Announcing the chosen banners:<br>
<br>
First, it was a very tough decision. The entries this time around were<br>
fabulous! It took us a whole extra day to decide which ones to use because<br>
there were so many great choices. But, we have to choose and so we did.<br>
<br>
Our first choice was Mart?n C?sare's "logo as a progress bar" shown at<br>
<a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner#Mart%C3%ADn%20C%C3%A9sare%27s%20Mockups%28he" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner#Mart%C3%ADn%20C%C3%A9sare%27s%20Mockups(he</a><br>
has made some minor adjustments to this so the final version does look<br>
a<br>
bit different)<br>
<br>
Great job Martin!<br>
<br>
Our second choice was Thorwil's "circles" shown at<br>
<a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner#Circles" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner#Circles</a> We loved the<br>
way it progresses inwards, it really builds excitement.<br>
<br>
Our third choice was a split decision, we couldn't pick only one, so we<br>
chose:<br>
<br>
Alejandro Rojas'<br>
<a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner#Alejandro%20Rojas%27%20Design" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/MaverickCountdownBanner#Alejandro%20Rojas%27%20Design</a><br>
and<br>
Koichi Akabe's<br>
