=== With or without introduction ===
=== Continual theme development ===


On the Fedora Art list Pavel Shevchuk raises an interesting question [1] about the need of a formal introduction for new members "I'm pretty sure people who really want to contribute can do it without loudmouth letters, bringing some artwork instead", Frank Murphy raises the issue of mentoring [2], where people new to FOSS may need some guidance and Nicu Buculei talks [3] about inter-human relations inside the team "spend some time together, know each other and maybe we will work better as a team" and mention about how many of the membership requests in the account system, started from the '''Join Fedora''' page [4] are not followed on the mailing list nor with real work.
Theme development for Fedora 10 [1] was the main point of focus on the Fedora Art List this week, two new themes were proposed by [[SamueleStorari]]: InvinXble [2], a theme about "the difficulties founded on the road, but the project doesn't quit, and, if sometime it may be falled it raised up strongest than before. Fedora had to fight to reach this point, so we can say Fedora it's Invincible, or better invinXble" and Solar [3],a theme about "the 'Perfect System' meaning a good, right working OS".


InvinXble received significant appreciation, with feedback about how it can become more suitable as an usable background image and the recommendation to '''not''' use the Fedora logo, which is the team policy about providing graphics which can be easily reusable.

=== Reviving the Fedora Art spin ===
[3] - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/F10Themes/Solar


The Art Studio spin, a customized version of Fedora geared toward creative use (graphic, sound and video editing) is an old project of the Art Team. Following a thread on the Fedora Marketing list [2], a few people expressed their [3], [4], [5] so there is a change this project will see the light is a foreseeable future.

Continual theme development

Theme development for Fedora 10 [1] was the main point of focus on the Fedora Art List this week, two new themes were proposed by SamueleStorari: InvinXble [2], a theme about "the difficulties founded on the road, but the project doesn't quit, and, if sometime it may be falled it raised up strongest than before. Fedora had to fight to reach this point, so we can say Fedora it's Invincible, or better invinXble" and Solar [3],a theme about "the 'Perfect System' meaning a good, right working OS".

InvinXble received significant appreciation, with feedback about how it can become more suitable as an usable background image and the recommendation to not use the Fedora logo, which is the team policy about providing graphics which can be easily reusable.

In theming related news, PaulFrields asks on the list [4] about the impact about the team's schedule of the delay until the release name for Fedora 10 will be chosen (with a public vote, as usual) and he is assured by NicuBuculei about the team being cool with the delay, as the process is still in the first round [1].
