Really? I've seen a lot of really poorly-formatted, obnoxiously-sized images (even to my clearly non-designer eyeballs) on planet.fp.o in the past. Nobody has ever commented on any of those on the board mailing list, nor have those blog posts ever resulted in a mailing-list discussion about filtering -content-. Maybe people jumped on the ubuntu angle rather than the 400x400 bit and should not have. Also, I understand that you are saying some guidelines would be nice. If we want to have guidelines relating to artistic quality and so forth, then, I wish you luck enforcing those posts. If we want to have loose guidelines saying, "be excellent, don't post porn pictures, and try to refrain from cursing in 48-point font," then I think that's acceptable as well. If we want to have guidelines saying "we can only talk about Fedora stuff here," and turning the main planet page into a Fedora-only place, taking away the community element, and relegate all Non-Fedora stuff to a page that nobody visits, I think that is very, very problematic. And that is precisely where this thread has gone. _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
