What's New in the Toolkit?

New ANR Marketing Brochures
Posted 4/26/2012 - In partnership with the communications team at UCOP, we've been developing marketing collateral pieces that help us tell the story of UC ANR and the work we're doing across California. You can take a look by downloading PDF's of either brochure from the Toolkit. Cultivating California is professionally printed on heavy stock.

Use of the UC Seal
Posted 4/18/2012 - I get a lot of requests for the UC Seal and advice on how to use it. The new system-wide identity toolkit is now available complete with downloads of the new UC mark, templates, and guidelines. A link to the system-wide site is in the ANR Toolkit.

Healthy Themes Banners
Posted 4/13/2012 - New zip files containing images for the "4 Healthy" themes have just been added to the Toolkit as we ramp up toward Toolkit 2.0 New in these files are added sizes, colors (including white for use on dark backgrounds), and Spanish versions of the Healthy banners. And we're still looking for brave beta testers for the new mail merge enabled letterhead. Willing subjects should e-mail Cynthia Kintigh.

Beta Testers Needed for Mail Merge Letterhead
Posted 3/27/2012 - We've been working with Shane Feirer (and a big hat's off to Shane!) on creating a version of the letterhead that supports mail merge – it has a bit of VBA programming embedded to outsmart Microsoft Word.Thus far the documents only work on a PC – the Mac OS does something to the Macro. If you have time to beta test and you're working on a PC with a recent version of MS Word – we'd be most appreciative. Shoot me an e-mail and I'll get you the files and the instructions.

Hexidecimal color codes added
Posted 1/18/2012 - Hexidecimal color codes for the full color palette are now available on the Fonts and colors page. So now all of you HTML code warriors have access to the correct color codes!
