Cheers, Stephen

Propose a better icon for "Distribution", then ? We developed the theming some weeks ago with a long review. So make a new proposal fitting in the theme!

I'm definitely not an artist, but I'll see what I can do. I think a vista shaped box is stupid with all the microsoft fud that openSUSE has to deal with. Stephen 2009/4/21 Jan-Simon Möller :

Greetings, The icon is quite small, I really haven't seen it. Which are the items that belong to that theme? One have to check if the colors and shapes fit for the possible new proposal. I think the last proposal looks fine, hope its not specific for autoyast (?). -- Carlos A. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

color before $MSWIN. 2.) As Jan-Simon said, we had an big Voting about our Layout. The Voting now is over. We can't every time if anyone unlike a thing in our Newsletter, start an new Voting. That makes the Voting ad absurdum.
