From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is probably the worst way to let the community create a logo. I don't understand why don't just have a normal competition where people send in images?
what do you mean
Nothing organized, its a mess, no rules, everyone does what they want, no real project files to work on in a professional way. Why not let people create images and send them individually? Makes much more sense for a logo design.
I'm doing this with three other people. I just shared it here if anyone wants to help. That's all. I was part of the German organization the entire time. This is just some own lil project.
I wasn't criticizing the project itself, but this kind of project. I have seen this multiple times (with other logo creation for canvas) and don't get the usefulness of it for creating a logo. And I thought this was an official Logo contest and may have missed the point. If this is just a fun project, then my critique does not apply and I apology in that case.
They're just drawing the official Fedora logo on the fediverse canvas event... not making a new one.
Looks like I was just yelling at clouds.^^ Maybe I really get old...
