 Sorry for the delay with this ticket and all the mistakes, just please
understand I'm new and by now I'm a little bit bussy because I'm working in
a project but Here you are:

Ok, Now I think it's finally Done, I "remake" all the job using only GIMP
and I'm providing here the original ".xcf" Sources:

Banner1FED: http://goo.gl/qlGk

Banner2FED: http://goo.gl/btDb

I based all my work in the original ".svg" files, (I can't attach my files
to the ticket because they're too big for the system).

Ticket URL: https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/60

P.S. Can someone tell me how to erase the old wong attachements of the
ticket? Thanks!

Please tell me what else can I do for Fedora :)

Ideally you would do all work in vector graphics, so it can be printed 
at any size and exported a any resolution without quality loss.

For this you can base your work on the original SVG files provided by 
Mairin here: 
http://fedorapeople.org/groups/designteam/Fedora%20Collateral/Posters/Four%20Foundations%20Cloverleaf%20Banners%20-%20Set%20of%202/SVG/

It would not be of use even if you embed the complete PNG into the SVG 
(anyone can to that having the PNG), is important to have the image 
scalable and editable.

Thanks for the files Manuel, but these aren't full sources.  If you
did work in Inkscape to produce the PNG, you would supply those
original SVG files.  If you did the work in Gimp, you would supply the
original XCF files, along with information on any of the photographic
sources or brushes you used.

These files appear to be a link embedded in an SVG file, so
unfortunately they're not useful to artists who want to collaborate
with you.

Can you remove these SVG attachments in the ticket, and provide the
true original material?  Thanks!

There are some general mailing list guidelines you can find on our

For instance:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines#No_attachments

Hope that's helpful.

For a ticket to be solved you *must* provide also the sources in an open 
format, in this case SVG would be the best. Without the source code is 
impossible for the rest of the team to work on your images and 
modify/improve them if needed.

Please, *never ever* attach such huge files to a mailing list, not 
everybody is on a fast connection and not everybody wants to fill his 
Inbox with 6MB of content he may never use.

I am not sure what the exact limits are but if they are too low we may 
need to ask for them to be increased.

However, how the image was created, with which app? It was exported 
directly from Inkscape? I opened one of the PNG files in GIMP, it was 
364KB and just saved it again, without doing anything else, the file 
size decreased to 197KB.

Since it is your first task, I hope you won't mind some general advices.

First, the ticket was really old (imported last year from the wiki) so I 
don't know if it is actual or not (we really need some cleaning in the 
ticket queue), the initial requester does not seem subscribed there. I 
see they are using something 
(http://revisor.fedoraunity.org/screenshots/select-media.png/view), not 
sure if they are happy with that or want a change.

Then, when you propose a solution to a ticket, *do not close it as
