What I'd like to say is that I like the picture, but at the same time I'd
prefer not to use any paid image sources for Pan. Not that I want to
discourage anybody from buying anything, however, at least we'd have to make
sure that the image in question is licensed under GPL or GPL-compatible
license. That's a hard requirement for us as Pan itself is free software.

There are no other "GNOME guidelines" out there apart from the licensing
requirements, we are free to do whatever we want with Pan, since Pan is not
an official part of the GNOME Desktop, it only uses GNOME infrastructure,
to a degree, that is.

Other than that, the contest sounds like a good idea!

Cheers,
