A recurring complaint about fossil is that, it lacks aesthetic  
appeal.  This is perhaps reflective of the unusual tastes of the lead  
programmer, who prefers minimalist and utilitarian "shaker"-style  
designs over the art-deco/eye-candy/bubble-gum appearance that is so  
popular on the web these days.  Nevertheless, we are *very* open to  
improving the look of the fossil program itself and the fossil website  
and eager to accept contributions in this area.

If you have any graphic or artistic talent and can contribute, please  
do so.  Working code is appreciated, but not required.  If you can  
submit a mock-up screenshot of a new look with a few paragraphs of  
description, someone else can be persuaded to do the actual  
implementation.

Here are some specific contributions what will be appreciated:

(1)  A "logo" image for the fossil project
(2)  Better CSS for the pages generated by fossil
(3)  Ideas on how to better structure the display of information in  
fossil
(4)  A redesign of the main fossil website

Thanks you for considering this request.
