Earlier, I was browsing through the pages for the Fedora 10 theme proposals. Excellent work so far, guys! except... Nearly every theme proposal doesn't have source SVGs or XCFs or whatever for their theme. Let me reiterate that. +---------------------------------------+ | | | THERE ARE BARELY ANY SOURCES! | | | +---------------------------------------+ I'm not taking this lightly, as you may be able to tell... One of the major things about openly licensed artwork is that sources are necessary so that people can wrangle your art into something else, just like the availability of source code in a program allows for modification and redistribution. Most of us understand that... I think. In addition to sources, any instructions on producing something like what you produced is also necessary. Like code without documentation, it's extremely annoying to see this awesome work of art without any knowledge of how it was done. In addition, I highly doubt that a theme will make the final cut if there aren't any sources for people to grok. ;) Listed below are the proposals and proposers (FAS account names) who have not provided sources for their work: +--------------------+--------------------------+ | Proposal | Proposers | +--------------------+--------------------------+ | bluefire | mola | | Neon | duffy, tw2113, ianweller | | WingAnatomy | qaranthir | | Eden | jonrob | | InvinXble | sstorari | | Solar | sstorari | | liberaProgramaro | klaatu | | simmetricalfreedom | razgrizbr | +--------------------+--------------------------+ Yes, I realize one of the problem proposals has my name on it. I'm on it, don't worry ;) We prefer SVG the most, followed by XCF (GIMP). Any other sources for different open source programs are also acceptable; let us know what programs those are.
