Just a thought. Why do we actually need an svg logo and who will it benefit?
Does HTML, XML, Javascript....(I could go on) have a logo, so why does SVG have to, I dont see the point apart from something to do. Just my opinion but I'm not sure where this is going, maybe someone will print a 10ft poster at the SVG Open 2007 (if it ever happens) and the 20 or so people that turn up can stare at it and smile. Are you trying to create a brand? Are you intending to sell t-shirts and jackets? On another point, maybe no one noticed but IE7 add ons library removed the SVG download a few weeks ago and when I emailed IE addons they put it back in albeit the version 3 download. I received an email from the IE team yesterday. The updated product is now live, and should show up on the site tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback! IEAddOns.com Sorry I didnt submit my SVG logo but I felt having the SVG in the IE addons for the little time it has left more important and useful.
