(This email is a logical continuation of a discussion we have recently regarding nice artwork we find on the web) Hi people, In an ongoing effort to make our artwork team more organized I have taken a liberty and came up with a "How to contact an artist" procedure. You can find it on the wiki right here: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Wallpaper_graphics_(proposals) To save you time here is the text: 1) Once you have found artwork you really like somewhere on-line you have to first add it to this list. 2) Unless the artwork is licensed as Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License, or Public domain - the arwork author/owner must be contacted 3) As soon as you have decided to actually get in touch with the author/owner you must first let openSUSE artwork know you are doing so, by sending an introduction email to art mailing list (http://lists.opensuse.org/). The email has to include a link to the artwork, the artwork author/owner's name, and a sample text of the email you are about to send to him/her/them. (Done in a effort to make the web search more organized and coordinated) 4) Mailing list participants will respond with their suggestions/corrections to your email. 5) Send the text of the email mailing list has agreed upon to the artwork author/owner and CC the art mailing list. 6) Wait for a reply. 7) Once/If a positive reply has been received update this page with license/author information, and author/owner's comments (if any). 8) Once/If a negative replay has been received update this page - remove ALL unnecessary information about the artist, leave only artist's name, website address and a brief message indicating that the artist/owner replied negatively. 9) (In any case) Send a reply to the owner/artist and thank him/her/them for their time. If you have any comments/changes you would like to propose please reply. Thanks.
