[Clipart] Off-topic: Annoucning Linux anniversary picnic & a logo creation contest

[Gerald Ganson]

I did B&W in this instance because at least 1/2 if the intended use,
likely more, will be laser printed menus or flyers.
Since B&W just comes off cleaner in this application, I decided to do
both.

You'll find I do this from time to time. 

Glad to hear the list approves, I was worried that it might be seen as
redundant, since a user could edit out the colours.
In reality though it can be time consuming and difficult to do so
depending on the image, so I went ahead and included both.

Yeah, I think that is a wise strategy for artists to diversify their
artwork, as many times it is good to have either or both for
compositions. When I do compositions I usually do everything in B & W
and then convert to color last so I don't have to deal with all those
issues till the end.
