Hell Fed, Thanks for the suggestions. Even I am not a designer and all I could do is to source the images and make that logo. I shall try to add colours. I hope that someone would design a apt logo for FOSS in Agriculture. FOSS4AG.

Dear Sridhar,

Thanks for asking our opinion. I think a bit of (green/yellow?) color in the logo would be nice and somewhat relate more to agriculture. The concept of a GNU in a field of something is an excellent one and you may want to use the whole GNU even, rather than just its head. Not being a designer per se, I'm not sure how you can do that and have people not familiar with GNU understand it's the FSF Gnu and not a simple cow... ;-) but since they probably don't know the FSF Gnu it maybe doesn't matter.

Dear All,

I am attaching a logo which I have made sourcing from web for the theme 'FOSS in Agriculture'. I wish to know whether the logo gives correct meaning?? Comment please.

Thanks&  Regards Sridhar

I know that it can be very difficult to have the agrement of the whole list so I join my contribution (PNG and I have the SVG available too) and, as Sridhar, am opened to any amendment you should add to be of help :-)

My suggestion would be 1. Take a nice photo of a harvest time field at ~dawn. 2. Impose GNU on the Sun with some transparency of the layer. 3. Enhance suitably With GIMP many kinds of automatic logos can also be made. Best A. Mani -- A. Mani CU, ASL, CLC,  AMS, CMS http://www.logicamani.co.cc
