Meetings (Calendar)

Weekly Global team meeting: Thursdays 00:00 UTC

Dev-squad GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/ triage: Biweekly on Thursdays 07:00 UTC

See Meeting Details for more information.

Design has also created thumbnail templates to be used across multiple media assets used in the WordPress project. For the Training Team specifically, these would be used for course/lesson featured images on Learn, videos uploaded to YouTube, and Online Workshop thumbnails added to Meetup.com. The team would start using these thumbnails as part of the redesign work currently happening on Learn.

Please take a moment to generate thumbnails using the provided template and provide your feedback in the comments by April 19th.

Follow the instructions below to download the Figma file to your computer and generate images there.

Create and login to your Figma account at https://www.figma.com/
Download the template file.
Import the file into Figma by going to the Figma homepage and clicking on “Import” in the top-right corner.
Follow the directions described in the file to generate visuals.

Out of the templates provided, Training would be using the following:

Topic as image: Course/lesson featured images
Title only: Lesson video thumbnails on YouTube
Title and guest & Title and multiple guests: Online Workshop thumbnails on Meetup.com

Then, please leave your feedback below. Here are some questions that would be particularly helpful for the design team.

Is the process clear? Suggestions on the copy and the step by step flow are very useful.
Did you export the visuals as expected?
Did you face any problem during the process? Which ones?
Is any helpful information missing?

  Hello @bsanevans When I try to download the template file, I’m getting an “access denied” message. It seems like this file might not be set up for everyone to access.

Thank you all the working that went into these changes. I was afraid to change anything in the editable template. I did not like the addition of the tool bar images or screenshots of the dashboard on the slides. I am not a fan of the (+) on the slides. They take away the focus for some reason. It would be nice on the guests slide to have a place for their names under the profiles. I like the cool background graphics. I can’t wait to start using them.

Hi folks, the feedback period for this proposal is now over.

We’ll be moving forward with these thumbnails, with the addition of some additional colour variants, as well as the option to include names on some of the variations, as suggested.

Thanks, all!

Welcome
