Another approach could be adding the logo to the default background.

>> Dear Design Team,
>>
>> I've been a user of Fedora 15 for two weeks now and I'm impressed. However
>> I was very much missing any Fedora branding from Gnome shell.
>> So I decided to look into creating Gnome shell extensions and I created a
>> small extension that adds a Fedora logo to the Activities button.
>> The advantage of this extension is that it will work together with any
>> theme, always displaying the glorious Fedora logo. :)
>>
>> I also packaged it. I will submit the package for review tomorrow, but
>> until then the source and the rpm can be found here:
>> http://sources.venemo.net/
>> In order to use it, you will need to:
>> 1. Get the RPM:
>> - Install the fedora-logo-gnome-shell-extension-1.0.0-1.fc15.noarch.rpm
>> package
>> OR if you don't want to install a random rpm from a random guy on the
>> internet, the source tarball is also there:
>> - Get the tarball, and extract the contents to
>> ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/fedoralogo at fedoraproject.org/
>> 2. Reload the shell: press Alt+F2, type r and press enter
>>
>> I would appreciate any feedback about this idea. Eg. does the icon fit
>> well in there, is this the right icon to use, etc.
>>
>> Thanks in advance! :)

>> Regards,
>> Timur Kristóf
