Ubuntu GNOME logo design

[Alfredo Hernández]

You're welcome. Actually, in the designs, it works a lot better. The
original one felt like some kind of one worded e-mail address or something.

About colour, I think we all agree Adwaita blue is very GNOMEish and is
very accordant with the distro appearance. We could use other tones of
blue, but the one used is particularly brightish and works well in several
situations.

Regards, Alfredo.
Hi Alfredo,

Thanks for incorporating my feedback. For what it's worth, I love your
designs.

Cheers,
Dave
