Maybe one of should drop Michael Acevedo a note, see if he already has a
source file handy - xcf, svg.
If not - I don't know of a svg (or any vector based) file for the bug
part of the image - I know how to recreate one properly from the 256px
png image and would be more then willing to do that, and recreate a
likeness of the orb logo design all vector based and a jpg from that.
I could likely have that here pretty quickly - it would be polite though
to email Michael first however, I suppose.
so - added him on CC to the mail here
Howdy Michael,
Good instincts on your proposal.. wondering if you have any source type
fies for the jpg file posted t the wiki?

OK, maybe I was a bit confusing, and I hope this elaboration helps.
What I think would be ideal is for someone to take the "cropped" image I
did that is in svn at--
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ooo/ooo-site/trunk/content/images/AOO_logos/AOO_orb1_cropped.jpg
this is now 217 x 79
re-size it "up" to 275 x 100
with clear lettering instead of the blurring that happens
I have just about NO talent with graphics editing at all.
So thanks for any help with this.
I also copied Michael...

Folks --
The new logo is rendered on the staging web site right now--
http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/
It will not go into the production site, www.openoffice.org until
someone does a "publish" which I have not yet done. I'm not happy with
the size or positioning of the new logo.
I rendered an alternate version of it -- cropped -- in
http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/images/AOO_logos/AOO_orb1_cropped.jpg
This actually looks pretty good *except* the image itself is 217 x 79,
and somehow the web site wants to render it at 275 x 100, which
positioning wise is SUPER, but then the lettering is quite blurry.
screen capture of what happened is at:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Web+Site+with+Proposed+Logos
So, I would LOVE for some creative person out there to take
http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/images/AOO_logos/AOO_orb1_cropped.jpg
(cropped version is in svn also)
change it's size to 275 x 100 and make the lettering better.
On the other hand, if you love the staging rendering, I'll go ahead and
publish it.
