Hi Steven, welcome aboard. I'll answer your second questions first if you don't mind. The official colors and logo are available on the Ubuntu Wiki, on the Artwork/Official page, here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official To answer your first question I'll have to give you a bit of a backstory. Right now, we're halfway into the Edgy Eft (6.10) release of Ubuntu and we're nearing the so-called Feature Freeze. Over the past two months we've been coming up with artistic ideas, textures, colors, compositions, styles, looks and other ideas. The last few weeks were spent creating semi-final produced artwork which will be polished after the freeze. For Edgy, we drafted a plan and schedule to get the artwork done to make sure we work as a structured artwork team. The plan and schedule containing details are available on the following two Wiki pages, it's definitely worth a look to see where we're at in the big picture right now: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Specs/EdgyArtworkPlan https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Specs/ArtworkProcess Where we can use help right now is creating accessibility (large black and white) icons and -within a few days- polishing the chosen artwork direction after the freeze. I'm sure I forgot some things here, so to everyone: feel free to chime in. Also, good (long-term) ideas are welcome on the mailing list, right now we've got some "spare" time to discuss artwork related subjects. If you hang out on the IRC channel #ubuntu-art on Freenode, you're sure to pick up some interesting discussions as well. Again, welcome to the team Steven, I hope you enjoy your stay here. With kind regards, Frank Schoep -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
