| = Platypus = TEST Being a shy but elegant animal, the platypus is often ignored by the Ubuntu artwork community. This must not go on. We need art that can bring the characteristics of this wonderful little animal to Ubuntu. |

| == Concept == The platypus, is shy, cute and dangerous. An interesting mix. The artwork should be in adorable colours, with a few small, menacing areas. Mostly orange and pink. Touches of danger, can be expressed in small, dark, shapes difficult to define. Make them reminscent of the poisonous hind spur in shape. |
Here's a suggestion for a dark wallpaper for Herdy. I've used the old Gusty wallpaper. Maybe this isn't the best example, but I think it's very important that a new version of Ubuntu looks like Ubuntu. With changes of course, but some elements has to stay. |

| * I've seen some wicked stuff throught the years, but yours really kicks ass! - Anonymousman123 Today, during Twilight. * In Sweden we also have this lovely animal, as well as "knekkebrøt" and polar bears - JachniNücklycken Today, 14:23 08/10/07 * Your concept needs work, make sure you don't make it too cute. The demographic has always been those in their 20's and 30's. - FOSSArtist63 34:43 12/54/23 * I think this animal opens the way to perfect contrasts in a theme / wallpaper / whatever. It's cute in a way, but also dark and itchy, which doesn't have to be the 'Ubuntu message' but it's useful in colorshemes and so on. In other words, nice! - TotalWormage * The platypus - a sort of strange brown penguin. Hmmmm... I think I like the idea! |
