team leaders would moderate the issue and if no agreement can be reached
the Edgy Artist-in-Chief.

Mich posted this interesting thought. I think it is worth discussing
to see where everyone thinks Dapper is shy.

It seems Dapper still comes with the ugly Human icons by default instead

I am running Human here for Dapper and they are beautiful.
I hope it stays the way it is.

The wiki is horribly out of date for active members.
What I need?
Send me your name and an active contact email address
so everyone can contact you. Also send me your areas

The problems I see with this whole thing is this:
A pic, when rendered from vector with a decent editor, anti-aliases
differently at different sizes. Every time the thing is scaled you
loose quality (unless you are just really, really lucky). So, making
bigger pics is easy

This might seem out of place, but I really would appreciate some
direction on where the current leadership is going with the art.
One centralized Wiki page for Dapper would be wonderful. It might
already exist, but it certainly isn't the easiest thing to find.
What I am hoping for is
FYI, if you don't already know this, start with a 640x480 image and
scale it down to 640x400. That should get you the correct aspect
ratio.

1) Create a basic 640x480 pic with the correct branding, etc. as vector.
