I have been a lurking member of the ubuntu art list for a while, although I am not an artist. What *is* good artwork? Thinking about it, I do not see examples of group art around me in the world - art is generally a matter of individual taste. Most screenshots offered as worthy or good, do not impress me personally, although some obviously impress others. Ubuntu is aimed at a world wide multi cultural user base. 'Good' art will need to cross cultural boundaries' -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
