Hello Diana, Welcome to the Fedora art team. I followed this link from your blog to your submission. http://people.redhat.com/dfong/fc7graphics/ As always your work is very nice. I have a couple of requests. 1. Would you move your work to a wiki page using a format similar to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fc7ThemeProposalFlyingHighRc1 ? This page needs to be a public facing and describes your concept and lays out mock ups or screen shots of your submission. I see this page being reviewed by forum members and linked to the "release notes" wiki page referenced by distrowatch. 2. Would you create a second wiki page similar to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fc7ThemeProposalFlyingHigh which is intended to be inward facing? This page would hold down-load-able artwork that can be tested by members. If you have install scripts that would be nice. My first question is one of theme design. In my mind I view a theme as a story board. The images are linked, but they are different. Your approach seems to be one of image re-use. I noticed the wallpaper image is the same as the gdm login background. The balloon behind the clouds image is used in many of the screens. In FC6 I saw the same scenario and I assumed it was because of the time constraint. I noticed the RHGB image does not confirm to the design guide. I like the image but I assume the RHGB maintainer is in agreement to the change. Until I can test the GRUB images I always worry about quality. IMO the FC6 grub image does not display well (very grainy) and my submission was an attempt to minimize this. There is also the issue of black screen, blue screen, black screen, blue screen. IMO the current boot process looks choppy as a result. The first boot screen looks very similar to the FC6 screen. I was hoping for something different as I believe this screen dates back a few versions. In addition, how do you feel about adding "echo" icons to your submission? I noted there is no optional artwork. I assume the decision has been made to exclude the splash screen of gimp, open office, gdm, kde, and the screen save unlock.
