Organizing our swag designs a little better
by Máirín Duffy 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hi folks, I think it would be good if we could make it easier for ambassadors to order swag. Right now, our assets are kind of all over the place. I put together a first stab at trying to organize some designs we've used before: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Duffy/brandstuff Do you see any designs that are missing that we should have here? Do you have any ideas for new designs we could make that would be useful to ambassadors? Let's brainstorm and see what else might be useful? Some points: - These are for materials ambassadors order to be printed. Let's not worry about graphics or stuff you can print on a home printer, because I don't think those are as much as a problem for ambassadors. - Since they are for print, we'll need to make CMYK, embedded font / fonts-to-paths, print-ready PDFs available for the ambassadors to grab and send off to their vendors. (Common problems we've had with designs in the past is RGB instead of CMYK colors, and incorrect or old fonts) - Each design might have several different print files. For example, A-2 has been printed on both Fedora pens and Fedora lanyards, and I think even tablecloths. Since different swag are different sizes, we'll need different print-ready artwork files - one per application - even if the design is basically the same. - Any designs that use MgModata (besides the FUDcon logotype) should use Comfortaa now, I updated the ones I could. I'm going to send the ambassadors a similar email to see if what is here so far works and to see if there is anything else they think they might need. Maybe a blog post too :) Thanks, ~m

Idea: Logo for Fedora Activity Day
by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Just an idea, As i'm planning to have more FAD in the future, I think it would be really good if FAD have its own branding logo. One suggestion here, http://fedora.my/img/fad.png remixed from fedora remix logo. but I believe the design team have better ideas , or argument why FAD shouldnt get its own logo. -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail / KageSenshi Inigo Consulting (FOSS/Plone Development, Training & Services) http://www.inigo-tech.com Fedora Malaysia Contributor & Ambassador http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331

The templates for flyers/posters ready to slightly modify and print is a nice idea. I don't know if fedora already have this kind of asset, but I consider that would be useful for both.

Hello guys, Are graphical wallpapers allowed in the Supplemental wallpaper entries? If so, I am working on a few right now. Could anyone critique them for me after I finish them? Thanks a lot! ---Ryan "For God do loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, so that whoever believes in Him should not die, but have eternal life." - John 3:16
