Based on the input, here's another draft: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mediawiki_logo_reworked_2.svg The shadows are gone (as well as the black outline of the petals) and the whole thing more simplified to better fit the "basic shapes look" of the other logos. I tried a version with red petals (as red is the only realistic color out of red, blue & green) but I'm not a huge fan of it. It would as well mean giving up the tournesol aspect (as there are no red tournesols) The red version is here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mediawiki_logo_reworked_2-red.svg Leo _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
