A good logo takes quite some work and thinking into into it and is a 
good application project I think. Especially if we specify that we want 
one or two variants of it to choose from, exploring different approaches.
For a longer project, perhaps something related to Snowy would be good. 
The website graphics is already taken care of [1], but perhaps some 
texts for a information website and printed material could be good.
Another idea, if it turns out this person is good at logos, maybe we can 
assign her to doing logos. I'm sure we could find other logos that needs 
to be (re)done in GNOME.
I would be happy to mentor something like this.

Will also give some more thinking to this and ask around among the other 
designers and see if there is anything else that needs done.
