Re: [libreoffice-design] Need help?

Hi Kevin, Drini!

Nice to meet you :-) And thanks a lot for your offers!

And just some small addition to Bernhard's mail - there is already a
list of tasks we are working on (a bit hidden, I agree *G*). Some of
them relate to create or extend available artwork:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Work_Items

Watch out for the "todo" marker ... for example, we miss high quality
"high contrast artwork" for the branding in LibreOffice / BrOffice. It
might be a simple start, but this would be absolutely helpful for a lot
of people if included in one of the very next releases.

Well, maybe this helps a bit ... 

Cheers,
Christoph
