Introduction: Nicole Harris
Hi,
My name is Nicole Harris - I'm a web designer based in Melbourne, Australia. I've been using linux for a while now and am a recent convert to Fedora (previously I used ubuntu). I'd love to get involved - I'm specifically interested in learning more about UX design and participating in these types of projects. Some examples of my work: www.roi.com.au (this is my workplace - i redesigned their website last year, since then someone else has taken over the project, but my initial design is still *pretty much* there) www.sanremoballroom.com.au www.janetwolf.com.au (one of my really early designs...) By day I now focus on conversion based solutions for online marketing campaigns - this involves a/b and multivariate split testing. By night I am designing a couple of web apps (too early to show you any examples...!) with my partner who is a web developer. skills: Gimp, Inkscape HTML, CSS, Wordpress, Joomla Jquery (beginner) Looking forward to getting my hands dirty! Cheers, NIcole _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team |

Very impressive portfolio!

Awesome! I'm so glad to see you have so much open source tool experience :) Our normal process for joining the team is that we ask new recruits to take on a minor ticket in our tracking system as sort of practical/applied introduction to how the Fedora community works. You end up making connections and learning the Fedora infrastructure through that which powers you to taking on bigger projects. I don't know if the design ticket has been filed yet, but the Fedora infrastructure team (#fedora-admin on irc.freenode.net) yesterday was talking about needing a Fedora skin for a stickynotes web app they're looking to deploy. A test instance of it is available at: http://dcr226.co.uk/paste/sticky-notes We'd want, at a minimum, for the design/template to match our newer Fedora infrastructure templates such as for Fedora packages (I did the skin for this one): https://community.dev.fedoraproject.org/packages/inkscape Or Koji, our build system (Ryan Lerch, who is also based in Australia at the moment, did the skin for this): http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/ Let me know if this seems like an intro project you'd like to take on. Alternatively we could find something more UX-centric for you to take on since you have strong interest and ability in UX stuff. We do have a few pending usability assessments and mockup requests in the ticket system. Our list of open tickets is here: https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/report/1?asc=1&page=1 Anyway, I don't want to overload you with information; if the sticky-notes project looks interesting let me know and I can get a ticket for it assigned to you, otherwise let's chat more about potential UX projects? ~m _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team |

Hi Máirín,
Thanks for the warm welcome. The sticky-notes piece sounds like a good place to start - hook me up and I will see how it goes!

Hi Guys,
Haven't heard anything on the below: should I shelve it and move onto an open ticket?* Máirín I'd be interested in discussing anything UI related :-) Cheers, Nicole On Thu, Apr 12, 2012 at 7:18 PM, Nicole Harris <harris.nicolelouise@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Máirín, Thanks for the warm welcome.
