Interesting image in your noggin Maemish...
I bet everyone here has had similar flashes of how this place looks to them.
Know I have...
(I have sans the court jesters and Arthurian stamp...more like a cross between your library , sitting rooms and add in workshops ...on every level of a skyscraper with every level being one of the subforums and categories....some busier and filled with the bustle of people currently, some quiet with fewer people)
As far as heraldic work, I have about 10 odd years of study on the topic and understand the meanings behind colour, symbol, placement, etc.
Done some work for clients and organisations.
However, here we have had our time, and we are done with such I think.
We have had our maemo linux mascot debate,
icon debate
logo debate
I have quite a few varieties of t-shirts and iron - on patches, etc. ..
I have designed as well...
I wear 'em about now and then..
But there is no ...
or rather was no viable market to break even ....
cost wise ...
it is just a financial loss to produce in mass...
any product aimed for maemo ...
there just isn't the numbers / interest here to make it viable.
Been there, done that....on a few occasions...with a few projects here...
Plenty of folks love the idea..
(I call it "The "Ord" Issue" )
But don't get on board
can't afford
get bored
Not enough numbers...
community ennui ...
Whatever ...
take your pick ..
