I like both ideas. Snappy, funny phrases are not necessarily my strength, but here are some to get people going: (Borrowing from the release notes ...) * GNOME 2.28 - supported by Friends of GNOME * GNOME has more friends than ever - join with GNOME 2.28 * Become unwired - Bluetooth in GNOME 2.28 * Out of time and don't know why? Try Time Tracker in GNOME 2.28 * Cheese! Manage your pictures while traveling. Use Cheese on your netbook with GNOME 2.28. * Need to annotate PDFs? Try Evince on GNOME 2.28!
And my art work would definitely be painful, so I let someone else start that! (I'll start working on my blog post that needs a banner!)
