Right, it has a sleek and polished look about it. Very Nice. However,
Akkana raised some valid points --The logo is too tiny to be properly
visible if this logo is used as is on the website. Currently the word
"women" is dwarfed by Ubuntu -- It would be nicer if "women" were in a
larger font size, sharing equal screen space with "Ubuntu".

IMHO, logo's convey an important message of the brand, largely via
symmetry, colour and balance (in size) -- the wrong proportions may
reduce the impact we seek to have.
