In some ways, using the stripes background as the main Fedora 15 theme is attractive to me if the design team wanted to go that route. It gives good consistency and maximum impact. But it also seems a bit weird. If we're making Fedora 15 all stripey to celebrate GNOME 3 being in Fedora 15, isn't it weird if you download the XFCE or KDE spins and don't get GNOME 3 and still see all the stripes? I'm also expecting it would make it much harder for me to make my case for other distributions to also use the GNOME background as the default background. - Owen _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
