Although these are photographic, they meet the design guidelines of artwork for the distro. They can be re-licensed if needed or resized easier with a script that it-s is making.
Resizing works well with SVGs. On Photos you always have to cut off something.
As mentioned before, photos could go into a supplementary package.

As the 12.3 release date gets closer, we should focus on preparing the artwork, now.
From what I can see, we got proposals from Victor:

and the one Ivan, Richard and I was working on:
http://marcusmoeller.ch/share/oS/12_3/grow_05.png
The latter has been prepared to work well with the produkt-based Plasma theme that is in testing in K:D:F and Factory right now.
There are already a lot of submissions on the flickr page, but from what I can see, at least the non-photographic designs, does not fullfil our logo guidelines. The photos could of course be bundled to a supplementary wallpaper package. (who will do the work?)
I would like to suggest to push the above two proposals to factory and continue working on it. We would also gain more feedback this way.
Is that okay for you?

Then, that means that you have chosen yourself to make yourself the person who can put up wallpaper on the distribution. I think, that the better approach is to ask the community to provide pictures that match the criteria that you are setting for submitting images. As they make their submissions, the rest of the community can vote on which one is the better one.
The reason I propose this is because your idea seems very nondemocratic.
What do you think?
Everyone can contribute artwork and is invented to do so. Coordination can be done on this list. Work is done on Github and Factory (as always). The artwork team itself should agree on which design should be used for the core distribution art. Supplementary artwork (like photos) can of course be submitted through something like a contest, but this has to be worked out together, not only by you. This process is established and used by other distributions like Fedora and Ubuntu (but they are doing the core art at Canonical).
