Pierros, the new maintainer of the hackergotchi requests page proposed a size increase to 120x120 px (I used to make them at 96x96), so probably that's the constraint: maximum width of 120 px. What I don't like in your example is the badge covering people faces/mouths, is like they are silenced or terrorists trying to hide. We are space-constrained only on the horizontal, you shouldn't have a problem using more vertical space. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
