Hi Kenneth, One spontaneous feed back this morning ... Of course, in an enterprise, the name, branding, logo, website and coherence are one great important point. And in most case, the enterprise ask to professional designers to care about this. And in such a relation (expert-client), the custumer can choose what he like or not, or choose another provider. And ... when the client need a flyer or anything, for a special event, he can ask the provider - and get again a choice for that. Is that right ? One context => one average process Now ... openSUSE ... Could we take 3 minutes to "compare" ? to analyse the differences ? Not the same at all, of course. I just give you a few examples : - OSC 11 Nürberg (first time I came) : as a "new visitors", the logo was great, but much more the plush ... it was FUN !! Each one has his geeko, ans openSUSE pictures went around (many ppl with a "symbol" on shoulder"). Now ? where are the geekos plush ? ah ok, just for SUSE ? (I dont know the motivations or reason, I just can analyse the outside result/effect) Last year, I was taking care of the FOSDEM booth (with Ancor, Bruno, yorgo, alexandro ..) - and we received (for the first time ... the "booth box" ... after many waiting months, if I remember well) So, we opened the gift ;-) and discovered the flyers, posters ... (I went to your talk at OSC13 ... and ok you explained your choices ... back pens and USBkeys, technical things ...OK nice talk) Again if I remember well, there was an article written about material booth (after the fosdem). And of course you DID GREAT job !! Did anybody from the design team noticed what we gave as a feed back ? (no reaction) For example : green is nice, but green beside green upon green ... make absolute no contrast on a booth ...OK ... this mail is not to start a talk on technical & look details (size of logo, respecting or not). You are an expert, and a designer, and that's fine. According to me, there are 3 "process bug" to solve : - 1. when openSUSE guys need to organize an event, and we saw calls on the project list (for OSC 15 and for mini summit scale), there were no proposition at all - Except Andy ... so presently, the big question would be : who do the design work in openSUSE (better than ... oh openSUSE designer should respect the rules) ? So what ? how can geekos organize event (all around) and have specific posters ? -2. when you suggest logo, posters, material ... where you open to change a detail ? I dont think so. The community did not have a choice. One color is like boring ... all the same ... Could we remember that "let's have FUN" was essential ? so What ? where is openSUSE choice ? -3. of course Andres, it would be the FUN to get a new logo, website and plush (I'm thinking to KDE Gonki) for openSUSE, but you know it's a long work, hours, ideas, brainstormings, creation and ... CHOICES (like it was donr for the china mini-summit : ppl could vote) So what ? Are you (Kenneth) the openSUSE designer ? And having time to do that great project ? Or can the board call for providers to suggest project&quot ? = This is a question for the board When openSUSE ppll do mini summit, who is able to do the job ? so lol, "this email might sound like the beating of a drum". OK you are a professional, but you ask to the community to respect design rules ... but the first problem (to find a solution) is to get competent ppl to do the job (website, logo, posters, flyers ...) when ppl need (as scale), thanks for reading and have fun today ;-) Françoise -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
