I think that most of the artists on this list have little or no experience with what launchpad and bazaar has to offer. It's not hard, once someone has explained how once. It is more a matter of a) knowing such things exist and b) having someone take you through it step by step. Maybe someone or a group of someones would be interested in creating some simplified, artwork directed howtos and/or helping people along the way? -- Kenneth -- ubuntu-art mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
