Hi all,

sorry for not replying with thread,, the message body is getting garbled.

Thanks Christoph, I've got a quick break in my research so I can pitch 
in a little more this week.
I might go into details in a personal email, but the outcome was good! 
=) So I have 1 week of "free" time

Besides, this is a somewhat urgent LibO matter right? (the fund-raising)

Sure, thanks for doing that!
In the mean time, people mentioned images for the donations pages would 
be helpful.
I've created 2 "cartoon" images that might be useful (or maybe not =).
It's a piggy-bank and a coin-stack, they aren't great or many, but it's 
all I could get done in a couple of hours =(
Here is the preview PNG;

and here is the SVG;

Hope you find a use for them somewhere (on donation webpages/banners). 
If they are useful I'll make more.
If you do use them, make sure they are small otherwise the subtle flaws 
will be more visible.

Pfft "precious time", you're priceless Christoph =)
I've uploaded the PSD here;

Consider it whatever license will allow you to do whatever you need with 
it, attribution-less, no-rights-reserved kinda deal.
I'd be happy to join a focused discussion too.
Actually I have a whole buncha stuff I've been saving up for a chat on 
the Design-list.
I think Johannes is going to cover a lot of that, though =)

By the way, this banner;

Is looking BLOODY amazing.
