Re: [libreoffice-marketing] New header image for social media channels
I agree with Charles. The header image with the icons is clean and professional (nice work!) but the image should convey the message - even without words. As for the message itself, we seem to have overlooked the fact the LO6 is compatible, flexible, and a viable alternative to other closed, propriety products.

However in this instance I am not sure that reusing the icons of the suite is going to send any message. We are only impoverishing our branding elements with icons that everybody has already seen and that may be subject to change at some later release. Also, perhaps even more simply: what message are we trying to send here? It may be simpler than the previous one but I am not sure I'm getting it... Best, Charles. Le 14 août 2018 09:56:46 GMT-04:00, Simon Phipps a écrit : I like both of these. I would encourage others to consider that: - This is just the header image. It does not need to include a comprehensive message house - Earnest messages can appear ingenuous to newcomers. Simple wins. Personally I would go with either of these as is for now and see how things go. S.

Recommendations from the Android developer website: "Create a video of your app in action to show off the app's main features, either by using screen capture software and filming a physical device running the app. Try to keep the video concise; aim for a run time of somewhere between 30 and 120 seconds, and highlight the most important or compelling features first." I'd go for something short, with a voiceover and quiet music track in the background. My draft outline for the script: * (LibreOffice logo) LibreOffice is the most popular free and open source office suite – and now it's available for your smartphone or tablet. * (Animation of scrolling through a document) With LibreOffice Viewer, you can access your documents, spreadsheets and presentations in many formats, including Open Document and Office Open XML. * (Animation of spreadsheet) LibreOffice Viewer is based on the the same engine as the desktop application, for maximum consistency across platforms. * (Animation of editing mode) In addition, an experimental editing option is available, so you can update your documents on the go. * (Picture of the icon) So try it today! Download it, use it, and give our community feedback to help us improve it! What does everyone think? Anything else we should mention or focus on? Should we talk about the experimental editing mode at all, or make a more prominent request for bug reports? Thanks!
