Sorry for late reply, I hope it's not too late because I can't see this

and it's one if its major pros, so it's perfectly

Hi,
in my opinion you should remove the mirrored circles ( the lower ones)
on the front, as that makes it look too complicated. Furthermore Tux
doesn't have to do anything with the Ubuntu brand, so I'd remove that, too.

I tend to call it that way since I mess with code more. I know design basics

About TUX and COF logo on front, yes, I noticed that they still look

Yes, back pictograms are disconnected from the corresponding text, and
that is something I tend to work on further. I think I will do a

I can't see the point of the little "live cd" label. I store mostly
alternate CDs or 2-in-1 DVDs, so that label is simply not true for me. And
its location also seems unnatural to me.

Looks good, I like the color scheme going on. I am a new user to Ubuntu and
I like your overall design. You should add a texture to the background to
give it a real pop. Try using a color other than orange that will contrast
with your background color, with a low opacity.

- Setting ubuntu in bold is much more effective to me, and it looks
totally contrary from what you said, much more polisfed and

Yeah, after lining the two up, the orange adds a nice definition.
The only thing I would change is the text (get involved, explore and install,
etc.). Something about the way it's layed out feels a bit off. I think the two
