The Create Project Refreshed
On the way towards raising $15K for Libre Graphics Meeting, with the help of the super awesome Robert Martinez, I refreshed the Create Project main website with a new logo and rapidly developed designed. We never did a complete launch of the Create Project, and never had a logo. So, lets consider this the next launch launch launch (please write news stories about this project and Libre Graphics Meeting 
.
I also updated the text on the front of the site which says what we are doing with the project space:
We catalyze communication and sharing between Free and Open Source creative software communities like Inkscape, Gimp, Scribus, Open Clip Art library, Open Font Library and more. We do Libre Graphics Meeting and share Specifications. Join our Mailing List, use the Wiki, or chat at #create on irc.freenode.net.
If your project is not represented here, and you do free and open source creative software (audio, video, image and text), you are interested in collaboration and sharing, and you want it to be part of this project please do comment on this thread. Also, if you are into this theme and project, you can check out the design and other documents in the new OSUOSL powered SVN module.
Create is pushing a few specifications right now such as:
- Shared resources v0.1.0.
- Swatches – colour file format
- Colour management Standards at ColourWiki with some overlapping areas [1]
- Icon set specification from Tango project
- User interaction implementations
- OpenRaster – general multilayered bitmap exchange format
- Open Color Standard – free ourselves from the grip of pantone!

- Unified plug-in API for processing raster graphics
- Conference The Libre Graphics Meeting 2008 planning page (and for past LGMs)
- Conference_2009 The Libre Graphics Meeting 2009 planning page

The project is open to all types of involvement. Also, if your apps isn’t free and open, feel free to participate as well in development community specs the FreeDesktop.org way! Oh, and if you didn’t look, everything on the wiki is CC BY-SA licensed.
