[OSGeo-Discuss] R: website/rebranding april update

[Vicky Vergara]

I like the sophisticated.
But the green on the name cards etc ... its too much green, maybe more
transparent. I am not saying to have it multicolour because printing
becomes expensive with more colors.
The white www.osgeo.org is behind the black lines, its so wierd.
