Logo Contest Draft

In 2020, Whonix ™ will have provided advanced anonymity and security to users for more than eight years. To celebrate this milestone we are announcing a contest for designers to create a new, vibrant Whonix ™ logo to give the platform a greater visual impact.

The current Whonix ™ logo ^[archive] and banner ^[archive] are now more than four years old and appear a little tired and dated. The team has brainstormed the basic requirements below but we are asking for the community's creative inspiration to implement a great proposal.

Requirements

Graphical Requirements

• The source must be in Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format.
• The image design should convey some of the concepts fundamental to Whonix ™: secrecy, privacy, anonymity, mystery and simplicity.
• The logo should have a 1:1 ratio. (old logo.) The size can be 500x500 or 1000x1000.
• The landscape graphical creation should have a 3:1 ratio including the logo. (old banner) The size can be 1500x500 or 750x250.
• The Whonix name must be spelled with an uppercase "W" only, and lowercase "honix".
• The logo or banner should be suitable for printing. The intent is to produce attractive stickers that can be placed on computers as well as stylish t-shirts that people are proud to wear.
• Images should have no resemblance to occult symbols.

Legal Requirements

• The Tor, Debian or other related logos cannot be used for trademark/legal reasons.
• All images rights will be surrendered to the Whonix ™ project (ENCRYPTED SUPPORT LP) see Imprint / Privacy Policy / Cookie Policy / Terms of Service / E-Sign Consent / DMCA / Copyrights / Trademark Policy.
• The logo may be used for Whonix ™ official branding/trademark.
• Make sure the fonts in use are compatible with GPL3+.
• This is a voluntary contribution without any financial remuneration.
• All proposals can be discussed in public.
• Since a number of contributors might submit design ideas, there is no guarantee your design will be chosen.

Complementary Materials

As the logo and banner will be used in various places, contributors are encouraged to submit complementary materials. This is not a strict requirement, but it assists in evaluating proposals. Further, if your logo is chosen, we will require these materials before the logo and banner are publicly used.

The complementary materials are:

• Necessary fonts to create other material matching the logo.

Calendar

• Post in forum thread TODO or e-mail adrelanos@riseup.net
  • 31 December 2020: Deadline for sending proposals.
  • 31 January 2021: The winner is announced.
