Very Smart!
So here is a draft text for starting a new thread:
" Subject: Proposal for new variants of the Boost logo.
There are many projects springing up, often with smart documentation using the Boost Logo,
and there are many more products, for sale and for free, that use Boost libraries.
Many are concerned at the 'Dilution of the Brand Identity': so we propose two new logos:
Why two instead of three? What happened to "PROPOSED FOR"?
1 For projects that use Boost and would like to acknowledge this - with thanks
(in addition to the 'Using Boost' listing on the website)
"Powered by" - logo for all projects *using* Boost.
2 For projects that are written with Boost 'in mind', perhaps for submission, but are *not yet reviewed and accepted*
"For use with" - logo for projects having some association with Boost, but are *not 'official'*.
(Many like red text to signal that this is NOT (yet) a Boost approved library).

It's Horgan please, just like Morgan only H not M, Irish not English.
(These will be available in bitmap, png and svg formats ready to be used in html and pdf docs). "
OK to start a new thread?
Paul
PS Exactly where they go and size can be decided later?
SVG are best for pdf generation (and are embedded into the pdf of course).
PNG are best for html (because IE doesn't support svg - shame!). html need to copy the pngs from Boost site so that docs can be zipped self contained.

I've trimmed the samples down to the three mentioned, and have examples of the powered by at 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 pixel width.
