[Mageia-marketing] Installer advertisement pictures

[Esteban Mora]

Hi,

It's me, the guy from Costa Rica. I was thinking the same a couple of weeks
ago. I installed the alpha release and noticed that the pictures were the
same. I have some ideas and I think I can help with some designs (or at
least, prototypes). But I need the grid and the Mageia logo in SVG format.
Where can I find them?

> - Mageia is knowledge
> - Mageia is quality
> - Mageia is open relations
