Roman,<br><br>Thanks for the screenshot.<br><br>I do not think the Kubuntu icon looks good at small sizes, and therefor I do not think it can easily be made to look good for the K button.<br><br>I think this is because at small sizes, the small gears look like blurred snowflakes, which makes the icon difficult to distinguish at small sizes.<br>
<br>In this case Roman has added an outer glow to the logo to increase contrast around the edges of the logo. I feel strongly that outer glow should be used in moderation, and in this case I do not think it compliments the polished look of the AIR or Oxygen desktop themes.<br>
<br>I will suggest (although off-topic) using a logo that <a href="http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Kubuntu+Logo+Mock-Up?content=110532">does not use the gears</a> in such a small instance. Of course, I think this wouldn't fly as it is not the official logo.<br>
<br>However, I think a modified version of the original logo would be much more distinguishable as a K button, similar to the polished look of the gnome's <a href="http://linux.avasys.jp/customerservice/images/pips3x_ubuntu804_04_e.png">Ubuntu button</a>. (Notice the small drop-shadow used in the Ubuntu screenshot and no outer glow).<br>
