Artwork
If you are artistic, you can share your talent by helping us to improve the style and feel of the OSCELOT website by contributing artwork, or helping to design the CSS behind the site. You may also contact project leads offering assistance in designing graphics for their projects.
Document Solutions
If you find a solution to a problem you can help others by writing about your experience. Some of the most constructive ways to get involved in the OSCELOT documentation community might be:
-
Take notes as you puzzle through a problem. If documentation already exists, you can extend or improve it. If it doesn't contact the project lead or info@oscelot.org and ask if you can contribute.
-
Read through the HOWTOs and other documentation for a project, read them over and check them for accuracy, and offer suggestions to the project lead.
-
If you are interested in working on general documentation projects, you can join the OSCELOT Documentation Team. You can get information on getting started with the Documentation Team by contacting info@oscelot.org
