I have created a banner and put it at my wiki space[1] as suggestion to the new face of fedoraproject.org home page.
However, when I commited the page I got a "UnicodeEncodeError". :s I asked (by e-mail) to Paulo fix it, if he could do that.

These look good! We do already have one in place though for F7 which I think is already prepared for distribution to the mirrors,
but this is good work! Would you mind if I made it available on our banner graphics page on the Fedora wiki?

Then people can use this banner on their webpage to link to Fedora as they like.
Thanks for the great work! If you have time please check out the Fedora art team, we have a lot of need for talented artists like you!

I just do not know how the websites project really works yet. So, I sent my suggestion, because I thought that it still had time for changes.

It happens we just locked-down the content for the release, for the first few days, at least.
Perhaps we can have a rotating banner? New community-produced banner every week or month?

The idea sounds great for me. I like when Google changes your logo in special dates.
+1!!!
We could have a release-specific one when a release is newly out and when we're in-between releases maybe pick interesting Fedora-related events like FUDcons and Summer of Code and such, and when its not so busy little ads to recruit folks for specific Fedora teams/SIGs.
This could operate similar to how gnome.org's frontpage banner works - someone on the GNOME marketing team will have an idea to publicize a specific event using a front page banner, and then volunteers from the GNOME art community will submit designs and work with each other to produce the final artwork.
I think it's a great idea.

Cool. Can you kick off the process through the Art team? We can have ideas initially proposed and vetted on fedora-marketing-list. This keeps the Art team from having to decide on what is or is not appropriate. Once an idea is vetted, then the Art team picks it up and runs with it.
