Title:
Consider changing "Activities" text to Ubuntu icon image by default
for brand recognition
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Opinion
Bug description:
On June 6th I ran a poll on Ubuntu's Google+ community asking if users
thought the "Activities" text looked better in the top-left of the
screen for the Activities button, or the Ubuntu logo (traditional or
modified to fit the top panel style).
Here are the results:
https://plus.google.com/+JesseDuBordFilms/posts/LEjy6zxmNw3.
Out of 169 participants, 87% thought the icon would look better.
Wanted to officially bring it to the table for considertion.
Benefits being:
- Less ambiguous (the word "Activities" doesn't immediately depict the
button's purpose or function to the user, in my opinion).
- Greater recognition for the Ubuntu brand. Nowhere on the default desktop
does it show the Ubuntu logo, I think this is a greatly missed opportunity.
Even Unity had the Ubuntu logo prominently on the top button of the dash.
I feel like this warrants some consideration on the marketing and
design team's end.
