I like the Debian logo best in form, but why use pink?

When it comes to the actual desktop i like Debian best. Ubuntu colors sucks, orange-brown and grey panel, and the icons suck too - very retro.
I wonder why the respective distros, Ubuntu and Debian, doesn’t make more effort to differ themselves to each other.

Thanks for noticing, anonymous. It’s not rigged but has been corrected.

Debian has a bunch of militant extremists who stuffed the ballot box from a single IP in the span of about 5 minutes. They inflated Ubuntu’s ugliness by about 1,000 votes.

We’ve taken corrective measures to assure the validity of the proceedings. The figures are now accurate and we await the next attack from the Debian extremists loyalists.

You Tuxers really should play together better than this.

This poll is rigged. I checked this site from digg about an hour ago and ubuntu had many many more votes than it does now. I call shenanigans.
