A list or a road map is a good first step. Don't spend time 
creating images or mockups at this point. :)

We have an etherpad site where you can store and share the road map:

I don't remember how to create an account. :( Contact Tim.

One challenge with changing art work is changing the respective 
files for all theme and icon collections. These tend to be 
scattered about but mostly in tdelibs, tdebase, and tdeartwork.

Rather than modify any of the existing icon themes, a same approach 
is just changing a handful of files while retaining consistency 
with the theme style.

New art work helps promote a new project identity, yet we want to 
retain some roots to KDE 3. Trinity is a continuation of the KDE 3 
model and we don't want to abandon those roots. We probably need 
some kind of list discussion about which specific images to change, 
but for myself I prefer to retain the "T in the gear" images.

On the other hand, a new mascot is a great idea. I also like the 
idea of a complete rebranding of chalk images.
