> Hey all,
> Randy Reddig (who designed the current OpenID logo) has done some work
> to update it to "v3".  This version keeps the same general look and
> feel of the logo, though makes some updates to make it more
> recognizable especially at smaller sizes.  You can read his blog post
> at http://www.ydnar.com/2008/01/third-go-around.html to learn more
> about his thoughts and the changes.  From a bulleted list perspective,
> the changes are:
>   - Added gap around ascender for small and single-color reproduction.
>   - Gap increases in size when shape is scaled down.
>   - Stem: Increased ascender height; reduced isometric perspective.
>   - Arrow: Rotated, reshaped, non-square.
>   - Type: Increased letter-spacing; Helvetica Neue Regular (vs Light).
>   - Color: Darker gray for curve/arrow; Pantone DS 32-1 C for stem;
> black for type
> 
> You can take a look at it at:

> I'm certainly excited, thanks Randy!  Anyone vehemently disagree with
> updating the logo to this new version?
