Given our current policy of using wallpaper as the base for other art 
(Bootsplash, application splashes, etc) you're asking for a great deal of work 
from anyone who's going to take up this task.


Wouldn't it make more sense to use the 12.2 wallpaper?



The current state of the 12.2 wallpaper can be found in the openSUSE art 
gitorious repo 
it isn't finished, if you want a completed design, what's wrong with the 12.1 
wallpaper - which is probably the version you're currently basing your spin on 
anyhow.


None of our projects other 'spins' - openSUSE Education, Tumbleweed, etc, have 
their own art direction, and I would be nervous about committing my time and 
effort to a side project that is yet to demonstrate user uptake.


Having it's own logo makes sense and is much less work - that's the norm for 
our side spins, banning text however disqualifies the possibility of basing 
your logo on any other logo we currently have in use..
Why is text out of the question?
