In conjunction with requests to update Puppy's web presence, one of the issues to be addressed was a new logo - with Barry's consent, of course.

I took the initiative and asked a graphic artist named Tim Dunn to design us a logo (for free). Here is Tim's response. I have the others the same but in a choice of colors. Personally I think it's awesome. What do you guys think?

I will shortly post some possible Puppy wallpapers featuring the new logo, including some mirrored text. Enjoy!

Yes, it definitely looks like a she!
This logo has the advantage of looking very professional.
What are the two dots for at the bottom?

The line on her neck doesnt quite reach the circular edge.

Nice.

The face can benefit from some more depth/3d effect.

OH WOW! WhoDo? This person did a fantabulous job! Very professional indeed! That's a logo that'll look excellent centred ontop of many different types of wallpapers, or shrunk down and placed to the lower-right, etc.

I can't wait to see what comes out of this! Woohoo! Smile

As for name I thought "Fifi" but then realised, "That's more of a poodle's name!"

The more I look at the picture though, despite being somewhat colourblind, I'd say she has a sort of "ginger-colour", right?

So how about "Ginger"?

Okie, y'all can laugh now! Laughing

Amicalement,

" Why not "Eve"? "

Always interesting that if you type up - Barry Kauler - for
an internet search, that EVE Embedded VectorEditor comes up first from

http://www.goosee.com/

so why not use the name Eve as recognition for this previous software gem.

"Eve" is good.. Razz

But how about - "Trix" ..

- I think highlights Puppy's new 'tricks' she brings out each litter (version..!! sic..) [ a take on the ABC prog 'New Tricks'.. he.he.he.. ] Rolling Eyes

Maybe we should have a competition for a name - the winner getting a 'free' copy of "Unleashed CD" for the version that finally gets this logo..- just a suggestion.. Wink

Also I'd suggest that the 'name' be placed onto a 2nd (similar shape, color, etc..) tag next to the one with Puppy on it .. Idea

This is looking awesome..

Keep up the good ideas WhoDo..

Excuse me, but I have a different point of view Rolling Eyes

It's simple: They doesn't looks like a puppy(both), it looks like an older one Confused

And, have you seen this? it looks more like Vincent(the new real puppy)
