Hi folks.. I would like to suggest to change the Header and Footer images on the wiki to match the latest release of Fedora... i think a DNA blend in the graphic will give it a more vibrant look and with even better graphics coming every new release the Fedora website will look refreshing and new in just one change...

It is a good suggestion but IMO changing the look and feel for every single release has the disadvantage that it looks inconsistent for folks not running the latest release. Perhaps someone in Fedora art list would be interested in this.

It seems like it would be smartest to make the Fedora website graphics more generic, and leaving the release-specific artwork for any banners/graphics relating to the current release.
It's just way too much work to update all of the artwork involved across Fedora websites for every release, and as it is we have a dearth of artists and designers.

This is an interesting idea. It is a different practice than the past. To be clear, you are suggesting that starting now, we re-fresh the look of the Website to match the graphical look of the current release of Fedora.
The best (and only) place to discuss this is on fedora-websites-list (Reply-to set), or by filing a bug report with examples/graphics/patches attached. f-ambassadors-l is for Ambassador business and event discussion, while f-marketing-l is a strategic marketing list.
