Wonderful ideas in there. A few quick questions: 1 - I have long promoted the ditching of the Ubuntu title font in everything outside of the word "Ubuntu". Are you against changing the 'logo' to a font outside of the Ubuntu title font family? It is a sub-optimal font for anything other than the Ubuntu name. 2 - I assume you are providing a quick mechanism to link in with Launchpad services? Bugs / Blueprints / etc? The "copy / paste" links are a very smart inclusion. 3 - Are you going to include categories? I would imagine a big slush is sub-optimal. > But unfortunately my artistic skills are not as good as my programming > ones!

Size? Where will it be integrated in the samples you provided? > - Some "images links". An "image link" is a image template, in which > we add some text with GD.

What other information is going to be in there in terms of letters or numbers? I assume you are using Imagemagick as a back end, and as such, are there limitations in the font selection? 5 - Is this to be supplied via a Canonical server or a third party server location? Once again, this is a wonderful idea... TJS
