Hi all, As a background, just a Debian user. This is a request. It would be nice if people could also make libreoffice presentation templates in addition to all the loveliness that has been happening on the Debian artwork page [1].
1. http://wiki.debian.org/DebianArt/Themes/ That being said I have found it sad to see not many or even few presentation templates which could be used for making presentations about Debian having nice backgrounds. Presentations like this one [2] 2. http://wiki.debian.org/DebianIndia/DebianUtsav2012?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=Shirish-presentation-sicsr-debian-utsav-odp OR find it at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianIndia/DebianUtsav2012 Now it would be nice and in fact better if people could make background themes for presentations. I for one would appreciate the more variety as well as various people who make presentations about Debian in various technical conferences and wherever. If we get a few happening, it might be possible to also call them to be packaged under something like libreoffice-debian-themes or something like that. A benefit for such a package would be it would be easy to remember and locate the person who made the theme as I like to credit them at the end. Unfortunately I don't remember who made this template :( otherwise would have credited them. If somebody knows the author please lemme know. This of course that will be a long-term thing perhaps, even if we have 10-15 presentation templates (backgrounds) I could ask/request the debian-libreoffice if making and maintaining such a package would be possible which should beneficial to both libreoffice the package as well and Debian users, Developers as well. On a side note, openclipart just got a big upgrade today, add to which a new maintainer. ~$ aptitude show openclipart-png Package: openclipart-png State: installed Automatically installed: yes Version: 2.0-1 Priority: extra Section: graphics Maintainer: Martin Kelly <[email protected]> Uncompressed Size: 655 M Suggests: gimp Conflicts: openclipart (< 0.10+dfsg-3) Description: clip art in PNG format The Open Clip Art Library is a collection of 100% license-free, royalty-free, and restriction-free art that you can use for any purpose. This package contains the images in Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format.

I would be exploring the new clipart for sometime and seeing what got added to the package. :) If people do make the templates perhaps a good idea would be to put them in the artwork page itself [1] as an attachment. I have no idea though if the wiki pages have limits to number of attachments or sizes therein or maybe a link to some place where the template might be hosted. Lastly, please CC me as I'm not subscribed to the list. Regards to all those who are making the themes, my favorites at the moment are Journey and Growing, more so because lot of love and care has gone behind them and they are fuller sets :) Looking forward for comments. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
