Logo for Copr

[Klára Šimíčková]

Hello,
I've tried to design a logo for the Copr project.
Since Copr sounds in Czech like "kopr" (dill), I've tried to use this in
logo, therefore I've used dill seed instead of "O".
I hope you will like it.

Have a nice day
Klara

My thoughts:
* I like the dill seed used instead of "o".
* the used font does not match with other Fedora types. Placing Fedora logo and Copr logo side by side would look ugly.
E.g. See left top angle of https://copr-fe.cloud.fedoraproject.org/coprs/
* I would suggest to use MgOpen Font or something similar. See:
  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo#What_font_is_used_in_the_logotype.3F
  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo#FUDCon_Logo
* I dislike that white middle part inside characters.
* The dark brown part of seed looks weird when downscaled. The details are lost. So it may be worth to produce one more
simplified image for smaller resolutions (probably with only 3 dark brown arcs).

Just my $0.02

Thank you very much for your thoughts. I've changed the font and simplified
the dill seed and I think it matches the Fedora types much better. So what
do you think about this one?

This one is much better!
Can we use it?

Which font is used?
Hmm when I open the SVG version in inkscape the image is little bit
demaged. See attachment with screenshot.

I'm really glad you like it. Of course you can use it. The used font is
called Comfortaa [http://aajohan.deviantart.com/art/Comfortaa-font-105395949]
and it's under the SIL Open Font License. I've also attached the fixed
version of the .svg file. I've converted the font to the curves so it
should be fine now.

Great work, thank you very much! I can't believe we finally have a logo :-)

Hi Klára, you should send your design along to the Fedora design team and ask
for their feedback.  They can help fit your design into the other Fedora design
guidelines where applicable.

https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/

(maybe file a ticket and post your image asking for feedback)
