Just in case someone feels like experimenting, I also attached the up to date version of my reverse engineered cloudstack monkey with cloud. steroidmonkey is just a bit different from the poweredbycloudstack svg, spot the difference :-) Your feedback is welcome!

I prefer few colors for such pictures - Unfortunately the monkey could not make it, the whole thing needs to fit into a very small area and the monkey would be too little detail (the monkey is =FCbercool anyway) - if no monkey, then cloud - only "powered by cloudstack", no extra text because it make make difficult to read in such a small place - see attached file :) Hi, I like the cloud idea/placement. (And totally get that it's going to be hard to see the monkey in such a small space. Even though he's so cute.) Two things - 1) The lettering in the word "cloudstack" looks stretched as compared with the normal look of the font - I'm not sure if that's intentional, not intentional, something really weird in how it's rendering on my screen... :) 2) I realize the problem around "no extra text" but ... do we want to add in the word apache? (or conversely, is there any reason why it shouldn't be added in... legal, etc)? -robyn On Fri, Nov 15, 2013 at 6:56 PM, David Nalley > wrote: Hi folks: If you happen to have some graphical design talent (I have none) I have a great opportunity for you :) CloudStack needs a 'powered by' logo that is easy to consume, and is also attractive.
