Re: Debian artwork for Wheezy
Hello Valessio,
I'm grateful for your excellent Debian artwork, thanks! Here's a first draft of a "call for proposals" for artwork for Debian's Wheezy release;
---
An important part of any operating system is its look and feel. Debian is no exception. If you've ever wanted to influence the look and feel of an operating system now is your chance. The Debian Project is calling for contributors to design graphics for the next release of the Universal Operating System called Wheezy. If you would like to get involved, visit this wiki page to get started: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/Artwork/Wheezy
You'll see what the requirements for submitting artwork are, as well as a form to submit your own work to Debian. You can send questions to the "debian-desktop@lists.debian.org" mailing list if you have them.
Thanks very much and everyone looks forward to seeing your work!

Regards,
Jeremiah
