It's not going to be in the GNOME Boxes page, but in the GNOME Boxes usage.
Here is basically how CentOS is displayed Today:
- https://fidencio.fedorapeople.org/centos/boxes_master.png

And these are the screenshots of what we would like to have:

It's just going to be used by GNOME Boxes application, which can be run
inside a GNOME (or any other Desktop Environment) session. Hopefully the
links provided above are enough to show what we want to have.

Also, would be really nice if we could either have an authorization to use
the logo in the following format:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-boxes-logos/blob/master/README ... or
have the provided logo under
https://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Brand/Logo#head-68f8a695d8fea47d6705a7b7010f54641b2f1892
(which makes clear enough that we're authorized to use it).

Thanks a lot for having this thread moving!
