Hi, I'm working on the REST Layer About page in the geosearch module. Since it is going to be a fairly public facing thing, I've been working with OpenGeo's design team to get some input as to how to make it look attractive and consistent with the rest of GeoServer branding. This requires a couple things:
(1) Some images for the page, like a "Powered by GeoServer" image and some icons for different file formats. I'm bringing this to community list because I don't have core commit rights, but after talking with Justin about it it sounds like the easiest and perhaps only way to serve these images with GeoServer is to put them in the main /images directory of GeoServer. So I'd like to ask for permission to commit these images. (2) Changing the default OpenLayer navigation icons. It is the consensus of every designer and every person who I've talked to who has had to look at or use OpenLayers that the default icons used for navigation, panning, etc. are a woeful eyesore. Again, for the sake of coherent branding of the REST page, I would love to use a new set of icons--icons the design team is thrilled to provide for us--that are prettier and perhaps greener. The easiest way to make this happen is to swap the new images into the images directory used by the OpenLayers code that is widely used throughout the webapp. If done this way, it should make the entire GeoServer map previewing experience more pleasant. But since this would be a change that goes beyond the scope of the community module I'm working in, want to ask the community for permission first.
