=== Post-inclusion Feedback for the Beta Artwork ===
=== FUDCon T-shirt ===


After the new wallpaper design was included in Rawhide and presented to the users, the feedback process started.[[User:jspaleta|Jef Spaleta]] forwarded<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00100.html</ref> a concern raised on the OLPC list<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-olpc-list/2009-March/msg00147.html</ref> by Mikus Grinbergs, about the religious implications of using a temple "Seems to me whoever chose the background that was introduced last week did not consider that items with overtones of dissentious subjects such as politics or religion might elicit emotional reactions. I'm concerned that when my system prominently shows a picture with a temple, that might be interpreted as 'Mikus worships paganism'."

In preparation for the upcoming Beta release, [[User:deepsky|Paolo Leoni]] started<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00072.html</ref> the work on a website banner by proposing two graphic concepts, a generic one and another based on the graphics for the Beta wallpaper image "The first is a non-themed version, while the second uses a part of Mo's wallpaper mockup." The general opinion was favourable to the themed version and after a few iterations, [[User:Duffy|Máirí­n Duffy]] concluded<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00088.html</ref> with a final version<ref>http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Deepsky-fedora11-beta-banner_2d.png</ref>, a graphic which all the Fedora enthusiast are invited to use on their blogs. Jef is curious about the team's attitude towards cultural implications "To my reckoning this is the first Fedora artwork that has had culture specific elements in it, so this sort of issue might never have been raised in prior discussions.  I don't know, I mostly lurk. But I'm bringing it to your attention to make sure you see that reaction."

The reaction is supporting them, as outlined by [[User:mso|Martin Sourada]]<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00101.html</ref> "I don't see a valid reasoning there. There is vast difference between you worshiping ancient Greece gods (not that it would be something bad if you actually do) and having a huge Zeus' temple wallpaper hanging on your wall, let alone the wallpaper in your PC", [[User:pfrields|Paul Frields]]<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00103.html</ref> "the conveyance as far as I know is simply to acknowledge the heritage of the 'Leonidas' name.  Any other inference is probably a stretch" and [[User:brianhurren|Brian Hurren]]<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00107.html</ref> "I think that the modern meaning of a Zeus temple is a lot broader now than it was before. Kind of like an old abbey in England would have a different meaning now."

On a related note, [[User:pfrields|Paul Frields]] reviewed<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-March/msg00075.html</ref> the Art's Team release tasks<ref>http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-11/f-11-art-tasks</ref> and produced a short list "the listed splashes, headers and other art scheduled for March 27

FUDCon T-shirt

Emily Dirsh proposed[1] a T-shirt design for the Tempe FUDCon "It's inspired by the art of the Hohokam who once lived in the area" and after an initial warm receive[2] from Máirín Duffy "Wow that is **gorgeous**, I love it! I would love a shirt with that design in it!" she followed[3] with a couple of variations "Ooh, I love the idea of a navy shirt! Yeah, the advantage to a single-color design is it's very easy to adjust the color." Jef van Schendel also proposed[4] a few remixes "Here's a few quick and dirty stabs at a dark shirt version".

Design Team Blog

Máirín Duffy announced[1] a new communication channel for the team "Thanks to Sijis we now have a team blog!! (Yay!!)" and she invited authors to join "Some members of the design team we couldn't add to the blog because their accounts weren't in the Fedora blogs system. If you'd like to be added, please log in to Fedora blogs to create your account, and let me know you've done it so I can request your account be added."
