Hi All,

Nora (who made the backgrounds+login screen for OI) is looking to work 
on the OpenIndiana website, which is badly in need of some love and 
attention from someone with graphical talents.

Right now the easiest/quickest thing to do would be to continue using 
Wordpress, and replace the current theme with a new one, and customise 
that to fit. She has done some digging on the Internet and found a bunch 
of paid for themes that could be used, and put them on a poll:

http://polldaddy.com/poll/4909414/

(The options are hyperlinks showing the theme)

If you could all click through and have a look at the themes, and vote 
on your favourite, that would be appreciated. She can then put together 
a dev website which people can provide feedback on, which could then be 
swapped in to replace the current site.

Longer term the project may want to consider a re-brand, but in the 
short term improving the current website is critical, as the current one 
looks pretty hobbyist.

Cheers,

Alasdair
