Hi Cor, *

thanks for your comments :-)

... and I'd really like to read about the opinions of any other project 
members...

Hi Bernard,

I created a new version of the slide draft, like the minimal version,
but with a small gradient for the curve and a broadened part with the
town silhouette at the top.

I uploaded it to
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/images/2/23/OOoCon_slide_new.png
[...]


I like this one even more.
I was a bit careful with the full black of the first design round, since
that often does not look so good when printed black-whit.


Both the new slide and the alternative title are using raster graphics
instead of vectors - the slide looks smoother than the old version at
my 800x600 screen, but the alternative title has not been improved...
[...]


The new slides look very rough at my computer (Windows and Linux)
Do they possibly suffer from a bug, somewhere in the dev-stack, that the
original graphics were replaced by the thumbnails?


At my Ubuntu version  of OOo (3.0.1) the lines look good (especially on 
slide 3), but with OOoDev m58 they look rough in the working 
area/preview. In the slide show they look fine again.


Apart from that, I prefer slide 1 and 4.


Me too :-)

If we don't get any other comments, I'll finish the presentation 
template by adding an Agenda page.


Best regards

Bernhard


Best,
Cor

Hi again,

I created a new version of the slide draft, like the minimal version, 
but with a small gradient for the curve and a broadened part with the 
town silhouette at the top.


I uploaded it to
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/images/2/23/OOoCon_slide_new.png

It is linked from the Impress template gallery page:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/Gallery/ImpressTemplates

and part of the updated Impress file:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/File:OOoCon09_template.odp

The Impress file contains a second Title slide using the original OOo 
blue tone for the gradient and for the OOoCon logo itself (the creator 
of the logo modified the OOo logo color - I don't know if he got the 
allowance to do so...)


Both the new slide and the alternative title are using raster graphics 
instead of vectors - the slide looks smoother than the old version at my 
800x600 screen, but the alternative title has not been improved...


What do you think of the new slide? (As title I prefer the old one even 
if it uses the wrong colors)


Don't hesitate to tell me any idea for improvement.

Best regards

Bernhard

Hi Bernard,

I uploaded links to two drafts (John's and a second one I did) for the 
OOoCon presentations to the gallery page:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/Gallery/ImpressTemplates

At the screenshot pages I put the links to the impress files (as I 
forgot to save them as templates, they are still normal presentations).


All comments are welcome :-)


Thanks a lot. Look very good to me.
When we look to the demand black-white printing, I would choose for the 
minimalistic line-version.
The bullets of that version do not show correctly however, on my (older) 
linux os.

The bullets on the graphical based slide are OK.

Also the curvers do not show smoothly. While Anti-aliasing is activated. 
But again: an older linux OS on an older (5+yrs) laptop.



Regards,
Cor

IMHO it depends on the amount of text to be added to the template.
I did the minimalistic version, because I thought, the graphical based 
version looked too crowded with more text than just a few lines.


I did a black-white screenshot of the gradient slide: Except of the town 
part of the OOoCon logo it works quite good...


(By the way: The gradient in the header is converted to vertical instead 
of horizontal whenever I reopen the file...)

I think you refer to the bullets of the listed items.
Perhaps they don't render correctly with older OOo versions? I don't 
know if there has been any modification to the standard bullets in a 
recent OOo version.


If so, reworking the template with an older OOo might solve the problem.

(I use an older laptop too :-) )


The bullets on the graphical based slide are OK.

Done with OOo-Dev 3.2 (m56).


Also the curvers do not show smoothly. While Anti-aliasing is activated.
But again: an older linux OS on an older (5+yrs) laptop.


They are vector based metafiles - perhaps they should be modified to 
raster images (even if the file would become larger...)
