May I suggest a couple of things: 1. move the circle of friends to after ubuntu, rather than UK 2. this will let you drop the hyphen, which is extremely heavy visually 3. use a very thin typeface for UK, rather than bold - will look much more professional If you prefer not to make these changes, at least consider replacing hyphen with a dot, and not in bold, but in normal ubuntu weight. -- Regards, Dave -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
