The desktop colour should not be too bright, or it becomes tiring to
look at all day. We generally have chosen to go with darker, richer
colours so that there is less strain on the eyes. Also, we are
preferring not to have distro branding that is so obvious  (the big
Ubuntu logo) but instead to choose images which are distinctive enough
that they are immediately recognisable in screenshots to anyone who
has worked with Ubuntu before.


I think this is very important.  We need to establish a
clear idea as to how much branding is acceptable.

Perhaps during the proposal phase we can offer up a good
spectrum of similar ideas that feature branding through
to non branding in a good gradual progression.

We should probably collect this comment as well.  Niel?

It's also important to note that bright backgrounds just don't seem to cut it in general due to the poor size and opacity of the shadow underneath white text underneath desktop icons.

That nice rendition of the logo that Niklas made might be useful in other contexts, however.

PS: Niklas, could you provide a source version or 32-bit transparent PNG of that logo (http://www.weidel.se/gfx/desktop2%201400.png)? I'm sure it'll be useful for others.
