And here's another iteration:
http://oooauthors.org/art/artproject/new20_template-dc7.sxw/file_view
I took the design from dc6 but replaced the gulls by Linda's new logo.
Thoughts?

i don't have looked at all versions, only at the last two.
i don't really like the last one (dc7) because the round text is 
harder to read. IMO, dc6 is better, and i think is good enough to be 
used.

also i don't like one thing (consider it nitpicking if you want): the 
"OpenOffice.org" text is probably in PNG format and looks blurred on 
the screen (probably also on print). but i don't know other better way 
to do it in OOo:
- you can use PNG but the result will not scale well and be blurred;
- you can use text, but the font should be Fruitier or Toga, which 
will not be available on every computer;
- you can convert text to curves but this will lack antialiasing;

The text is blurred because I only submitted the graphics at 72ppi not 
300ppi to keep the size down for testing.  So at that ratio the more you 
resize the worse it is going to get.  I failed to add this bit of 
information to my original submission, sorry.
