=== Droid versus Cantarell ===
=== FUDCon T-shirt ===


[[User:emichan|Emily Dirsh]] created a web application<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/003011.html</ref> for easy comparison of Droid Sans and Cantarell, so the Design Team can chose one of them as a branding body text "Everyone go and try it out so we can pick a font already" and with this visual comparison a number of team members favoured<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/003016.html</ref> Cantarell "I'm definitely liking Cantarell more. Like Nicu said, it feels it has more breathing spacing and I think is a bit easier to read." The topic was also discussed at the team's weekly meeting<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-August/003084.html</ref> and it was decided to try Cantarell and look for alternatives for unsupported locales, like Cyrillic and CJK.

=== Logo Updates ===

[[User:ianweller|Ian Weller]] reported<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/003041.html</ref> about his meeting with [[User:pchestek|Pamela Chestek]] about logo changes "Yesterday I met with Pam Chestek, Red Hat's Senior IP Attorney, about

some of the requested and proposed changes to Fedora's trademarks", the short conclusion is: the TM sign on the logo is changed to the Comfortaa font, the font for the logo wordmark itself remains the same Bryant 2, Comfortaa is going to be used also instead of MgOpen Modata in the Foundations and FUDCon artwork. Pamela added<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/003045.html</ref> additional explanation about the decision to keep the logo unmodified "It is a significant undertaking to rebrand, but in addition to the sheer work of pushing out a change, the lack of consistency during the transition adversely impacts recognizability and creates (at a minimum) subconscious uncertainty about the authenticity and reliability of the brand" and logo distribution "we're pretty clear in all the information
we provide about when and how someone has permission to use our logos, so the fact that someone gets their hands on an svg (or png for that
matter) can't be construed as permission to use the logo"

FUDCon T-shirt

Emily Dirsh proposed[1] a T-shirt design for the Tempe FUDCon "It's inspired by the art of the Hohokam who once lived in the area" and after an initial warm receive[2] from Máirín Duffy "Wow that is **gorgeous**, I love it! I would love a shirt with that design in it!" she followed[3] with a couple of variations "Ooh, I love the idea of a navy shirt! Yeah, the advantage to a single-color design is it's very easy to adjust the color." Jef van Schendel also proposed[4] a few remixes "Here's a few quick and dirty stabs at a dark shirt version".

Design Team Blog

Máirín Duffy announced[1] a new communication channel for the team "Thanks to Sijis we now have a team blog!! (Yay!!)" and she invited authors to join "Some members of the design team we couldn't add to the blog because their accounts weren't in the Fedora blogs system. If you'd like to be added, please log in to Fedora blogs to create your account, and let me know you've done it so I can request your account be added."
