Welcome, fellow Bounty Ninja! :D Great work on the slides... I love the background pattern. Fun and Fedora-like, better looking than a plain background yet not distracting. Excellent. Also love the cute little Fedora-features bullet points. :) As for critique... Overall I like it but there's a few small things I think need a little adjustment. Just ideas, see what you do with 'em! ~ I thought the black from the background gradient was a little too dark, so I made it dark grey instead. I put a new version in the edited .odp, but there's an even newer one in the .svg and .png (made the pattern a little less obvious). ~ If you expand the left border of the "Presentation Title" text to the left border of the slide, it won't change position anymore when you change the text (which it did in my OpenOffice). Seems like a weird bug/setting in OOo... ~ I made the text from the "Questions" slide the same as the "Topic..." slides, I personally think it looks a little better if they're similar. And even smaller nitpicks: ~ The license text in the bottom right corner isn't equally space from the right border and the bottom. Moved it down a bit to correct this. ~ I changed "Presented By:" to "Presented by" because I think it looks a little cleaner. Opinions may vary on this though. Darn, I just noticed it isn't aligned with the text below it now... Needs an edit. ~ Made some other small edits to the layout of the "Questions" slide: moved the license down a bit, removed the : from "Contact:", made the Fedora logo the same size as the text next to it and placed it all in the bottom right corner. Again, just my opinion. Gosh I sound mean here... I'm no expert so take all this with a grain of salt. Hope some of it is useful! :) Looking forward to having you on the team, Jef Edited slide: http://schendje.fedorapeople.org/temp/Slide%20Deck%20Template%20Jef.odp Edited background: http://schendje.fedorapeople.org/temp/slide-mockup-1.png Edited background source: http://schendje.fedorapeople.org/temp/slide-mockup-jef.svg _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
