Perhaps the most obvious choice is Gnome logo + Ubuntu colours.

You cannot use the Ubuntu roundel without transforming the entire logo into a combination, which Ubuntu does not allow. But if Gnome does not allow standalone use of the Gnome logo, yeah..

Personally I feel this new roundel is devoid of significance (the form). The colours are not Ubuntu and the logo is not Gnome. I like the colour but the logo is very clinical, it might be the logo of some medical technology supplier. I'm reminded of disinfection ;-).

Well good luck with it. I just feel Gnome is 90% of the identity of Ubuntu Gnome, there are not many distributions that focus on a single desktop exclusively, so Ubuntu is like the context (the environment/frame) while Gnome is the essence (or interior). Another logo for "gnome" is a 'thumb' or even a 'hat', a 'pipe', a 'toadstool', a 'tree' as long as it's something organic or natural. Ubuntu Gnome - lots of little footprints together ;-).

Anyway, good luck with it.


Quoting Satyajit Sahoo <[email protected]>:

In a standalone logo, when you show a GNOME footprint, it basically screams
GNOME, and the identity of Ubuntu GNOME is lost.

If the symbol will never appear without the text, then what you say is
true.  However, if the symbol part will also be *standalone*, which I
would prefer then the footprint is very important.

I'm new to the group, so have no knowledge of previous discussions. All I
can say, from one user's perspective, is that the present logo is
excellent. The footprint says 'gnome' and the circle says 'ubuntu'. I'm
even planning of making myself a t-shirt with just the logo. Obviously,
this just one person's subjective opinion.

The font used is in GNOME's, the colors are GNOME-ish, and the name
itself has "GNOME". So there is already enough connections to GNOME, I
think.

Not my cup of tea. IMHO, without some connection to the Gnome footprint,
it's meaningless.
