[FOSS4G2016] Sharing marketing materials

[Anton Popov]

Hi Gert-Jan,

could you create a sketch or something? I'm still not sure what you
mean. I don't see a halo =)
There is a gradient from transparent to white in the wide banners, there
are small (transparent) gaps between the letters (see the original logo
[1]), and there is the grayish river that "separates" the 2S's, the "4"
and the "G".
The transparent versions (e.g. [2]) just have the original logo and the
slogan on it.

Sorry for the inconvenience =/
Anton
