Giovanni already made one for gnome-weather:

Something along the lines of this?

GNOME Maps gives you quick access to maps across the world. Quickly find the place you're looking for by searching for a city or street, or locate a place to meet a friend by searching for "Pubs near Main Street, Boston."
Maps uses the collaborative OpenStreetMap database, made by thousands of people across the globe.

Allan said the more proper name was Maps not GNOME Maps, so lets go with that.

Maps gives you quick access to maps across the world. Quickly find the
place you're looking for by searching for a city or street, or locate a place
to meet a friend by searching for "Pubs near Main Street, Boston."

thats fine but a patch would be nice so it can be reviewed inline.
Comment 6 Mattias Bengtsson 2013-08-30 15:30:52 UTC
From http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors :

"There are over one million registered OpenStreetMap users". 

And from http://neis-one.org/2013/01/oooc/ :

"Last but not least some stats: Today (Jan 6th, 2012) the OpenStreetMap project has  reached 1 000 000 registered members. Around 300 000 (30%) of all contributors created at least one changeset and about 200 000 (20%) volunteers created at least one Node."

So I think we can say "made by hundreds of thousands of people
across the globe" without exaggerating.

We want to resize this to 800x600 as per spec recommendation. `convert gnome-maps.png -resize 800x600 gnome-maps.png` should do the trick.
