Hello, This is not really the correct list (this list is about the art.gnome.org website). Replying also to gnome-themes-list which should be more appropriate.

I did not follow the discussion on gnome-i18n, but could you explain further? Is the Foot logo considered offensive in Latin America? I wonder whether it would be good enough to figure out where the foot is not acceptable, and then create a secondary logo that is fine in all of these regions. For example the International Red Cross has accepted multiple logos and the different countries just use the one that is more appropriate for them. > However, we need some good graphics for these candidates > to be evaluated.
