Hello Eren,

Thanks for contact us.  It sounds like you have a good mix of skills!

We have a set of pages on our website for new volunteers to review.
You can find them here:

http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/

If you've worked with an open source project before much of this will
be review.  But if you are new to open source communities the
introductory pages have some useful background in how we are organized
and how we do things.

There are also specific pages on getting started with areas like
development, including instructions for how to get started building
Apache OpenOffice.  This is the first step (hurdle?) for new
developers.  If you get stuck don't be shy, send questions to the dev
mailing list.

The OpenOffice product itself does not contain a lot of artwork.  We
have a logo, recently updated, that is incorporated into the Splash
screen and About box , for example.  But our marketing project does
more work with graphics, designing artwork for the website, social
media, brochures to hand out at conferences, etc.  If you are
interested in those areas you should sign up for our marketing mailing
list, market...@openoffice.apache.org, and introduce yourself there.

Regards,

-Rob
