[ubuntu-art] To Web Designers

[Thorsten Wilms]

Hi!

Since there seems to be a number of web designers on this list (btw, hi
Matteo!):

As you should know, Ubuntu has a new visual identity.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/VisualIdentity

A new theme will be rolled out on ubuntu.com. There are many, many
community websites that will need to see a refresh, too. To make this
easier for all the teams out there that might not have their own skilled
web/theme designers, there's an effort to build a collection of material
and themes for the most used platforms.

This should also increase consistency and hence brand recognition across
the wider Ubuntu universe, but there's no intention to have an army of
clones, there will be space for individual notes, as Ubuntu embraces
diversity (damn, do I sound like a marketing drone? ;).

Have a look at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/WebThemes

Questions are best carried over to
https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-website

and #ubuntu-website on IRC, freenode.net. newz2000 is the man, there.
