Hi all,
finally I have the time to write a short introduction on this list. My name is Matthias, 25 years old, living in Berlin and studying politics and management in Potsdam. Beside that I am active for FSFE since 2004, at the moment as Fellowship coordinator and deputy German coordinator.
FSFE always lacked designers who can help with leaflets, posters, small graphics like web banners, or graphics for presentations, etc. In the past, when someone needed one of the above things he ended up doing it on his own. Sometimes with not so nice results ;)
So our aim is to have a contact point, which people from the FSFE team can contact when they need nice graphics, or want to hear the opinion if this fits into FSFE's "corporate identity". So we created this mailinglist for this.
= What We Have =
*Logos* - FSFE and Fellowship Logo, plus some documents how to use them.
*Leaflets*
In the last month the situation very much improved. Thanks to Nils Buhlert we now have very nice leaflets, which we now managed to get autogenerated with Latex (see http://fsfeurope.org/documents/leaflets/ and at the moment http://download.fsfeurope.org/leaflets/ for the folders).
= In Progress =
*Posters*
Benjamin Kirschner also started making a FSFE poster, and Markus Meier is currently working on the new version.
= What we need for this group =
Make the style guide FSFE+Fellowship: (Nils once started with it). I can sent you all docuemnts I have, so we can make one document out of it. It is mainly gathering the information we have and put them in a sensible order.
And as already said above, we really need one central point where we can raise design questions.
I think it would be nice if everyone can sent a short introduction about himself to the list, so we know who is who.
I hope I did not forget anything important. If you have any questions please contact me!
Thank you, Matthias
