And of course, we need a mascot. A flat logo wouldn't go that far. It's good for application, and presentations only. IMHO. It should become the talk of the town. Should start a rivalry. (which already exists) But when it becomes more public --> more eyeballs --> more devs/users. A wallpaper/ logo/mascot just to take souls, and make others better + make us feel good as well.
Showing off good things == Good deed++. Otherwise I have more exciting anime/nature wallpapers to put on. Being honest, Showing it off, and Declaring what is better is the only reason I asked for wallpapers + contents etc. (wasn't wrong thinking like this I hope). (this is how you convert people nowadays. You influence their decisions/opinions about things, or they get influenced themselves, just by a little display of power.) I mean you can talk to devs as if they are your neighbours, you attend meetings where you get to vote on what should be implemented, and what's a bad idea, they handhold you whenever you feel lost etc... And you implement features for yourself, and for others. Isn't that cool? (this should be in the wallpapers/sketches, in terms of satire/declaration/invitation...) i started learning gimp myself!
