It sounds like this contest won't make it for this release. That is
fine. I think we can keep it up and give it more fire when 12.3 comes
out. I am sure that we can do something stronger and better for that
release.

Splash Screens Contest
Hello artists and enthusiasts. We have been hard at working with our artwork for 12.2 and now it is the time to style the distribution a little more. Since the most of artwork that we have now is a derivative of the official wallpaper created by Richard Brown and Marcus Moeller there is a big portion of our styling done for the distribution. However, there are a few other elements that need your creative collaboration. Splash screens for a few programs that we use can be greatly enhanced by your artistic inspiration.
Libre Office GIMP Scribus Amarok Calligra Krita Blender
The idea of this contest is that we can integrate the new chosen wallpaper into these splash screens for the release of 12.2.
Guidelines 1. Use the default wallpaper as part of the image. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1363018/test3.jpg 2. Refer to the official artwork guidelines in how to use logos for these different applications. 3. Restrict your creation to the sizes specified. 4. Provide the sources of your work if chosen. 5. Present/submit your artwork to http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Splashscreen
Sizes (please use a standard resolution of 75 dpi) LibreOffice 440x480 http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design GIMP 320x480 http://www.gimp.org/ Scribus 391x295 http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Promotion_material Amarok 550x412 http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/File:Amarok_logo.svg Calligra 440x286 http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Logos Krita 440x286 http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archivo:Krita_Application_Logo.svg Blender 501x282 https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender/release/datafiles/s...

Submission Dealine Thursday, 26 April 2012: openSUSE 12.2 Milestone 4
For more information about the current release roadmap, please visit: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap
I just rediscover this thread.
No real submission were made, and I send the artwork for 12.2 Sunday, Coolo pick it, and the sr is now pending.
So basically, we will have same splashscreens as in 12.1 with the new background.
If changes are needed, here how to make it easier to handle, especially as factory will be entering in its freezing feature period.
Find the splashscreen which contain a trouble. The same file exist in -art gitorious repository, clone it, make a fix in 12.2 submit a merge request against -art so -art maintainers can review it and merge it back. containing the bnc number you open for the occasion
identify the file and the package open a bug in bugzilla againt openSUSE-branding developed at Base:System then identify the splash screen and say that a merge request against -art will exist for that bug.
Put me on cc bruno at ioda-net (dot) ch
This help and accelerate a lot, and will be the only way to get updates in factory soon.
