well, first of all, the chance that a b/w mouse cursor theme will blend well with your background of choice is better that with the blue cursors. I realize that I can just change it, but that's slightly beside my point that we should make sure Fedora looks as appealing as possible by default.
opinions differ and there will be no right answer.
Very true! But that should still mean that we should aim at having something that most people would like by default - How about a fedora logo competition! That would be a fair way to find the best logo suitable for fedora.
And i certainly do not think that the red hat logo on the desktop that we have enjoyed for so long, is any more appropriate or even more informational than a separate fedora project logo. I think its very important and very informational to be able to distinguish which distribution you are using at a glance at the default desktop even with windows open obscuring the wallpaper. The fedora logo on the gnome panel finally makes a clearly visible distinction that someone is on a fedora desktop and not on a rhel system. As a matter of function and informative content.. any fedora specific logo is a change for the better. And there is absolutely no point in arguing about the style of the logo.. matters of style have no right answer and the style of the logo isn't going to change.
I am all for Fedora having a distict logo. I'm also for Fedora looking as appealing as possible by default. I believe that the logo should have the same high-quality look that the rest of the default icons have.
And remember - I'm not interested in just having things my-way(tm) - Thats not the point of this thread.
