I have emailed for the approved copy of the Fedora Symbol, specifically describing what I intend to do with it.
The thing I am pretty sure I had done to get that unauthorized version was to Google image search for "fedora logo" which produces a first page showing that version on three sites: www.windows-hq.com has it as a .png file and dcala.wordpress.com/ has the same as a .jpg file in the July 30, 2009 post. The third is musinpice.blogspot.com where it appears in the October 12, 2005 post along side of a substantially forward slanted version that the blogger had drawn himself.

I'll do that (email). I will see if I can retrace my steps about where the other one came from that I grabbed for this mockup. With one more tutorial, I should know enough inkscape to re-do this whole thing as a scalable vector drawing. I will research the precise aspect ratio and field placement of the Chilean Flag too. Thanks for the comments everybody. I am still learning how to swim and appreciate all the help I can get.

Hi Charles,

OK. I understand from my reading of the usage guidelines of the Fedora Logo and symbol that I cannot present the symbol in the manner of the Chilean Flag I made yesterday. This current attached version leaves at least the minimum clear space and adds in the required TM. It is my first thing so I am curious to see what everybody thinks. It is a raster drawing, and so as it currently stands could not be scaled up to be a basis of the poster Mr. Montero will someday need.
Where did you get that copy of the Fedora logo? that is from one of the early mockups of the Fedora logo, but it is not the standard logo we use. You'll note that the lighter blue is much lighter than it should be, and the top right and bottom left ends of the 'f' are longer than they normally are in the official logo.
Can you email logo@fedoraproject.org to get proper copies of the logo to use?
