Hi Maren, In addition to a new Icons category for the gallery, mentioned in IF, maybe should think about filters, templates, symbols, patterns, markers, etc.? I wouldn't be surprised if you already had this thought.

- You're totally right, Brynn ;) - thought I'd ask Martin about this.

@Martin: Would you agree to create a few new resource categories for the website, which correspond to the different user-created assets that can be used with Inkscape, as named above by Brynn?

Regards, Maren

All best, brynn

Thank you, Martin.

I've created new categories for those with an X in front of them now:

- attributes (not really sure what it's for, something about conversion to css...) - examples (-> Artwork) X filters - gradients (do people share their gradients?) X keys X palettes - screens (-> Artwork) X templates - ui (making changes here doesn't work for me, files appear to be used at compile time :/) - branding (exists) - extensions (exists) - fonts (not sure what it's for - empty folder, and fonts are saved somewhere else) X icons X markers X patterns X symbols - tutorials (exists)

(btw. can anyone explain why this is so inconsistent: For markers, it appears as if files saved in my personal config directory were ignored, and changes can only be applied system-wide (or maybe I was doing it the wrong way?), while for templates, palettes and icons, user-specific files are possible. Other directories are empty, and making changes in others doesn't have any effect.)

What about the acceptable licences for all of these? I've set them to GPL2 + 3, LPGL2+3, AGPL3 right now, as it is for the extensions.

Could we also accept CC-By-SA and PD / CC0 for the new categories?

Regards, Maren

This makes a lot of sense. I think we can state as policy that a directory in inkscape's share folder/config folder would be a candidate for it's own inkscape.org category.

Martin,

There are bug reports tracking the lack of support for user-specific patterns and markers … patches are welcome, as always (I doubt there's any other reason than lack of contributed code to explain this kind of "inconsistency").

For example:

• Save change to markers.svg user accessible

https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/171373

• Ability to make new persistent patterns/pattern libraries

https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/183535

Thanks, V - so there's no 'deeper meaning' behind it, then. I can't help by contributing any code, unfortunately :/

Regards, Maren
