Art and such

Hiya, your art looks fantastic! I'd love for you to get involved in Community:Art - there are a lot of open art projects at Art Wanted that could use a little love. Feel free to ping me if you have any questions or comments.

Tue Feb 26

Hello Diane,

The group would be welcome at our offices Tuesday after hours, say some time after 5:30. How many people do you expect? It helps us to have names in advance that we can leave for the desk downstairs. --Sj talk 15:53, 18 February 2008 (EST)

sj, I don't know the total count and names yet, but last month there was about 15 people. I will get the info to you ASAP.--AuntiMame 15:54, 18 Feb 2008

Shirt screening

Depends on what we want to do - I've done events that involved silkscreening, and it's not generally a one day process. You have to prepare the screens ahead of time, get ahold of shirts, screen them, let them dry, and then distribute them. I'd also be careful with multicolored designs, since lining screens up can be tricky. However, if we get a small number of designs and people want to make shirts for themselves, that would be doable.

"includeonly" categories in templates

So that the template does not get listed as a "boston area user", but everyone who includes that template on their userpage does, there is a category that is bracketed within "< includeonly >" tags. You left the Category: out of its title. here's the diff. --Sj talk 15:21, 27 February 2008 (EST)

Next Boston meetup?

Hi Diane, I'm talking to Rachel Hunt who is planning a service trip for her scohol to Costa Rica in mid-April and thinking about bringing some XOs along. She'd like to get input from the community and from people who have their own ideas, or have brought their XOs into local schools. If there's a boston meetup before April 12 or so that would be perfect; otherwise perhaps we could get a few interested people together... what do you think? --Sj talk 17:25, 23 March 2008 (EDT)

XO Repair Shops -- graphical guidelines / icons / templates

You are good at this! (Just from looking at your user page).
And in some email of yours to some mailing list I believe I saw you mention your affinity to hardware / repair / spare parts (you also mentioned a web shop).
Could you please click on Art_wanted and have a look at the new XO Repair Shop line item?
The Birmingham Shop will be opening for business on April 21st. The last conference call with Adam indicated that there will be more comming and all could benefit from some corporate design elements.

thanks for cleaning up wad's speech!

I was way too tired of staring at my screen afterwards to go back and catch typos, so thanks for doing that. :) Mchua 22:23, 22 May 2008 (EDT)

interested in stocking parts?

Thanks for the offer, Diane! Can you put that info into the survey so we have it all in one place when Adam, Kim, and I go through things next week? Mchua 09:53, 23 May 2008 (EDT)
