Hi David, Ron, all,

Thanks!
Indeed it is important to share your work with this group as you already 
did before.

This is the right approach in my eyes - that's the place we should 
collect and work on all the proposals, drafts and iterations of our 
designs and artwork.

We might discuss the structure later, but the wiki is definitely the way 
to go.

Please don't promise something you can't hold.

Sorry, this is not the way it should go.

The design team has to decide about the places where our artwork and 
design should be presented.

I'm definitely against uploading all our proposals and drafts to the 
website, where only finally approved graphics should be presented for 
download.

We want to present the community in a mature and professional way, 
providing graphical resources with a high quality and consistent branding.

Therefore every artwork to be uploaded to the website should have a "go" 
from this team.

Our numerically main resource will be at the wiki, containing all 
proposals, drafts and great artwork not following the present branding 
(but perhaps the basis for the next branding iteration).

We definitely need a structure for these resources, so we can link from 
the website to this area.

David, you probably want to wait for a specific comment by Christoph and 
Ivan, but please don't consider no reply - especially in days, where we 
have to find our way through several hundred mails per day - as approval 
of your ideas.

Best regards

Bernhard
