All, Thousands of OpenOffice.org community members participated in the voting for the OpenOffice.org 2.0 splashscreen. People could vote for their favourite three choices from the eleven splashscreens shortlisted form over 340 submissions from 103 artists and designers.
We are pleased to announce that Brendan Wheelan was the outright winner with his splashscreen design: http://www.openoffice.org/editorial/bwhelan.html Brendan, a professional programmer, has since worked with the development team to finalise the artwork to be included in OpenOffice.org 2.0 Beta, including the splashscreen, about box and installer graphics. The splashscreen competition not only provided a successful splashscreen, but created awareness of the OpenOffice.org Art Project (http://marketing.openoffice.org/art/) that is responsible for the creation and maintenance of graphics and art pieces for the OpenOffice.org community. Thank you to all the artists who participated in the splashscreen competition. We look forward to any other ways you may wish to contribute to the OpenOffice.org Art Project. Congratulations Brendan, and a big thank you also to all the community members who participated in voting for the splashscreen.
