Hello,
this is my contribution to open community (LINK):

LOGO/TYPE

If you find it interesting, use it ...

Best regards

Welcome to LQ, hope you like it here, and thanks for your contribution.

I don't like the font itself (no idea how to describe it except, with all due respect, "not adding anything"), I would definitely get rid of the capital "g" (adds nothing plus it'll fill as nearly a dot when scaled down), I think the cutout itself (http://tovic.eu/design/logo/gnu-linu...ux_logo_10.png) is a nice idea (except for me it looks too detailed), and I like the placement in http://tovic.eu/design/logo/gnu-linu...ux_logo_06.png better than in http://tovic.eu/design/logo/gnu-linu...ux_logo_05.png. Obviously I'm not a designer, let alone a typographer, so that's just my uninformed strictly amateur opinion which you can therefore safely dismiss.

Well, I can understand it

It should hapen

Logo and logotype can be used separately and placed wherever you wish (it is public work)

Well, you are right, simplicity is top priority for logo design - but it is hard to get



I've had two reasons for creating LOGO for linux - gnu/linux... I had to made Linux sticker for keyboard button (instead Windows logo and Apple logo) and I realize that Tux (mascot not logo) is too unreadable when resized to small dimensions. Then I start to read about linux hystory and found "GNU/Linux naming controversy"... It bacame my second reason - to make logo that will satisfy both sides...

I know that this not change use of Tux but when I make sketch of this idea I could not resisted the need to put this logo to the public...

...and right you are to try. I'm sure when I order a gift keyboard I'll use the webbed feet :-]
