Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD Logo

by Efrain

the font used makes it look more like software so I say it is cool. But what the logo needs is probably sonething that relates to software, so that the logo alone with no text can be identifyable. again it migh be just adding onto the sun and horizon. this is taking the idea from the document freedom day taaht uses a logo that has elements that reflect the _document_ part.

For a branding logo "Software Freedom Day" and "www.softwarefreedom.org" should be more important and larger. The actual date each year is of lesser importance and could be displayed below the logo or not at all. The logo should concentrate on the sun, the hill, "Software Freedom Day" and "www.softwarefreedom.org". This logo, either coloured or black and white, could be used below signature blocks on emails and letters. The black and white logo would stand out when printed on monotone laser printers and could be used with coloured paper, which would reduce printing costs.

Hi Thilo, Please check out the new logo experiments I've done here: http://softwarefreedomday.org/Artwork/2009/Logo About learning inkscape, there are dedicated video tutorial sites for that but I haven't really followed one. That's why I'm not claiming to have expertise yet on using Inkscape or The GIMP. Next time, I'll try to update the Downloads and Resources page to include links to these video tutorial sites on The GIMP and Inkscape.

Re: [SFD-discuss] Help needed: Artwork for SFD '09 team starter pack (schwag); Do we need to change the SFD logo font?

by jmC8

Hi all, I have recently updated the 2009 logo page<http://softwarefreedomday.org/Artwork/2009/Logo>with a couple of new logo image experiments. All of which are re-"creations" of SFD legacy artwork used back in 2004 and 2005.
