Hi,
Yes, for OSGeo-Live, we are asking for logos as 125x125 pixels with 
transparent background, but I suggest that you should provide multiple 
standard sizes of the logo, including an SVG vector version which can be 
scaled later.

I can't find a good authoritative source for icon/logo sizes, but this 
is probably as good as any:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Icon_Image_format
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICO_%28file_format%29

There suggest image sizes of: 16 × 16, 32 × 32, 48 × 48, 128 × 128, 256 
× 256, 512 × 512, and 1024 × 1024 pixels

If you can find a better source, I'd like to know.

Warm regards, Cameron

> Colleagues, we now have our "Geo for All" logo based on the maximum no. of votes. From the results GEO4All_3 logo is the clear winner with maximum votes. I thank everyone who contributed the logos. In fact, we didnt plan to have a logo competition but thanks to the community who started sending logos we decided to have a competition to find the winning logo. It was also a great opportunity to see the enthusiam of the community and i thank each and everyone who contributed the logos. For me all the logos are winners. I also thank Massimo Di Stefano for setting up the voting system to help us find the most popular logo.

> As you all know "Geo for All" http://www.geoforall.org  started from very humble beginnings but the idea expanded rapidly beyond any of our expectations thanks to the amazing support of our academic colleagues worldwide who all joined forces in our  mission for making geospatial education and opportunities accessible to all.

> * Establish Open Geospatial Science as a discipline (academic journals, journal special issues , conferences proceedings etc)
> * Enable Openness in Geospatial Education (University programs, MOOCs , summer schools, training programs etc)
> * Establish Open Source Geospatial Labs in universities worldwide to build firm foundations and expand the discipline

> So it is now time for us to have a logo which encapsulates our mission, vision and what we all stand for .

> So thank you to all colleagues who send some amazing logos for us to choose and to Massimo Di Stefano for setting up the voting system to help us find the most popular logo, before 20th May 2015 .Each each person has  3 votes to use as they choose amongst their top choices, with stronger preferences getting more of their allotment .
