One of the comments was that the red color could be distracting, so here are versions with gray, green and blue instead. I also made the text a bit lighter to increase contrast.

It was difficult, so I made this version with the GNU head on the background. http://sirgazil.bitbucket.org/static/temp/img/guix/2014-11-05-grub-dark-g= nu-blue.png Finally, I made a dark text on light background version, as Andreas suggested. Personally, I'd go with the dark one. http://sirgazil.bitbucket.org/static/temp/img/guix/2014-11-05-grub-light-= blue.png Let me know what you think, --=20 Luis Felipe L=C3=B3pez Acevedo http://sirgazil.bitbucket.org/
