He also proposed a possible approach: Byzantine mosaics "When I think about it, I had in my mind Byzantine culture (Roman emperor Constantine the Great) and I think a graphic in the style of a Byzantine mosaic can be an effective approach. The major trick is to leave out any religious implications and stay only with cultural references."

Design

In this section, we cover the Fedora Design Team[1].

Contributing Writer: Nicu Buculei

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."
