I made a small modification of my favorite submission by needscoffee

To be frank, I prefer the original vertically striped background to those sun rays.

this one certainly appeals to me

the typography could do with some revision. but i like the background illustration.

I prefer this one: http://needcoffee.deviantart.com/art/Inkscape-0-46-About-Screen-73478652 but the perspective could be made less "dramatic" so that 0.46 is more easily read.

Quite some time ago, I started some drawings with the ambition to turn them into submissions for about screen contest. I turns out I won't have time to finish those. If someone is interested in starting from them, or is lacking inspiration, or just finds them nice enough to work on them, please use them: http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/Inkscape-about.zip The "reflexion" one could use some 3D work for example, the logo should probably be bended into an horizontal perspective, the engraving one needs to be finished etc etc. Anyway, everything is included in the zip (bitmap, font) and you don't even have to credit me.

I like the entries by hrum and needcoffee the best, but to be honest I am not really happy with any of them yet.

Maybe the restriction of only being able to submit two entries is limiting people from adding further polish? I notice a comment in the needcoffee piece about this.

For future contests we may want to re-evaluate whether to limit the number of submissions, or to make it clear that they can send updates for an entry until the submission deadline.

Since I won't be around this weekend, I'll go ahead and thrown in the submission I started working on today. Wish I would have thought of an idea earlier!
