Hi,
well the last week we covered a lot of the 'most important' features with icons.
osm.wiki/Project_of_the_week/2010/Jul_25
I'm glad that a few people joined this 'competition':
-Rw
-Nadhp
-JasonWoof
-Peter Maiwald
-gulp21
It might had become more people if didn't done that much work on own at the very beginning ;)
Unforunatly I found the source of the mapnik icons only 3 days after se start, so for a few symbols we invented the wheel twice. But hey this allows us to discuss different approaches and to pick the best one :)
Now I'm talking to the admins to add a few more icons, feel free to join the discussion (with your osm account)
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=8497
In the next days I'd like to merge/update all the icon related wikipages to make it more easy for (external) artists to contribute:
osm.wiki/Map_Icons
osm.wiki/Proposed_Icons
osm.wiki/WikiProject_Pictograms
osm.wiki/DE:Artwork-Team
For me it was a realy nice experience to manage this small project that I created from one day to to the other.
Especially getting in touch with other communities like Gimp, Inkscape,... was intetresting and quite nice and OpenClipArt.org tries to establish a deeper affiliation :)
Once more, thank you folks!
