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

A Gallery in the Works
Máirín Duffy informed[1] on @design-team about a test instance of a gallery software, something being a wishlist item for a long time, and asked about ways to use it "How do you think we should proceed with it?". Martin Sourada suggested[2] using it for a while "perhaps make it accessible to design team members and start filling it with extra wallpapers and see how it works? And hold a session after some time (perhaps a month) to discuss whether the test instance works as we'd like or not" and [[User:luya|Luya Tshimbalanga] proposed[3] some categories "Could it be used to display past Fedora release wallpapers, contributors wallpaper like Martin mentioned similar to what Fedora Forum used to have until vBulletin upgrade, sketches."
New Wallpapers Coming
María Leandro asked for feedback[1] on @design-team about a few wallpaper concepts, which were received positively, as for example by Máirín Duffy[2] "I think these works are a very good start start; I think the shading and coloring on mosaico2 is very suitable for a background. It's not too high-contrast, or stark, or distracting which is good for a wallpaper" along with a number of improvement ideas from various members of the team, on which Maria based a second iteration[3], also received positively[4] "This one is great. The lighting is perfect."
María also showed[5] a number of wallpaper proposals she did for the Education SIG[6], which, as Máirín Duffy observed[7], didn't comply with the logo usage guidelines[8] "I have a concern here with the logo - we're not supposed to change the Fedora logo like that, it's really really against the guidelines". On a tangent, a sub-logo for the education SIG was created[9] by Máirín.

Continual Brainstorming for Constantine
Máirín Duffy reviewed a stalled conversation about creating a theme linked to the Fedora 12 codename, a good opportunity for Paul Frields[1] and Nicu Buculei [2] to chime-in with their (to long for this report) replies on the issue.
On the same 'Constantine' concept Samuele Storari explored[3] a column "maybe we can work on the Roman Art Style and not only havin focus on the mosaic, there're the basrelief or the Monumental sketch or the Bas-relief decoreting the Constantine Column" and Angella Inzinga with a coin[4] "I've been toying with a coin-imagery based idea of the campgate. [...] I'm hoping to have something up to post soon."
