Bug Description

While the little Ubuntu 'wheel of people holding hands' spins in the clouds every third of a rotation the whole thing wobbles to the left about a pixel or so.

While this isn't a grave concern in terms of functionality, ensuring the graphics animate smoothly adds to the polish of the software.

The problem looks like it is caused by aligning the rotated image on the left. Every time the gap between the points in the ubuntu logo comes by, a shift to the left can be seen. It moves back when the dot comes by an seems to push the logo back to the right again.

Currently I'm experiencing this bug with:
Linux 2.6.31-5-generic #24-Ubuntu SMP Sat Aug 1 12:47:58 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
