I like how that suggests the presence of a parachute without actually
showing it. Clever.

The style is a bit unusual. Most icons in Ubuntu are drawn as objects
with hyper-realistic shading and outlines, and no backdrop of their
own. Even Ubuntu One, which is a solid flat logo in print and on the
Web, has subtle lighting and shadows when drawn as an icon. So an icon
like yours, with flat and nearly-flat shapes and a circular backdrop,
would be a bit incongruous.

Cheers
