[Mageia-artwork] Design for Mageia 2

[Max Quarterpleen]

Are we or are we not allowed to change the colors of the logo?
If so, to what colors can we change it?
Here we are, after having been chastised for manipulating the logo in the
installer screens trying to do our damnedest not to manipulate the logo for
the background and still make it look good. And then you come in and say
"oh, but what about *this*?"

I wish that this were better defined, and that the council members had
gotten involve earlier in the process.
Same deal with the installer screens. You can't sit there silently
throughout the whole creative process, and then come in at the deadline and
say "no, we can't do that".
That hurts, a lot.
It means that all of the work we have been doing until now isn't good
enough. And when I do take initiative and reach out to council members
asking "*this* is what we want to do, is that OK with you?" I get volumes
of silence. But then, a week before everything needs to be finished you
guys come in and say "Oh, what's been going on? This? no, that's not good
enough".
It's enough to make one resentful.
