  3. Developing Nightingale further (mizmo, 19:56:03)
    1. IDEA: if we took that kind of paper-cut-out approach like Little Big Planet's artwork has we could use various kinds of stripes as some of the textures (mizmo, 19:56:16)

    3. challenge #1 avoiding too high frequency / too high contrast imagery... the wallpaper version needs to work well as a non-distracting background (mizmo, 19:58:44)
    4. challenge #2 an artwork style that can also be used as a graceful accent on other pieces so we can try some of the gnome 3 integration wallpaper ideas we talked abotu (mizmo, 19:59:44)
    5. IDEA: maybe have the wallpaper drawn onto a stripe-textured 'paper'? like this http://thepianomasque.deviantart.com/art/The-Goddess-of-Nature-137832044 (mizmo, 20:06:12)
