Logos

Wikisauga needs two logos. The first is the front page welcome logo. The second is the logo that goes on print and into the header's background. The second logo must look good when printed in color or black and white. The first logo that only goes on the front page can be anything you fancy. But, do follow these guidelines:

Upload your own logo to this page and show off your creativity. Just add a new heading, and post it here in gif, jpeg, or png format. Also, upload as a file the vectorized equivalent (such as svg). See Help with Images to learn how. Here are some general guidelines for a Wikisauga logo:

• The logo should work with many color schemes.
  

• It should represent something great about Mississauga or wikis.
  

• Make it as abstract or literal as you wish.
  

• Avoid certain combinations of colors that some people cannot differentiate between (such as red and green).
  

• Logos must be licensed under the Creative Commons-By license, so that
  

• you may modify any logo posted here (but you must give credit if the author requires it).
  

• Use a vector file format such as .svg — check out Inkscape for a great vector graphics studio!
  

• The logo for print must look good at any size and must print well for flyers, leaflets, posters, etc. That means it should look reasonable if printed as gray scale or black and white.

The W is represented by the Absolute Towers, nicknamed the “Marilyn Monroe” towers, currently under construction at Hurontario and Burnhamthorpe.

• Winter logo?

2008-12-26 10:55:28   I updated the logo using the WikiSAUGA snow logo. I tried a wide size of 457 pixels, it looked too big. The current logo running on the wiki is 55 pixels high instead and looks acceptable. So how about we stick with it until the January thaw? —HimySyed
