I agree with this idea as well. The art-web content management system is not as advanced, user friendly and powerful as the content management system used by the gnome-look, kde-look, kde-apps, and so on. I've thought about something similar actually before the announcement of art.ubuntu.com - "ubuntu-look.org". I think we could use art.ubuntu.com along with the gnome/kde-look.org CMS (content management system), to not only develop and share art, but also to easily announce competitions as well as draw impressive, high rated art to be added into official releases of Ubuntu. I really respect the work of all you guys so far whom have been involved with the art.ubuntu.com process, especially by that of Henrik Nilsen Omma, however I think we, as the Ubuntu art community should decide what CMS we should use, no? I just began helping out at art.ubuntu.com with the art-web CMS to accept submitted artwork, and so far it is a cumbersome process to accept any new submissions, even simple things such as wallpapers. Of course room is open for improvement of the art-web CMS, but should this be currently our primary concern as the art community, or is there a possibility of using a more advanced CMS, such as the one gnome-look.org currently uses? What does the rest of the community think on this matter? Should we possibly change the CMS for ease of use? What do the rest of you think? Kind regards, Pascal Klein -- Cheerio.
