> Hi folks
>
> We have a usability problem in Software Updater (formerly known as
> Update Manager).
>
> The problem is that when the updates dialog appears by itself, there's
> no visual clue that this is an official Ubuntu thing. In Ubuntu 12.10
> and earlier, the icon is just a brown box with an orange arrow. And in
> Raring right now, it's an "A" with a progress bar and arrows around it
> -- again, nothing obviously to do with Ubuntu, and a bit of a non
> sequitur too.
>
> So, it would help if we had a new icon, one which obviously
> communicates that these are official updates for Ubuntu.
>
> One possibility that I've suggested is an airdrop -- a wooden box
> being lowered by parachute, where either the box or the parachute (but
> not both!) features the Ubuntu logo.
> <http://www.google.com/search?q=airdrop&tbm=isch> Maybe you have other
> ideas too.
>
> Please post your proposals here, or DeviantArt, or Imgur, or wherever
> suits you, and link to them in a reply here.
>
> Let's get something really classy into Ubuntu 13.04.

> Thanks!
