User Feedback :: New DSL Theme/Icon Contest

The point of using the "DSL" abbreviation was to hide the Full Name of DSL from people who are offended by the first word.

You can choose to substitue other words for the "D" like for example:

Darn Small Linux

etc

How about "Distributing Small Linux"

one could call it "DSL" if one would like... lol (I'm so good)

why not visit www.xpde.com and implement this theme

First, xpde is not a "theme"; it is a desktop environment.
Second, the first and last time i tested out xpde it absolutely stunk.
Third, xpde is ugly as sin. Why would a Linux distro want to emulate an inferior product?
Fourth, if the DSL team ever had a severe lapse of judgement and decided to add xpde, that would be my last day with DSL and my first day wth a DSL fork.
:laugh:

I have to second that.
why would anyone want to do something like xpde just boggles the mind, i mean mimick a theme that mimicks XP??

Because to spread the work you have to talk like people will understand you. that's why
xpde is a great idea. it will get more people to the linux world. then they will switch to a different windows manager and a different and hopefully better look and feel.
it's a question of strategy.

I vote for the back pocket image, or something similar.

HEY! How about an image of a _couple,_ each with their own TUX in their hip pocket?

That would get around accuzations that we're being sexist.
