[Qgis-developer] [Qgis-user] [Qgis-psc] Logo

Tue Apr 16 08:57:50 PDT 2013

I like the http://99designs.com/logo-design/contests/qgis-needs-logo-210397/entries/50 entry, but I would like to see it with the "GIS" slightly smaller so that it is not on the same line as the top of the "Q". This would make the "Q" element of the logo/name more prevalent and would make the "Q" as a standalone icon for the application more identifiable, in my opinion.

Regards,
John

The Q in QGIS obviously lends itself to this, and IMO works well for it; so I think a design that leverages that single character will be more versatile, than say one that only works well for a web site header.
