Your artwork could be featured in the next Debian release

What happened

The Debian Linux project has opened a call for community artwork submissions ahead of the release of the upcoming Forky (Debian 14). Continuing Debian's community-driven ethos, the artwork submission process mirrors that of previous releases.

The artwork must feel distinctively "Debian," integrate cleanly without the need for core software patching, and remain visually appealing for the long term. Debian Linux has put a call out for artist submissions for its next release: Forky.

If you think you've got the artistic chops, your art could appear on the boot screens, login prompts, and desktop wallpapers of millions of users. Elise Couper's "Ceratopsian" theme was chosen as the winning default for Debian 13 Trixie .
