Ignore my previous claim please. After more fiddling I still can't get the SVG logo(s) to display correctly. It will only display correctly in Adobe products. I've tried Inkscape, Karbon14, Opera 9, and Firefox 1.5... I even opened up the original Adobe Illustrator file in Illustrator CS2 and re-exported it to SVG. no dice! zero! nill! nothing! I even played with all the Illustrator SVG export settings. We have a decision to make. Do we keep the bad logo(s) in the SVG file or pitch them? If we can't view or use the logos on FreeBSD or Linux why do we keep them only people with Adobe + Windows or Mac can see them. Here's what I think we should do: 1. Slice and dice the master logo-basic.ai file so that each logo has it's own discrete file. 2. Each logo file will then be download-able in different file formats: .AI, .EPS, .SVG, .TIF, and/or anything else you can think of. 3. Redesign the logo.html page to accommodate all the new files. I have Adobe Illustrator CS2, Photoshop CS2, etc. and I'm willing to do this for the group, but only if I get some kind of official nod. I don't want to waste my time doing all of this work and not have them put on the website. -- BSD Podcasts @: http://bsdtalk.blogspot.com/ http://freebsdforall.blogspot.com/ ___ freebsd-advocacy@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-advocacy To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I'm using Opera 9.01 on Windows XP and it does not render well. I can see weird colors in the logo, a mix of yellow, orange and red and black.
