Hi Jens,

If it is work that you want, I have some.  :)

I am currently working on a new game which will hopefully go into the kde 
games.  The game in question is Amazons[1]. I need somebody to design a nice 
board, the amazons pieces and the arrows. Note that the wikipedia article is 
wrong because Amazons is played on a 10x10 board, not 8x8. 

If you think this is an interesting task (at least it should be pretty small) 
then I think you can get some info on how the files should be organized by 
looking at kreversi. There seems to be one SVG file with everything in it.

For a start just the pieces would be enough, but if you want to go all in, 
then an animation with an amazon shooting an arrow would give the game a 
certain amount of class, don't you agree?

Looking forward to hear from you.

Best regards
Inge Wallin
