Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Hi all, Good to see your interest on my 3D stuff! Thanks for the nice comments! About to make generic wallpapers to press kit, it would be an actual pleasure. Although, today I resume my university research and my vacations will end in a week, so I'll have really few time and I'll need time enough to complete the wallpapers. When do you think a deadline could be dated? Can you two - and who would like to join - help me with some ideas? Cheers, ~Paulo -- Paulo José O.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Well, actually it's not a skin or something like that, but just images made in Inkscape. I think to make it installable, first we need change the way of LibreOffice draws the screen (maybe including some libs like Cairo or something else) to make possible a lot of new things visually. And for sure it would take much more time to debug and polish the code, testing in many systems... At last, I think (*think*) it's not possible make it right now. My though now it's LibreOffice need many changes and corrections in another areas before we can do something like to renew completely the user interface. Maybe when Citrus project is in a advanced level, I can join myself and help with some design ideas. :) Thank you for your interest! :D ~Paulo On 15-02-2011 17:50, David Nelson wrote: Yes, he's doing great work, too.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Yeah, you're not wrong. The camera's perspective (50mm) makes the icons look a bit different. But this impression is mainly because they are placed in a circular arrangement, Base and Writer are rotated by 30 degrees and Calc and Draw by 10 degrees in camera direction. Just Impress is set exactly front to camera.

We had agreed a couple months ago that the use of LibO as short form would not be encouraged as we wanted to get the LibreOffice brand name known to people. This was also said in context of marketing materials. I don't think that this would apply to file naming convention as sometimes we need to abbreviate file names to make them fit. As Italo says do not take this as an order, but IMO, I think that we would want to make our official name known before advertising a short form. Many people still have never heard of LibreOffice. Just in case you are not aware, Italo Vignoli is our marketing lead. We rely very much on his marketing expertise and wisdom. Cheers Marc -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** Hi :) Yes, for internal communications we have been mostly using LibO or occasionally LO but we want to avoid that getting out-there to the outside world. At least for now. Outsiders, or people on the fringes will use a lot of different names until they are familiar with the 'correct one'. We really want to establish LibreOffice as the 'correct name' and that could take a long time. In linux the 3 letters "lib" at the start of a name are 'reserved' for libraries and after those 3 letters should be the functionality or a nickname. In a similar way the letter K (or Qt) at the start of a name often indicates that the project is built for the KDE desktop. A G often indicates something for the Gnome desktop environment. We (the wider OpenSource and linux communities) try to avoid being tooo strict about any rules or guidelines and usually encourage diversity. Following rules too closely can stifle innovation and creativity. Regards from Tom :) -- Paulo José O.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Hi Christoph! Yeah, this request was done in my blog too. The suggested resolution is 1600px large. Would be it enough? For make sure, I'm thinking to render at 2500px. (I know some developers have even bigger screens... *my dream*) And, as I said few minutes ago, today I'm having some left time, so your ask will be answered sooner than you was thinking. :) I just did not it before because it's not just re-render the pictures, but I need too increase the quality of textures (export again in Inkscape) and the mesh resolution (with a subdivision process called SubSurface) and it increase a bit the render time too. But today I'm sure it'll be possible. ;) I know you are not in a hurry.

But I can easily change that in the Gimp files. I just thought to emphasize the LibreOffice words making the others white. But initially I was worried about the background be too bright to do it. Thank you for your commentary! :) Paulo, I really enjoy "my" new wallpaper, but (a very small but) it looks a bit pixelated on my screen. So if (important: if, because there is no urgency) you have some time left, could you please render them in an even higher resolution? I ask, because there might be some more adopters when offering wallpaper sizes that match the (usually?) larger screens of the developers ;-) Marc, thanks a lot for shaping the wallpaper wiki page! I've corrected two minor issues, but I found it a bit difficult to find the "correct" picture. I would love to tweak it a bit more, but I miss the time ... so if anybody could have a look at it, this would be great! One of my favorite pages to browse wallpapers (although no wiki page), is the Gnome Backgrounds collection - maybe serving as an inspiration: http://art.gnome.org/backgrounds Here is how I did the table for the LibreOffice logos: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding#Resources Thanks to you all - it's amazing to see that there is "not only" LibreOffice the software :-) Cheers, Christoph -- Paulo José O.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Hi all, These are the bigger versions: Wallpaper 1: 16:10 AR | 1920x1080px: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Wallpaper-LibreOffice-1-1920px.png 4:3 AR | 1600x1200px: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Wallpaper-LibreOffice-1-1600px.png Wallpaper 2: 16:10 AR | 1920x1080px: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Wallpaper-LibreOffice-2-1920px.png 4:3 AR | 1600x1200px: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Wallpaper-LibreOffice-2-1600px.png They toke some hours to render... and still can't achieve the exactly same look of them previous versions. :/ Maybe because I edited (post-production) everything in Blender this time (GIMP is horrible to edit bigger sizes - in my computer). Could somebody help me to do and upload JPEG versions, if they are needed? And what you think about to allow upload BLEND files to the wiki?

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Thanks for both compliment and updating the wiki! I think JPG's are not needed for now too.

Unless people really start asking for .jpg versions I don't think you need to worry. Thanks a lot again for your fine work. Cheers Marc -- Paulo José O.
