This remind me somehow of Linux Personas [1], the site made by Microsoft 
to identify and categorize Linux users (which was discontinued shortly 
after it made the news). Maybe we can learn a bit from MS and define 
some personas and which is the best spin for each persona.


note: I may have the .swf somewhere in a cache...

I like this one, could you change the clothes of the djs so that they
could reflect fedora contributors ?

As well, if cds could be of different colour, djs.png will demonstrate
the different spins of fedora :)

This website hosts a lot of photos from different parties around the
worldwide, perhaps you might find some inspiration.

How do you mean? What clothes do Fedora contributors wear, and why does 
this symbolic picture have to match that?


(most Fedora contributors I have met pretty much wear t-shirts and jeans 
which would make this picture pretty boring)

That's pretty easy to do.

Well I mean the colour of the clothes. In the case of Fedora, blue
would be perfect, along with a small Fedora logo on it :).

While I can perhaps understand the clothes being blue, let's at least
have them be different (appropriate) shades of blue, and leave the logo
out of this one. We want to say that anyone can do it, not just Fedora
engineers.

turntables, with music notes and floating paraphenalia associated with 
the spin, maybe a banner hanging down from each dj table stating what

What do you folks think? Any other ideas for illustrating quickly what a 
Fedora spin is?


I think we reused this analogy already and we should continue to promote 
that.
