Re: Web Site Screenshots
Hi everyone,
I am new to the team, but am trying to follow up as much as I can.
I know it may seem difficult sometimes to work with me, since when I
work on something I expect the other side to be as clear about their
demands as they can, which I do realize is not often possible and the
industry I am entering also teaches, but believe me when I say when the
communication is right, and attention to detail is paid, all work will
be done accordingly.
To the website issue, I cannot, nor do I consider myself a web designer,
_yet_. Currently I am taking my three-months long internship at a local
design company, so practically I am available, not sure to what extent,
but I am.
I have done a few small web designs and about 3 full websites in Joomla,
but that was years ago. Joomla, however, is simple and could be an
alternative for us - to take a suitable pre-coded Joomla template and
redesign that.
I am confident we have many skilled people with us who know their way
around with the code, so Joomla, that is just like Ubuntu built by the
community and with all its flexibility could be altered to anyone's
desires. Then again I saw the work of some of our designers and again I
am confident, that together we can achieve great things.
_All it takes is proper communication_.
I know we are busy, some of us extremely, and that is why we have to
continue in a massive recruitment campaign to fill up our ranks. This
campaign would involve the creation of recruitment banners/posters/other
propaganda material to hire designers to join the cause.
There are many artists who simply don't know where to fit, then there
are those who are yet to experience the light of the stage, and there
are so many art collectives/websites centred around art that I lost
count of and are the best place to start searching at.
Those being a part of such communities should start posting blog
entries, forum threads and even in the news section of that site with
the approval of admins that we are looking for people with skill,
dedication and the right amount of enthusiasm for our cause because what
we do is karma, but a good one.

Hey Team,
Hi :)
Just saw that we have 13.10 / Gnome 3.8 screenshots up at
http://ubuntugnome.org/screenshots/.
Please can we get these updatedwhenever you have some time
Thanks :)
The whole website MUST be changed and it seems no one is following up
with this issue. While I didn't give up yet, I feel my efforts to
chase this issue is helpless/useless as neither the marketing nor the
artwork sub-teams are following up. Above all, I have not yet seen a
serious draft to replace the current website.
I highly understand real life comes first (myself was and still busy
with), this task was pending for more than one cycle and if I remember
correctly, we wanted to do that from 14.04 cycle. It means 3 cycles so
far ... that's way too much!

If you think we need to update the screenshots until the website is
done, please go ahead and I will do the upload for the new screenshots.
Thank you!
