[Ubuntu-be] New banners for the Be LoCo Team

[Matthew Deboysere]

I agree actually about the LoCo-part. It's like we are crazy, which I
suppose we aren't. Local Community is a better way, but also this name
actually needs an update, although we are not allowed to change that,
aren't we?

I suppose Belgian Team is the best way to describe it. I'll have a look
once I get home after work and try to figure out what to do for a new BLCT
logo.

(yeah, I'm back... a bit. I'm now living in England until the end of June,
because of my internship. Got to do something, right?)
