ust as it seemed that we're a bit underrated in terms of promotion and that this first tournament will probably not be as big in size as we'd hope for, a nice turnaround happened.
The Tux Project and REVELinux are declaring their support for the gamefest, including a couple of graphic artists Landy DeField (land0, author of the New Blue Amarok iconset) and Janet Theobroma (author of the KDE 3.5 default wallpaper).
The idea is to open a web shop for the gamefest selling T-Shirts with its artwork and logos of the games that will be included. All of the proceeds from this webshop would go to the gamefest and a free T-Shirt may be an award for its winners. This webshop would go through an already established REVELinux Gear webshop, but would be on a separate domain.
In a discussion in which he revealed this to me Landy also suggested we create a “brochure” site for the gamefest under a separate domain name which would link back to Nuxified.org. We have also firmly established what is now an official name of the gamefest: Freedomware Gamefest 2007, simple, understandable and catchy.
