IMHO, it is a bit too crowded and doesn't have flow of eyesight:

The idea of rocket with smoke is great. And it would be greater if other 
objects like tree, human, rocks could be smaller to reduce the 
competition to be the 'main object'.

How about having some rounded stars?

On design sense this one is much better:

However, the wear-and-tear pattern is 'exposed': see the same 
butterfly-like pattern is repeated 4 times vertically in the centre of 
the picture?

BTW, once again as I have mentioned in previous Fedora releases, that 
this 'sun ray' design might be recognized as a taboo to Asian peoples. 
Check this out:

This flag is almost the symbol of the invasion of Japan in WW2, which 
brought massive pain to Asian countries. There was a famous actress from 
China wear at a fashion show once a few years ago:

http://zhgpl.com/doc/1001/8/7/6/100187601.html?coluid=7&kindid=0&docid=100187601

who was boycotted for quite couple of years. I would compare that to:

just FYI how sun-ray design have to be applied wisely.

Cheers, kaio. :)
