Also Jakub, what would you like to do with the Pixel Pool? We had some good ideas for 11.1, do you still want to use it to solicit designs for the wallpaper, bootsplash, etc. or would you like to do something else for those?
Hi Kevin, Wiki is a better than nothing, so I'd stick with it. It's good to have an overall look of the distro and not focus only on one part. The biggest downside having this on the wiki is that we perhaps haven't had a discussion around those designs going. Maybe we should urge people to pitch their idea/design here on the list so it doesn't feel like posting to /dev/null. It does take away time to deal with the usual 90% poor quality submissions, but it's worth it in the long run. For example the glass and vectors mockups did steer the SLED installer theme towards light widgets as there have been some problems with using large dark backgrounds for screenshots in the documentation. A number of theming bugs related to the inverted widgets keep coming back, we probably ant to go with a lighter theme for openSUSE installer as well. Maybe the mailing list discussion will even be better than having inline comments as those attract those one liners in the likes of "I like!" "Perhaps you'd like to see a picture of my cat!
