So + +Denis Lelic: Some website issues. were assault and we have a couple of new PRs that are kind of just one second. I just want to share the + +Denis Lelic: just wanted to share the link to the old issues, so some of the issues already have been solved and we have a couple of new PRs that are hopefully gonna enhance the user experience across the website. So anyone who's interested or who might be looking at this recording, I dropped the + +Denis Lelic: Akash network repo, and link to the issues. So, please have a look. The next thing would be events. It's been a busy month for events. A lot of them happening this September. so, + +Denis Lelic: some of the core team members and as well community members were attending Korean Blockchain week in the beginning of this month. And next week, we have token 249 happening in Singapore and the end of the month, there's Masari and Rey Summit happening at the same time. So sick design, kind of supported all of these events with either, merge, giveaways, booth, designs, anything. Basically that's been requested by Events So yeah, using month ahead and as well. Next month, there's going to be + +Denis Lelic: Some events as I think Permissionless and Cosmos are happening. So yeah, a lot of work has been done on that front and while I was talking about the website I just realized I'm missed one thing and hopefully we're going to cover that. In the next month and that's the Swag shop redesign. So I'm thinking we're still gonna use the shopify. We're just going to update the items, maybe change the theme to another one. Make it a bit more visually pleasing. And yeah, we're just trying to elevate all the brand touchpoints. + +Denis Lelic: I'm home. Okay, The next one, we covered website. We covered events.

If you guys want to talk about it, please go ahead. + +Robert Del Rey: Sure, thanks. Denis. Let me start off with YouTube. + +Robert Del Rey: so, Let me share my screen. I speak better visually. Let's say I would recover Dennis if you don't mind. + +Robert Del Rey: So here you can see the YouTube studio for a cast YouTube channel. This is a video I uploaded yesterday just to see how the designs would look in YouTube and in the screen. So, first off is the thumbnail. So you can see, it's very simple talking about the steering company. Call number one in that India, Cash logo. I don't know if I can. Put it bigger. it's a bigger there, so yeah, really simple. But the magic is, when you click On this video to watch it, let me open up on your tab now. This is typical video. We try to put up together an intro card about these. + + +### 00:05:00 + +Robert Del Rey: About these calls or this kind of videos, so this one specifically for You say a steering code, you see a steering comedy. And also says, Community call and the date. Since it's a monthly called, BS and I picture out to be as by the way, is also helping a lot with this.

Thank you for flying then it's one second. No, what happened there? I just share one tablet, specifically instead of the window. This question should work better. Let me know when you're into the YouTube video. + +Robert Del Rey: Okay, infinite mirror with one So as I was saying Yeah the thumbnail is super simple. When you click it, it jumps kind of the same thumbnail. Just with this information is different. It says, Community calls. It's monthly. We just added a month in the year. This one was the first call. Ever. I don know I don't see the description here, but I will go into Latina second. But yeah, when you click on next, we transition today, + +Robert Del Rey: I hope you were able to hear that. So yeah, it's we can simple intro, the five seconds and it jumps right into the call. I actually edited a little bit because the recording has started and then it was just like saying You want to take it off on you. So the yield right into these. I guess this is more related to the YouTube working group called. This Is Not much related to designs. But yeah, I just wanted to show off a little bit, the design for this kind, of course, and that thumbnail. And the other one is about Seeley. Maybe if you have questions About YouTube, we can answer those. And then we can get to see. + +Denis Lelic: True. Thanks Robert for sharing that. Are you planning to do more videos?

The recording. This is a community initiative, and we basically have missions to Motivate People To get involved in the different areas of a cache. There are missions about building on a cache deploying a stock on a cache. Creating Content of Arakash and now we're doing something new. And it's about having the community members design. the cash swag, we want to see their talent. So we came up with this, mission up to 10 winners. We'll wait this + +Robert Del Rey: and yeah, there is a 1580 rewards, so we had a few. You can see here, we have five submissions already for this missions.

So I designed okay. + +Robert Del Rey: Viewquest claims. All right, as you can see, we also are prone to having a spamming submissions. You can spot them. Maybe right away like This is not even on a T-shirt. So yeah. + +Robert Del Rey: we're talking for example in the mission description, we told people that They can design, whatever. As long as it's appealing, right. But they can create T-shirts, stickers, hoodies, and any other form of merchandise. So get creative. So yeah, this is the last submissions we got so far. It's a mall Apparently. They can upload up to five images of their designs. Believe that something good to know. + +Robert Del Rey: Here says they're all around some computer. But I Wrong on coffee, whatever. But you run on coffee, I guess. I don't know if it's a cash we want some coffee or maybe both. Okay, I can see here. I catch No, that's nice. yeah, I it.

Briefly. + +Denis Lelic: I mean. + +Robert Del Rey: Go ahead and + +Denis Lelic: Yeah, yeah. What I would add maybe just like a one sentence that says something about. + +Denis Lelic: AI generated graphics. So I believe some of them would be good, but it's kind of hard to reproduce them. It's either low rest. there's no vectors in there. So to print them on a certain application. I've T-shirt up or anything, so maybe just some one sentence. That's kind of like Mentioning that we can't accept AI. And generated graphics. + +Robert Del Rey: You guided Man, your wish is my command. I just added AI generated content. Submissions will not be accepted. Really. That's your work. + +Denis Lelic: Right. + +Robert Del Rey: I just added to the mission right now + +Denis Lelic: Maybe we can just do a shout out in sick design.
