MX Linux Forum

Not sure why that is, but I do know, anything that is posted in to Development, Art, can not be viewed be regular users, so no feedback from regular members. Any art that I post now has to be posted twice, once in Development & once in MX-Art

Development >> General >> Art Discussion , which is where the WP sub-board is, is open to all.

So this thread showcasing the wallpapers is in an open section of the forum yet not together with the rest of the art stuff in the open section. That's why I'm confused.

It's only Development >> Development Team >> Art, which is not open. That is where discussions and decisions that relate to the artwork for the official releases are discussed at appropriate times.

User Contributed Wallpaper and User Contributed Icons were recently added in Development General so that all users could see contributions, and is where art contributions should be posted. There is no need to post twice. I related this in a post earlier.

@antechdesigns, As you may recall I stated the above to you in a PM.

As Asqwerth stated the Development>Art forum is for discussions on what art will be used in releases.

But there is still also MX >> General >> MX Art, which confuses things.

I know!

I was told to post some art to Development >> Development Team >> Art which is not visible to regular users, So I do have to post twice if I want to receive feedback from regular users.
Once in: Development >> Development Team >> Art (hidden) viewforum.php?f=119
Once in: MX - ACTIVELY DEVELOPED AND SUPPORTED - >> General >> MX Art (not hidden) viewforum.php?f=116

Told by whom? I may have said that originally, but revised that with the PM to you. When the development phase starts we would link to the open forum or the Community web site to your contributions to discuss them. Absolutely no need to double post.

It does seem confusing, I agree. I first looked for them in Community Submissions myself.

@Rich: if you don't want to move them, what would you think of making cross-reference stickies in the places that asqwerth and I looked with a subject something like this:

See also General > User contributed icons/wallpapers

What if I move the two sub-forums User Contributed Icons and User Contributed Wallpaper to sub-forums of MX >> General >> MX Art, taking them out of Development>>General?

I'm good with that. I would then change the links on the new Art page.

Done.
