Hi All,
I want to ask you guys to hold up for just a day or two, ill put up a
website with all the logo's discussed in the mailinglist + some extra's.
That way everybody can give their preference and Herbert can make a final
descision.
I do disagree with Matt though, i think logo design is imperitize for the
growth of VServer as a trademark. VServer is growing at a very fast rate, we
want VServer to be recognized instantly and be though well of. Maybe not for
the community, but for every discision maker and system admin image counts.
Anyway, 2 more days. Ill make sure we have a summary of all the images
involved. Both .png and vector.
