By all means. Please coordinate you're efforts and attract new artwork
talent by forming a Team. This is a resource we could greatly use. We
frequently need artwork for all kinds of purposes, not only the
distribution, and up until now this rests on the shoulders of a few
people (namely you, robert, jimmac and garrett). We also have a lot of
teams/areas in the project that, uhm how do i say this politely, use
artwork of questionable quality. As someone who has little talent but
somehow is affine to this art I'm always shocked to see that. Most of
the time those graphics are in this quality because people don't know
where to go to get something done by a real artist, so they get out gimp
and do it themselves. A group of people, easily identified, to go to for
all kind of graphic artwork would be a big step forward for the project.
Oh an i think graphic arts is something that greatly lives from artists
influencing each other. So get on with it! :)

BTW: i think Rajko has a point in saying that this should include
somehow suse-art.org. Please think about how to use this resource for
the project.
