From kde-artists Sun Jan 20 14:49:19 2002 From: Torsten Rahn Date: Sun, 20 Jan 2002 14:49:19 +0000 To: kde-artists Subject: K-ARTIST:FAQ: X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-artists&m=101153825526699 This is my first attempt for an FAQ "How to contribute to KDE as an artis= t" -- snip -- If you want your stuff to be included with KDE send it to one of the arti= sts=20 who already do have a CVS-account (or to icons@kde.org). If your work is=20 excellent and/or you are contributing on a regular basis you'll get a=20 CVS-account. If you get a CVS-account please also put your development-stuff (i.e.=20 psd-files, xcf-files etc) into CVS (module: art-devel). This is how open=20 source works and that's also the magic which will help our artwork to imp= rove=20 even faster! Any major changes should first be discussed on the mailinglist=20 kde-artists@kde.org. In addition you are always invited to chat with us o= n irc.kde.org #kde-artists . Artwork which is meant for the inclusion into KDE in general MUST have=20 to be free of copyright-issues. Always use your own artwork only (or artw= ork=20 which belongs to the kde-project already!). Create your artwork from scra= tch=20 and DO NOT use any clipart or stuff from other projects. Icons which are meant for the inclusion into the default-icontheme: - should not mimic Windows XP /Mac OS X but have an own style instead (wi= th=20 some elements still reminding of KDE). - have to work (i.e. look good) with and without alphablending. They shou= ld be=20 still easy to recognize in 16x16 pixels. - shouldn't be too far off from the look of the icons which already do ex= ist=20 in KDE.
