Public bug reported: In the Saucy Salamander wallpapers set, the image Saucy_Salamander_Abstract_by_José_Vera_alcivar.jpg contains an abstract illustration of a salamander and a slightly tweaked rendering of the Ubuntu logo. The image contains a deep purple, textured background and it is stored as a low quality jpg image.
The Ubuntu logo section of the brand guide (http://design.ubuntu.com/brand/ubuntu-logo) lists several specific rules, and we are clearly going against some of those: The circle of friends in this wallpaper is not quite a circle. The logo is not being placed against a brand colour. The logo is not using one of the six available colourways. There is not sufficient empty space between the logo and other elements. In addition, as a result of the compression (and the nature of scaling rendered text in a bitmap, as will always be happening in a background picture), the logo appears fuzzy. There is nothing in particular that says this is off brand, but I'm sure we can agree it is: Ubuntu's logo is sharp and precise, and it should stay that way. Suggested remedies: Get this image as a PNG, relocate the logo with the correct shape and colours, or remove the logo from the image altogether. ** Affects: ubuntu-wallpapers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - Saucy_Salamander_Abstract_by_José_Vera_alcivar.jpg contains blurry, ugly text + Saucy_Salamander_Abstract wallpaper is off brand ** Summary changed: - Saucy_Salamander_Abstract wallpaper is off brand + Saucy_Salamander_Abstract wallpaper conflicts with brand guidelines -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1227791 Title: Saucy_Salamander_Abstract wallpaper conflicts with brand guidelines To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-wallpapers/+bug/1227791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
