I understand the concept of brand consistency and while I would love to
have the art people create beautiful art and not be restricted, I
personally think that keeping the brand colours is important.

The link to Coca-Cola is one such example. The other is Dell who uses
their name more so than their colours.  Fedora has just recreated it's
brand lets not give a different impression otherwise it will get
confusing.
