You might also want to check what the debian art folks who provide this
image think about this.  Chances are their sense of aesthetics will be much,
much better than mine.

If you all reach a consensus about what looks best, that'll work much better
to convince me than a single opinion.  I don't want to get into a situation in
which every week someone proposes a new combination that looks "better" than
the other... ;-)
