Whenever we try anything that is !blue, we get a whole lot of negative

they should I think.

I don't like opensuse in particular but they have made a break from
blue in latest release - now its green, and it looks great! I would
love to see Fedora !blue for at least one release - it would be
refreshing.
Everyone has their own personal tastes and opinions on the artwork.
Unfortunately, only a very small percentage of those folks actually
contribute to the artwork. If you would like to truly influence the
artwork though, you will need to take a more active, participatory
role on the art team.
It have the ability to bring some really talented people to fedora and
they will contribute, but they use proprietary tools (photoshop and the
like). Is that forbidden to use non OSS apps in making fedora themes? I
heard that before in some post but I wasn't sure so please clarify.
I think Nicu or someone else has already answered this by now, but - We
would prefer artwork to be created using the free and open source tools
which are in many cases installable on most operating systems besides
Fedora. There is no hard rule saying they must, though, although we have
faced great criticism from within and from outside of the Fedora
community for older Fedora versions featuring artwork that was not
created using FOSS tools. My preference would be for the artwork to be
created in FOSS tools since the learning curve is not that high and the
tools are free and embody all the principles that Fedora is about. There
is really no excuse.
That doesn't really have much to do with what we were talking about, though.
