I think one of the last comments summed up everything nicely: "I think it is important to allow any artist and designer to work in the way (s)he likes best. But it's important at the same time to work on a consistent and professional branding and visual identity. "Combining these goals is not easy - but it is crucial if we consider our LibreOffice design as one of the goals to reach more users and contributors." One issue is there a need for local variations while keeping a recognizable brand and identity. I think the slogan used might vary because an English slogan may make no sense in another language. -- Jay Lozier [email protected] -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/design/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
