Re: Your logo font?

I never found out why people like this cross-eyed toy penguin

I think because it resembles how true geeks (humans) look...

I think the logo and font looks nice.. reminds of Arch

Re: Your logo font?

Re: Your logo font?

but i like the font and colours, infact i love the whole arch forum layout and if people visit my forum and realise its like arches they will think of arch and that is a good thing.

Re: Your logo font?

Most of the time, a .diff is a patch. The rest is in man patch.

Re: Your logo font?

I've added the trial version of the Karat normal font to the AUR:

[necrobumping justification]
This thread is the first hit when searching for "Arch Linux logo font" so the above link will hopefully be useful for anyone who actually checks the second page (of course, a mod could always abuse his power to add it to the first page).
