Hi :) Wow!! I really like those :)  On the GS Guide would it be good to have the logos for all the apps?  Perhaps top-right corner or in the centre?  I saw an excellent wallpaper once but i'm not sure it would scale well.  Anyway, i like the GS one as it is now, err as the draft design is now

Hi :) If you can get people keen on the topic then feature requests don't always take years! Choice can be confusing.  If you tell people not to use certain options then they are likely to  be even more determined to "accidentally" try them out.  That might make them more productive as they fin

Hi :) Yes, i think something like that.  OOo4Kids has 4 modules; Writer. Calc, Impress and Draw.  I guess that when you close, for example, a Writer document LO stays open but shows only the basic toolbar at the top, the borders and a sort of greyish space in the middle that has a splash-scree

Hi :) To build and strength brand image and brand identity it's better if we avoid fragmenting it too much.  It's difficult enough for people to understand that a company and it's product are not the same thing.  Quite odd really because when they go into a shop they don't accidentally try to

Hi :) For trifold leaflets in 'my' company we generally go for more space between each of the 3 sections on each page.  It makes folding easier.  Even a misplaced fold still looks ok if you have more space between the 3 sections.  Btw does anyone know how to decrease the margin space consisten
