Hi Ali,
Thank you. Shall I assume this is your "final" submission?
Yes, this will be the final submission. :)
Personally, I liked your updated font more (I almost commented on it
earlier ... but then, I didn't feel strongly enough, and did not have
a good suggestion to offer either.)
I'm not sure which font you are referring to. I'm ambivalent towards them all so far :P.
(It's not hampering our progress, but ...) I am having trouble
rendering your svg file (I only seem to get the left half of the
graphics (when I tried to open it with with Mozilla-Firefox or
Corel-PaintShopPro) ... is it possible that your attachment is
corrupted? ... see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/file/work/OOR/OOR-Logo/OOR-Logo-finalists/OOR_bw.svg
Hmmm, I'm not sure why the svg is not rendering properly. Perhaps inkscape saves them with extra information that is not rendered properly in browsers? I've tried it and it opens with Adobe's various image editing suites and other image editing programs. That said, the png file should render properly however, no?
Ooooh, I suspect that the "canvas" I was using in the program was small, but the export to png took the entire image area... I'll fix it when I get home this evening.
Best, Ali
Regards. =ppy
