Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Mascot-Logo for LibreOffice/TDF
I took the image and made the larger one with the text an 800 pixel wide image. http://libreoffice-na.us/mascoteLibOLF--edited-1a.png It is not as sharp as it should be, since I had to blow up the original one and "smooth" out the edges of the image. But it is large enough to see how it might look. If you find the original image file - Inkscape .svg would be nice - then it would be easier to make a larger image to use. .

No, definitely not. If it needs text, it doesn't qualify as a mascot. A mascot must work without words. (and I didn't consider the "Hi! My name is... LIbo" to be part of the proposal - as the color combination samples also don't include it. Of course a mascot can be combined with text, but the text must not be necessary to explain the mascot itself. (and make sure to take pictures once you got it on a shirt :-)) ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
