Um... just a thought, Ubuntu UK is aimed at well, folks in the UK right?

Why limit it so imagery which is distinctively British?

I was wondering if maybe we could have pictures of places from across 
the UK?

Out of the mockups though, I like number 1.  Actually I'm not bothered 
by the London Skyline myself, is the London Eye in there?  (That's one 
of the first things I think of followed by Buckingham Palace).
