I could well have a go at this. I have just used Impress to make slides for my talk at Software Freedom Day. I put a lot of effort into the fonts, colours etc and people liked my slides.
So, if I could get the OOoCon logo from somewhere, I would like to put something together. The guidelines below look reasonable enough. It is a template? In other words people are going to fill it up with their own words, pics etc so I shouldn't crowd the template too much. I assume that I should I start with a blank impress slide and make my template on it? I shouldn't worry about having those markers where pople can import pics etc onto their impress slide?

Thanks for the request - I think, there are several artists here able to create a high quality Impress template that not only contains the OOoCon logo, but use the graphical elements of OOo3 too. This would help us to create a visual identity for OOo3 - one of our mail tasks even if we haven't been able to work on that topic actively during the last months... > > Guidelines: > > * templates should be small (kB) > * templates should export well as pdfs > * templates should look ok if printed in black and white > * templates should be suitable for printing on ink jet printers I'd like to add * templates should be able to be presented in more or less bright rooms (IIRC the rooms are not darkened very much for OOoCon presentation), so a light background would be recommended. > and this year's OOoCon artwork is here > http://www.plio.it/ooocon-files/ That's the OOoCon logo, might be added to the OOoCon logo wiki page: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOo_Conference_Logos OOo3 artwork has been uploaded to the wiki: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/OOo3_Design (the colored balls there still show the OOo2 colors) There is an Impress template linked from the Art Wiki: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/File:Impress_template_thumb.png But I don't know if we can/should use this as basis for the OOoCon. > Any takers? Bernard, should people use the Art wiki for their proposals? Of course I'd like to see the work to be presented at the wiki, but I don't have the time to create the page http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/Gallery/ImpressTemplates (already linked from the Additional Artwork Gallery) tonight, as we're traveling back from holiday tomorrow. I'd copy and modify the Poster/Banner/Flyer page http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/Gallery/PostersBannersFlyers during the next days - if someone else wants to do it, don't hesitate.
