This page contains links to materials that can be used for promoting the KDE community and its products.

We try to collect as much material as possible here, but it can always happen that something is not catalogued here.

If you notice that some material is missing, please add it to the appropriate wiki page. When adding new material, always try to include a link to the editable source file in an open format. If possible, include licensing information for the material.

Note that some of these subpages contain old and outdated materials. We preserve them for historical purposes, but you can also use them as inspiration to create new materials.
