zip archive of each of the 3 sound packs and upload it to this ticket.


Important:

All submitted files must come with an open license like Creative Commons (see http://creativecommons.org/). Be sure to credit the authors by name if the license demands so (e.g. CC Attribution 3.0).

Sounds have to have good quality without hissing, compression artefacts etc.
