The wallpapers are ready to be checked in. I'm going to be working with Ray to make this happen this week likely.

It is well-known that we were targeting beta, but are going to end up in the RC again. This is no regression from previous releases since the artwork has appeared in test 3/RC in previous release. We would like to target Beta for F11. The delay was because of the vote which didn't quite line up with a beta artwork release. However, we did have prototype wallpapers available in the beta so we've done better than in previous releases for sure. > > The poster on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/F10Themes/Solar - > it doesn't appear to be valid English, certainly not in the header. > And I'm not sure what "an all branded new way of technology" is.

Yes, and I believe this was made clear when we discussed how the vote should be run on this list, basically: - Artists are better able to evaluate/critique artwork than people without an artistic background. - Artists work hard on the artwork across Fedora all the time (not just the theme but hackergotchis, banners, posters, tshirts, pins, websites, icons, etc. etc. etc) and should have some recognition/reward for that. - The artists are the ones who are going to have to work on finalizing the theme, so it makes sense they should have to work on something they enjoy working on. ~m _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
