I can see efficient performance working as a flavor. I have as I mentioned at uds particularly favoring the the idea of a bird/ flight. Flight tends to imply agility/speed, freedom, seeing things for a not a commonly seen perspective. These are all powerful in the imagery they produce, at least in my mind. You say the next step is abstracting colors and shapes. Shapes I can see how, but how do we know which colors to restrict? How do we judge the value tritone color sheme vs. a monotone one , for example. Sorry if this is super obvious, but I'm still learning. Why only by-sa? doesnt cc-by work as well? is the clause sharealike all that important? or are you saying that by-sa the most restrictive license the artist can put on it, and still have it be acceptable? @Charlie >A point to keep in mind is that Xubuntu normally has used the same scene for the wallpaper and the GDM I cant see that adding any restrictions to what we can and cannot accept. @Charlie Currently the color pallete is pretty limited to tones of 1 color, would the inclusion of other colors be a problem? -- Saleel
