I see the brand book I put together with Jeff Waugh way back when (where that vertical version of the logo came from, and the existing logotype) has been unceremoniously deleted or somehow obscured from being able to be viewed on the wiki now. Any time I hit a search term that seems to point to it, I get a redirect to this new logo and trademarks page. If I *could* access it, I would point out that the original brand book where the current logos came from did actually have guidelines to cover more creative use cases including a specific color palette that was authorized. I believe an OPW intern expanded upon this in a brand book project as well, and that work is also pretty much impossible to retrieve from the wiki now. ~m _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
