Note that launchpad uses a 16x16 pixel logo so scalability is important.

#1 but with the 3 elements of the kangaroo using the ubuntu colours. The launchpad logo could be the kangaroo by itself. |

Discussion
#1 is based on the "Australian Made" trademark so there may be copyright issues. -- DavidSymons
I'd suggest creating something that reflects the Ubuntu logo, but doesn't actually use the Ubuntu logo itself. See the Trademark Policy. Good ways of doing this include using the tell-tale dots, the Ubuntu colours, etc. Perhaps we could make a Southern Cross with Ubuntu-style coloured dots? That might have a bit of a dot-painting feel about it too.
How about a Eureka flag/cross with a bit of Ubuntu influence? -- JeffWaugh If the Ubuntu logo does get used, replace the dots with faces, perhap an indigenous face, an Asian face and a European face? -- Craige McWhirter
I quite like the dot painting Australia, # 6. It also looks good and is still recognisable at a small size, while a lot of the others, eg stars on ubuntu logo, are not immediately recognisable at 16x16. -- MatthewVermeulen
I too am a fan of the dot painting, perhaps reversing the colours so the darker colours are on the outside may make it more visible on a white background when smaller. -- NaamanCampbell
9-12 are obviously based on the erueka flag - svgs are available if needed -- AndrewEdwards
I rather like the boomerang idea used in #8, though the dot artwork ones (#6 and #7) also look appealing. My vote would be for #8 though.
-- PascalKlein I like 8 and 9, even though i had to edit the page to find it
KarlGoetz #8 is definitely the standout option here. It is clearly Australian yet still bears a close resemblance to the original Ubuntu logo. -- SridharDhanapalan
