Some members of our community have given our new mascot a name; Felicity. And here she is.
Fresh from the Canonical design team is a collection of Focal Fossa wallpapers in a variety of resolutions, coloured and greyscale, plus mascot SVGs. I look forward to seeing what the Ubuntu flavour teams and community are able to create using these art assets
You don’t happen to have the (purple/orange) background separately? That way I can make a more subtle version of this a) without the dotted lines) and b) the kitty a bit more in the bottom right corner. That to make it a tad more stylish (and less in your face). Love the general idea though
I liked the old style wallpapers a lot more. Those that just hinted at possibly resembling an animal instead of sketching it out. Or those without an “object” at all.
The “new” ones lack the former craftsmanship in my opinion. But tastes differ, maybe I am just alone.
Generally, I kind of like the aesthetic of those angular, geometric animals on purple background. Brand recognition is certainly good with those (“that purple OS with the animals”).
However:
This one’s a bit “in your face”, i.e. not subtle enough
The laser beams do not do anything for me. They seem like an afterthought. My girlfriend hates them decidedly
The orientation of the fossa doesn’t mesh well with its positioning on the wallpaper. I’m in @chanath’s camp with the fossa in the lower right corner
So, for me, I would like the mascot to be there, but a bit less prominent. After all, all cats like to lurk in the dark. Therefore, a bit more subtle Focal Fossa. Still focused, still geometric, but IMHO not only better fitting, but also a lot more interesting.
The merge proposals that add the new mascot and wallpapers to Ubuntu Focal Fossa, which will become 20.04 LTS in April, have been submitted
