I didn’t pursue this as a career though, since I didn’t believe one can make a living doing that. Jimmac: My granddad was an architect and I always looked up to him and tried to draw. How did you start doing graphics? Did your initial experience and or skills help you or did you start from scratch?Įveraldo: Well, I am na illustrator and I have illustrated many children´s and school books, besides some magazines, including one specialized in Linux (if you are an editor and need some illustrations call me -)) I have always enjoyed drawing and surely this was important for my work. It was only available on Unix platforms and I was in search of something to be a good equivalent to Photoshop I saw at the university but couldn’t afford myself at home.
I liked very much the look of gnome, but I thought that KDE was easier to use. Soon after that I knew KDE, I cannot recall precisely if it was still version 1 and a beta of gnome, that was not ready yet. Soon I installed the WindowMaker of Alfredo Kojima, which is a cloned and improved interface of NextStep. In the middle of the way,however, I found Linux, which also looked much more beautiful than Windows.

It did not take me long to find out that it would be impossible to install Mac on my PC. I came back home and started looking for the “OS” on the Internet to install it on my PC.(yes, it seems ridiculous). I fell in love with that and asked the clerk what was it.

In fact to me it was the same as a PC, but the icons of the folders were blue, much more beautiful than the rugged icons of my Windows 95. In the end of 1998, when I purchased my first PC, I went to a computers store and saw a Mac (I cannot recall the model, even because at that time I did not understand anything about this). First of all, how did you meet Linux platform and decided to contribute graphic work to it?Įveraldo: This is a very interesting question. They were very kind to answer our questions related with the art in Linux, its future and much more.ġ.
