Introduction

Hello everyone,

My name is Ivan, and I am (or try to be) an active member of the OpenOffice.org Art and Website projects. The biggest contribution I have made to OOo so far has been as the lead designer of the OOo website during the 2007 redesign and the Project Renaissance logo, and I hope to do much more in the future as my skill set increases.

A little bit about me: I'm 20, live in New Zealand and will soon be starting the final year of my BA/BSc conjoint majoring in Computer Science & Psychology under Science; Sociology & English under Arts. I also have a website, where I ramble too much but not often enough.

Current Tasks

  • Discussing the prospects of a new project that would handle OOo's branding/visual identity

Mailing Lists

Regularly

  • Website
  • Art

Less Frequently

Visual Design Ideas

  • Spruce up Help - ask about rendering engine (HTML) and the possibilities (if there is an HTML engine, it could be used to power an OOo dashboard?)
