I don't know what font the number is. I tried WhatTheFont but it isn't very helpful (hope the link works):
The font used for the C5 release number is Denmark, though. So if you're working on artwork for C7 I suggest you just use Denmark, the 7 is quite nice :)
Hey folks :-)
Looking at the RHEL 7 release candidate which has the new Anaconda, some things have changed, and I was thinking whether it would make sense to simply use the basic "CentOS" visual style for the installer, without any specific version numbering: (mockup image made with Gimp)

That looks good.
As you can see, the version number is there just as text.
As for the "Version 7" thing, it might be nice to promote that more on the installed OS itself, as that's what users will be seeing.
I also came up with this kind of idea for the wallpaper:

<personal preference> I really like the concept, but I'm a fan of darker backgrounds</personal preference>
Now, adding the rather bold and strong logo on this image would not match the style that well - so what if we allowed ourselves a bit of creative freedom on wallpapers? :-)
If you want to test a fullsize wallpaper, see this:
