Just a quick note, since it has been discussed before at Peter's blog and
it's clear the direction that GIMP will take regarding its UI:
I disagree when Peter says that a nodal UI works as a form of visual

As far as I can tell, that's because the 3D program where you created your

I'd move the band with the logo to the left a little, maybe 10 or 15
px, to compensate the space around it. It feels like too close to the
brushes.
I think it looks pretty good.
