You know how PC's have that whole 'Designed for Microsoft Windows' stickers on them? Well:

Hehe :)
It's just a quick GIMP markup, but it's still pretty nice.
EDIT: Also you know how Windows software has the pretty Windows X(Compatible Versions) icon/logo/whatever on it?

That would be neat if I had a sticker like that because Ubuntu linux rocks.

Why do you think I made the sticker :) even though it was a quickie it took me 15-25 minutes to do. Hope you like it.

Hehe, enjoy :). The nice thing about the Ubuntu stickers versus the evil stickers of Windows, you can stick them on almost anything instead of a x86 machine :) Have fun deccing you eBuntu(Couldn't resist) with the latest gear. Hey, another job for me, be right back. *Rushes of, opens GIMP, makes eBuntu sticker*

I don't suppose you're aware that there is an official Ubuntu typeface (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuTitle)?
Oh, and why don't you toss in a gradient or two for this one:

It'd look better. Just a little constructive criticism.

One more thing: if you plan on posting many more images, it would be appreciated if you linked to them rather than use them in the body of the post; that just slows down the page.

I'll take the typeface and stuff into mind and redo some stuff. Also, I made sure my images would load nice and fast, they are around 7KB a peice, gotta love PNG. Anyways, if I get a whole show going I will make sure to link them.

Okay, good deal. I was just wondering, because even files that are 7kb a piece tend to pile up after a while, and it just gets slow and horrible.

Also, I can't seem to get to the download, it's busted.(Talking about the font)

you certain? I got a page not found from some server, but it still downloaded. Double-check your download directory.

Compare it to the original

I used some gradients as recommended, and also found a better way to round the corners. Overall it's a lot nicer. And 32KB in size :( wasn't expecting that

With the official Ubuntu title font and a gradient, it looks much nicer.
One more thing: in this (http://img494.imageshack.us/img494/9228/designedforubuntu24kn.png) picture, the Ubuntu logo looks a wee bit squashed. Aside from that, it looks good.

Ya, instead of the usual diagnol scale GIMP usually gives me it didn't for some reason. I'll look into it.
