The issue is the small size as you say. :) The concern is not of a technical nature. Even SVGs get rendered to pixels or dots in the end - no matter what. I'm just noting that the current logo really under-performs when it comes to scaling, not only at extremely small sizes, but already at reasonably small sizes: you start loosing all details on the map as well as the 1s and 0s at about 64x64 pixels. I would argue that this isn't an acceptable criteria for a proper logo. (There may be exceptions but I see many reasons why OSM would benefit from something that you can print on small devices, postcards, use as favicon or along other logos face to face on webpages and so on.. ) Greetings, Robert _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
