Problem is the symbol does not really attract anyone. We have seen the reactions on fedoraforum.org. I even show it to my family and friend, overall they didn't like it.

Making a set of three or five logo drafts would be a better way to receive a feedback then choose to enhance that draft. ----- Original Message ----- From: fedora-marketing-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx To: fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Fedora-marketing-list Digest, Vol 17, Issue 6 Date: Sun, 6 Nov 2005 12:00:05 -0500 (EST) > > Send Fedora-marketing-list mailing list submissions to > fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > fedora-marketing-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx > > You can reach the person managing the list at > fedora-marketing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxx > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Fedora-marketing-list digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
