Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Hi :) I liked all of Paulo José's work but this one was my favourite for showing the LibreOffice folded corner at the top-right. There were other that were straight-on or only slightly angled which i also liked quite a lot but this one was my favourite. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8amZZUjYeFM/TVl89VjQ3LI/AZw/hHa72Enm1Tg/s1600/wallpaper+02.png Regards from Tom :) From: Marc Paré m...@marcpare.com To: marketing@libreoffice.org Sent: Tue, 15 February, 2011 2:17:34 Subject: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork Le 2011-02-14 17:09, leif a écrit : Hi all, Just want you to have a look at these artworks by Paulo José http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-u5jp_Di8J_c/TVl0IFSTwQI/AZs/gbNUjE2Cnr4/s1600/wallpaper+01.png g http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8amZZUjYeFM/TVl89VjQ3LI/AZw/hHa72Enm1Tg/s1600/wallpaper+02.png g I would like to encourage others to do similar work :-) Neat! These are really nice. It would be nice to have such wallpaper for all the applications in LibreOffice suite for conferences where 6 computers were set to show the applications to booth visitors. LibreOffice should also show somewhere also. Great and impressive artwork!

[libreoffice-marketing] LibreOffice in the Press page has been formatted
The LibreOffice in the Press[1] page has been re-formatted and the NL articles put into their respective pages. It was just getting too messy with the amount of English news articles that are being posted.

[libreoffice-marketing] Press clippings
Hi, Not sure if this is duplicating existing efforts. Looked at the press clipping page on the wiki and thought maybe not: Looking over my tweets from the last few weeks I pulled these: Japanese http://journal.mycom.co.jp/news/2011/02/04/079/ Swedish http://www.idg.se/2.1085/1.366913/rappare-upplevelse-i-nyslappt-ubuntu-alfa Czech http://www.abclinuxu.cz/poradna/linux/show/326974 Now those are not in-depth articles, so not sure they should be listed, but perhaps at least noted somewhere.

[libreoffice-marketing] two articles about the decline of OOo and the rise of LibreOffice
The following two articles are about OOo and LibreOffice. Mostly, to me, how OOo is loosing its user base to LO and that OOo is loosing ground with the features that LO now includes in its 3.3 version over OOo's 3.3 version. These two articles make me think that if this type of negative press keeps up, Oracle will soon dump OOo as a useless product line.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Great artwork
Yes, he's doing great work, too. I want to see that implemented. But I really loved what you did there on Deviantart, and you will remember that a lot of other people did, too. I really don't want that to become a forgotten thing. I wish my LibreOffice looked like that now. How can I hack my installation to apply your skin? If you find time, give me some clues and I might follow through and build the material and write instructions to make a hacked installation.

[libreoffice-marketing] Reminder re: use of LibreOffice and LibO
This is just a reminder (Italo correct me if I am wrong). We had agreed that we would, for now, market the LibreOffice and NOT make use of LibO in our marketing materials. Italo suggested that we could, if we wanted to, make use of LibO on staff manning the booths and maybe raffle off LibO shirts as rare T-shirts. We want people to remember the LibreOffice brand before going on to any shorter-catchy name.
