I suggest to get
CSSU
into the colored bar at bottom, left to the "TESTING" / "STABLE". Large capital letters same size as "TESTING", very tiny rest of text *)
Get a neutral one (I.E. without either of testing/stable) for general advertising. (first of the 3 below)
Have some semi-descriptive advertisement mambojambo text where now there are the one or two lines "
COMMUNITY SEAMLESS SOFTWARE UPDATE
". Dunno how good my PR speak is today, so maybe you find something less silly for that text.
[edit] *) rationale: the term
'community seamless software update'
is obsolete iirc as Nokia doesn't even use the term SSU anymore. It's also not descriptive to Joe Average User, for sure not alluring, and especially it's WAAAY too long to serve as an eyecatcher and to keep users from messing it up and e.g. just calling it e.g. SSU or "the update" which clearly is something different.
CSSU
on the other hand is an established ETLA and "trademark", and writing it full length doesn't earn us much when we do it in large letters. A [SIZE="1"
]tiny text to explain
[/SIZE] shall suffice, and serve quite nice to emphasize the term
CSSU
, thus giving us benefit of easy identification and in turn public association of the icon to
CSSU
. First 4 hits on google for
CSSU
are in fact 'ours' - then comes [#4]Christadelphian Sunday School Union (whatever Christadelphian might be), and [#6]Computer Science Student Union :-D, all the rest on first 10 are again N900 related. So we *need* to emphasize >>
CSSU
<<
