Hi Bernhard, all! I'd like to keep it short, since it's already "tomorrow" for me ;-)

Well, although some details differ - I started with one of the larger (externally used) web banners to at least have something in place for the next days. I re-used some of our already available material. For the background, I've tried to closely follow the recent MIME icon enhancements initiated by Paulo. And most people I've heard agreed with the color "blue" ... Graphic plus source file: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/FoundationChallenge#Web_Banner Maybe somebody (Nik, Paulo, Mike ...) can jump in and refine it a bit, and resize it (see shorter texts above)?
