= phenomenon = Hi I'm Fale an Italian Packager and Ambassador,
In the last few months, robyduck stepped off it's role of being in charge of the Italian community (reachable using it's url fedoraonline.it or the it.fedoracommunity.org one). I succeeded Robert in this task.
= reason = Since the website graphics is pretty old style, I'm working on give to the website a new look (as well as doing some technical improvement) and in the process I noticed that the current logo seems to be not 100% compliant with the guidelines (maybe it was when it was created, or maybe I misunderstood the logo guidelines), so I think it could be a good occasion to check if it's ok or if a new one has to be created.
= recommendation = The new website look has already lost the white bar near the logo (is now plain Fedora blue) and white/yellow "window" with the penguin inside. I was looking for a transparent-based png/svg with a text similar to the current one (probably with different fonts/alignments to be compliant with the logo regulation).
Thanks a lot, fale
we have nobody with free time to work on this now, so it will take some time
If there's no hurry for this, then maybe I can help sometime during the next few weeks.
Hi,
There is no hurry on this. We are still working on the new website design and, even if we would end it before the logo is ready, we can start to ship it with the old logo.
Thanks a lot, Fale :)

I had some spare time on a plane, so I was just tinkering with a random leaning tower design to sharpen my illustration skills. It's WIP, if anyone thinks it could be useful in any way and would like to use it, feel free to. I have attached the svg, sorry about the .sketch upload!
I woul like to help to you if it is still needed! However I do not get the clear understanding of your exact needs. Your very last sentence in recommendations indicates that you need a guidlines compoilant fedora logo and text and the line "il portale italiano..." to superimpose over the rest so with transparent background. Am I right?
Karoly
@sarupbanskota: I'm not sure a leaning tower would be an appropriate symbol for Fedora IT comunity.
@oskar: Pretty much yes. As you said it should be compliant with Fedora guidelines, with transparent background (in the end it will be over a fedora blue area) and should contain:
Thanks a lot, Fale
Well fine! I will create a set of designs and will let you know as soon as it is ready. Shall I mark myself as the owner of the tread?
Best, Karoly
Thanks oskar :)
Heya,
Today I had some time so I created the initial design what I was thinding about. Please let me know your opinion and if I did understan correctly what you neant. This banner for the websiote header part is compilantwith fedora guidelines and I tried to address the purpose of your website too. I try to attach a picture to the ticket called banner1.png
Best regards,
Suggested design version1 by oskar(Karoly) banner1-01.png
Hello,
I created 3 new versions. I asked the help of the design tema to evaluate if the designs are copliant to the guides, however no feedback until now. Please let me have your feedback to finalize the task.
3 additional banner designs for ticket #414 designs-01.png
Thanks oskar,
I like your designs :), and I think we should use the "online" word instead of "Italia" since the website url is fedoraonline.it. Would that be possible? Also, can we please capitalize the first "i" of "il portale..."?
As far as the design, I really liked the numbers 1 and 2 (of designs-01.png) :)
Thanks a lot, Fabio
Okay, we can work on that. You can contact me private, To make it quicker editing and implementing.
I ll work on your suggestions meanwhile. and compete design 1 and 2 more or less for z9our project needs.
If zou have specific colors in RGB pleas provide me so I can make the belend to zour background perfectly, and also if you have a specific size to fit the banner in pleas let me know that as well. At the moment the banners are 960x120 standard web banner sized.

Hey Fale,
I attached 4 new files to the ticket. There are the first 2 designs I made earlier incorporating your suggestions (swap the word 'italia' with 'online' and starting the 'il portale ...' with capitals 'Il protale...') and also I revisited the logo guidlens and made some changes in the color. Unfortunately on the mailing list nobody replied for my question so I hope that I understaqnd the guidelines correctly. Anyways, if needed I can modify the files further. The second 2 files are referring to your original request where you suggested the very same desing as persent containing only the text and logo with transparent background, wher the logo is compilant with the guidelines. I made two versions for dark and light background and the ration of the images are identical to the present banner ratios found at it.fedoracommunity.org header section. Please let me know if any of these would fit your needs or if you need some further modifications or naything. best regards,
Thanks oskar.
I was looking the two "original_cmplnt_" and from my understanding of the Fedora policies, both are not ok. in fact the drk one has the "fedora" word written in blue (which is not ok, since it goes on top of a Fedora blue background) while the invrtd has the Fedora logo with the color altered (which is still against the rules, as far as I understood them). I think to be rule compliant, it would be enough to start from the invrtd version and put on the "original" Fedora logo.
I hope someone with more experience on those guidelines steps in to confirm (or correct) my comments.
Best regards, Fabio
PS: Speaking with a member of the Italian community he pointed out that in Italian it would sound better "Il portale italiano degli utenti Fedora" instead of "Il portale italiano degli utenti di Fedora" (the "di" in Italian is like the English "of" and can and often should be omitted). Thanks a lot :)
@oskar, please incorporate text edits and reupload files :) thanks!
It doesn't look like this one is completed yet and we haven't heard from oskar in > 4 weeks so policy dictates we reopen this up for another designer to take. Opening it up.
Added my proposal here:
Let me know if I need to adjust anything.

Hello :)
Thanks a lot for those images, are awesome :).
Can those images can be used directly or we got to ask legal before using them?
@elioqoshi, please review this comment and remove the "di" from your design. Thanks :)

Sorry, I somehow missed the notification of this. I need duffy's input here as I'm not sure that the logo is okay according to the guidelines and if we have a certain flexibility here

no these aren't okay, you can't write fedora in that font like that..... you have to use the fedora logotype if it's going to be used in a logo. :(
Exactly, that's what I was thinking as well. The request is not compatible with our templates as well. Can't it be Fedora Italia instead?
Sadly not :(.
We are the owners of the fedoraonline.it domain since 2005 and that's the name that everyone knows
What do you suggest duffy?
Any news on this?
Hi fale, sorry for the delay, we missed this in our last triage. We'll do a custom logo that looks Fedora-ish but doesn't match the template because of the unique naming situation of your community.
Thanks duffy :)
Sorry for my absence, lots going on.
What did we decide for this?
I'm taking this one and will work on it today. Taking it because it's a weird edge case and I'm super familiar with the guidelines.
Current logo:

@fale Here is a quick mockup - what do you think? If you like it I can package up the logo files for you.

Thanks duffy :). Very nice!
Would it be possible to have it with transparent background? I think that in few months the site will have a graphical update and the logo will go on white background. The only problem that could happen is with the white of the flag, I think.
@fale absolutely! Here you go:
