Hi Scott,

I didn't see much in the way of response to your mock up -- well, except the 
question about CafePress's stock and sourcing thereof which isn't directly 
related to the KDE store itself. So I'll take a stab at it:

 - Gosh, it looks all very square and blocky. I think that's because of the 
square-and-sharp-cornered K-logo.
 - It'd be nice if the wallpaper behind the "KDE Store" label somehow matched 
the wallpaper background of the whole page.
 - Perhaps a category "Applications" would work, too, to make some space for, 
say, sporting a Falkon t-shirt or drinking from a KWin mug (if KWin has a 
logo).

And there's probably a little wrangling to do to distinguish the KDE Store 
(for merch) from the KDE Store (store.kde.org, for downloads). Not in a 
legalistic sense, but to make things cross-pollinate.

Thanks for putting this mock up together!
