Re: [libreoffice-design] Using a Gallery table in the wiki to provide design resources?

Hi Bernhard,

I think it is a great idea!  It worked really well on the OOo wiki and I
think it will work again!

 Hi all,

 as this topic is relevant for design and marketing, I don't see a way to
 avoid cross-posting. Follow-up on the marketing list please.

 During the last weeks several people worked on design elements to be used
 in order to improve knowledge and public awareness for LibreOffice.

 Marc is working hard to put them all together on the marketing wiki, but I
 feel that we still miss an easy entry point for people interested in using
 such resources on their website, for marketing activities and so on.

 Back in OOo times we had a gallery showing different categories of such
 artwork which served quite well for people searching for a web button, a
 banner or a CD/DVD label.

 http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/Gallery

 Before I start working on migrating this gallery to our wiki (as I created
 it, there is no licensing issue), I'd like to ask your opinion:

 Do you think this is a good approach?

 In contrast to the OOo gallery I'd like to see this wiki page as entry
 point to the officially approved designs - positioned at the marketing area
 of the wiki (at least until we put them up on the website).

Agreed.  It should be explicit what objects in the gallery are official
and which ones are unofficial designs so that marketing can make really
good use of the area.  (We keep getting lots of questions on the design list
about different resources.)



 The development area on the design wiki might get a similar entry point
 (for contributors, including the official source file necessary for using
 them as basis for branding based design), but I think the marketing / user /
 supporter resources are more important at the moment.

Agreed.  It seems right now design is okay with sending links or making
temporary wiki pages for current projects (motif for example).



 Any questions? proposals? ideas?

Perhaps I will have more constructive feedback when the page starts to take
shape.

Cheers,
Jaron

I agree. This does seem to organize our material better.

Hi Bernhard!

I think this is a great idea and would speed up all the artwork 
progress. I really like this idea! It seems to be a unique place to put 
all our artworks! :D
It would be good to have a place to put our work in progress, or at 
least some links to our personal pages and other pages related to 
W.I.P.'s. :)
