Of all the things wrong with GNOME, their choice of logo is at the bottom of the list.

Their insistence that it be pronounced 'guh-nome' is a worse crime.

GNU as the animal or the initials, okay, sure. Debatable. Gnome is a whole-ass word. That is ridiculous.

Up there with QT insisting their name isn't Q-T. The initials are a word. If you wanted it pronounced Qute you should've called it that.
