Hi everybody, I was beginning to create an openSUSE template for Impress presentations and I was in the needing to write the words "openSUSE - Discover it" or something like that but the guidelines say that we don't must to change the original font. But there is no reference to this font in the Artwork section of the wiki, so searching the web I found the name: Cholla and, for my surprise, is a commercial font. I don't know if we need to add this to the 2010 Priorities List for marketing but if we pretend to create and release marketing stuff like this we need to do something about it.

You are right, we cannot use the Cholla font for general use. Jimmac has created a very nice open sourced version of the font called Fifth Leg, which some of us have used in presentations. But you point out accurately that we need to make this clearer to people what to use and where to find it. http://jimmac.musichall.cz/log/?p=441 Thanks for bringing it up, Bryen Yunashko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Thanks for bringing it up,

Francisco, where did you find Cholla mentioned so that it can get changed? Anybody taking this AI?

Here: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-artwork/2007-06/msg00002.html and here: http://lazyubuntu.com/open-source-project-logo-font-collections.html BTW, download link at http://jimmac.musichall.cz/log/?p=441 is broken. But I found an rpm package with the FifthLeg-Bold.ttf file installed on /usr/share/splashy/themes/openSUSE but it needs to be installed manually using KDE Control Center to be used on common applications (like Gimp or OO). Jimmac provides a otf version that cannot be installed using KDE Control Center.

After it is installed go to YaST type down Fifth and check on it to install it.

If you want to install Fifth-Leg on your openSUSE, the easiest way is installing via 1-click-install. http://software.opensuse.org/search?p=1&baseproject=ALL&q=fifth-leg-font Best, -- _/_/ Satoru Matsumoto - openSUSE Member - Japan _/_/ _/_/ Marketing/Weekly News/openFATE Screening Team _/_/ _/_/ mail: helios_reds_at_gmx.net / irc: HeliosReds _/_/ _/_/ http://blog.geeko.jp/author/heliosreds _/_/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Hi,

...

But there is no reference to this font in the Artwork section of the wiki, so searching the web I found the name: Cholla and, for my surprise, is a commercial font.

There is a font called fifth leg ;) and second u can find such a template since a long time in the wiki

...

I don't know if we need to add this to the 2010 Priorities List for marketing but if we pretend to create and release marketing stuff like this we need to do something about it.
