=== Improved Document Templates ===
=== FUDCon T-shirt ===


[[MairinDuffy|Máirín Duffy]] proposed on @fedora-art a new project for Fedora 11 "finding and developing nice-looking, general-purpose templates we could then package up for programs like OpenOffice.org Writer, OpenOffice.org Impress, Scribus, Inkscape, Gimp, etc.", proposal received[2] with enthusiasm by [[SethKenlon|Seth Kenlon]], who also asked bout font requirements in those templates "does anyone know if there are special requirements in terms of fonts we could actually use and expect upstream to definitely have?", a question answered[3] quickly by Máirín "I think we should only assume users will have access to the fonts packaged for Fedora proper. If we use a font that isn't included in the default live media installation, then we should require the Fedora font package needed."

=== Postprocessing in Icons ===
<references/>
 
[[MartinSourada]] raised[1] a technical debate on @fedora-art, questioning if the desktop icons should be always generated directly from the SVG sources or if some additional raster post-processing is allowed "My reason for this is that while I am unable to achieve, to my eye,
perfect antialiasing in some cases when using direct export in inkscape, but after exporting it in bigger size applying some filters and resizing to desired size I am able to achieve, to my eye, better results", a question still under debate, awaiting input for contributors with more experience in icon creation.

=== FirstAidKit Artwork ===
 
[[MariaLeandro|Maria Leandro]] resumed[1] the work on an older DesignService request[2] "I made some tries and finally came up something he like" a graphic received with only a small concern[3] from [[MikeLanglie|Mike Langlie]] "The Red Cross owns the trademark to the red cross icon/logo. They have sent cease and desist orders to game companies that use it as an icon for health re-ups. They do suggest using a green cross or white cross on a green background instead as a generic alternative", something easily addressed by Maria[4]

=== T-Shirt Logo Design Tool ===
 
Following a chat on the IRC channel, [[CharlieBrej|Charlie Brej]] followed[1] on @fedora-art with a small application which can be used to create T-shirt designs flom 'tag clouds': "I wrote a little tool to create these 'word splat' things with the idea of using the generated images as the Fudcon t-shirt designs". There is a strong possibility to see a number of graphics created during the upcoming year with this tool.

FUDCon T-shirt

Emily Dirsh proposed[1] a T-shirt design for the Tempe FUDCon "It's inspired by the art of the Hohokam who once lived in the area" and after an initial warm receive[2] from Máirín Duffy "Wow that is **gorgeous**, I love it! I would love a shirt with that design in it!" she followed[3] with a couple of variations "Ooh, I love the idea of a navy shirt! Yeah, the advantage to a single-color design is it's very easy to adjust the color." Jef van Schendel also proposed[4] a few remixes "Here's a few quick and dirty stabs at a dark shirt version".

Design Team Blog

Máirín Duffy announced[1] a new communication channel for the team "Thanks to Sijis we now have a team blog!! (Yay!!)" and she invited authors to join "Some members of the design team we couldn't add to the blog because their accounts weren't in the Fedora blogs system. If you'd like to be added, please log in to Fedora blogs to create your account, and let me know you've done it so I can request your account be added."
