Hi Thilo, Danke! Thanks for that quick response.  I've already seen that list of fonts you mentioned and the only problem was that weren't too many options for modern looking sans serif logo fonts among the font examples from that list.

@All: Please disregard the earlier list of fonts that I mentioned.  It seems that it would take time sort out our way through more than a thousand fonts listed there.  Moreover, I've just found out that not all fonts there are free (as in speech) and open licensed -- others are just freeware that are just freely redistributable.

As an alternative, perhaps it would be better for us to look at the font collection listed at the Open Font Library website.  I've already found a promising one and you may look at at my first output here: http://softwarefreedomday.org/Artwork/2009/Logo

RFC

Cheers!

P.S.
Prior to posting my first output on my SFD '09 logo experiments, as a gauge to whether I'm ready to post that or not, I asked my sister which between the two logos look better: SFD '08 or '09?  Her answer was '09 because it's more eye-catching and that motivated to post this now.   I hope you'll all like it as well. :-)

Good point. I think one should use a free/open font instead. I would
suggest to use a rather new font.

Here is another list:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software_Unicode_fonts

I agree that it might be better to renew it all and also to decide quick
so that there is more time to do stuff. It would also  be a good idea to
renew even if tis would not be a problem. So instead of trying to find
out IF it is a problem, why not  just start?

regards,
Thilo
