It is called "Ubuntu Software Center" , whether it is present in any other derivative or not. ;-) AFAIK, there are no plans to allow renaming the "Ubuntu Software Center" when it's available in the derivatives. Looking like Unity/Ubuntu does not mean using only the Ubuntu colors, as I mentioned my idea was about the patterns, which to a user is not a huge change when seen in the derivatives. If the derivatives feel strongly about it, they could over-write the images. And rebrand the app accordingly.. -- Cheers, Vish -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
