I like that minimalist style rastapax!

That is the KISS (Keep It Sweet & Simple) style I love, like Puppy

good work

Has anyone done this before?

Somebody with Photoshop or Gimp skills could do a lot better job!

I think we should just keep the original Logo, Its simple and easy to remember..

Too many neat ideas. I thought a paw worked on many levels. carried a that hint of gnome footprint, yet original. I think that a paw print in a simple 3d mud splat would be neat.

Have the logo transition with alpha blending to super impose over any color background. use a ripple effect but have it look as though a dog took a step in some colorful paints or muds. (and heck, maybe have an animated one run while booting.)

It would make you want to stick your finger in the paw print to feel it. I bet it would be the first thing anyone seeing puppy for the first time would do.
As for the latest simple rastapax style logos. I think it would be an excellent booting backdrop as well. Even more so than an animmated one. A simple color friendly little puppy face as soon as pup_ro2 mounts and the system is coming on line. It would be great because of the little requirements to display, it would show on even the oldest colorless monitor junker if you had to.

the squares are nice but the order of the words linux and puppy should read correctly. puppy linux, not linux puppy.

If this was the logo, a cool effect might be to have the logo backdraoped with semi transparent words in every thinkable language saying "puppy".

@ Jaybekay

It it alpha blended for transparency over a background.

Nope

For those (unlike me) that are gifted with artistic talent....

We need a good theme for Puppy 5 "Woof"! Suggestions are invited here

Once upon a time (and this is a true story)
We had as a logo a Puppy image taken with a flash.
The Puppy had 'red eye' and looked a little strange - I labeled him 'devil Pup'
As more users came to Puppy we were able to upgrade
Finally arriving at the rastapix images.

As we began to plan and prepare for the 5.x series of Puppy (without Barry)
I envisaged it as a way of celebrating
the diversity of contributing possibilities.
So I called it kennel.
One of our talented graphic artists provided
a great logo - I had difficulty inserting graphics on the wiki page
(the button to add a graphic is not working)
http://puppylinux.org/wiki/development/ ... y-5-kennel

To everyones delight Barry has stepped in [hooray] from semi- retirement
with a clear vision and direction using his Woof build system.
Barry and other developers began to call
Puppy 5 'Woof'
Woof used to be just a component of Kennel
(used like unleashed to build Puppy)

Barry knows what Woof is (Puppy 5)
and the developers know what it means

Puppy 5 is now WOOF


So the wiki page is in transition - somewhere between the former name and Woof.

Around about Beta stage (when I would expect it) more will be known about 5.x, as
Barry will provide a page on his website, help
and intro on his Beta ISO etc

Thanks to jebaJQ8 who created the lost logo

Now we have woof
Any better logo than my effort welcome . . .

Works for me, Lobster.Sometimes simpler is better.

Is there official puppy logo in some bigger resolution or in some scalable format? SVG, EPS ? Like it can be used for printing on t-shirts or similar.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found one here in png and svg too:

That's huge!4.5M!

You could make a good kite!

yep

I vote for this one from http://rhinoweb.us:



Simple, elegant, no unnecessary or overly personalized elements... professional.

err, voting is over long ago Rastapax's logo is used for what we now have as official puppy linux logo
