The designs of the Four Foundations (not 4-Fs please!) have an emblem and text in each "leaf." At the size appearing in the site headers, those two elements would probably be very difficult to distinguish properly. I do think there are other places we could be promoting the Four Foundations, but the official Fedora logo is still what it always has been -- and wow, is it getting increasingly meaningful! -- and that's the strongest way to brand our web sites overall. Gerold Kassube had -- and Max presented -- a superb idea about how to use the Four Foundations for a rotating set of information supporting each theme on a regular basis. This could be integrated very easily with a content site like the upcoming Zikula or other rotational system. -- Paul W.
