Less is More concept of the maemo.org logo. By adapting the letter "a" into the "e" we are suggesting the versatility and adaptiveness of the maemo platform

I did that with free font and a lot of fun ! :p

NB: Most of then can be colored differently.

J'ai fait cela avec des fonts gratuits et beaucoup de plaisir ! ;)

NB:la couleur de la majorité de mes logos peut être modifié.

PS: im a frenchspeaker, sory for the inconveniant!

Some thoughts behind the design posted at Internet Tablet Talk. The "M" in the first logo, the "g" in the latter can be tweaked to satisfy everyone. Enjoy! Roger

Variations on a theme, using different fonts. The "ae" in "maemo" seems to stand out, so I wanted to incorporate that into the design. I also wanted to incorporate something about what the platform is, hence the globe and wifi signal bars. These logos can be used with the full "maemo.org" spelled out, or just the globe and "ae" portion for when something narrower is needed. In the variations you can see what the logo looks like in monochrome, and how it looks as a 16x16 favicon. This logo uses only four colors (blue, green, orange, and black) with no gradients or dithering, which makes it easy to silk-screen onto a t-shirt.

Helvetica is used on all logos, my favorite font. All logos use orange-red as the background but can be anything. I hope you enjoy them. --Reggie 13:45, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello. I had some troubles with "Maemo.org" name so I used "Maemo-org" instead. Sorry for that. Logo symbolizes I think all of the community aspects. A not childish but not too old (as our community is) human (as a main part of the community) spread his hands to all the people (we are welcome to everyone) and same time he breaks the borders and reaches the outer perspectives (same thing that we do in our open source world without any limitations) By the way "open source" is nicely integrated here too. His head shines bright with ideas in all ways like the sun. And if you'll place two logos near, people will look like they shaking hands. Logo can be anycoloured, but I prefer blue cause it's very calm for website design :) Whew, I'm done :)

 * Really appreciated. Pruning is a well known method to get better flowers and fruits.--qgil 15:41, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Variations on a Maemo "good vibes" theme...
 * Typography used: "Domestic Manners", a Public Domain/GPL font by Dustismo

Two versions of each image were submitted in case there was an issue using the Nokia stylus in the logo. I substituted a generic stylus into the second image. Hopefully this wont cause any complications. :) *I have the images available without gradients as well, if that becomes an issue.
 * The ideas is cool and personaly I like the little man drawing. However, an issue to consider here is that Maemo-the-software is moving towards thumb/finger use as default, being a stylus a secondary case. In my opinion this concept wouldn't survive the next Maemo releases...--qgil 06:45, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

This is a possible favicon for entries 3, 4, 5, and 6.

The purpose was to emphasize strong and happy colors and humane factors. Bright colors are there to gain more visibility. Fingerprint is driven by the presence of touch, as well as the font face which looks like that it is hand drawn. Tried to remove everything that can be considered "technical".

Maemo.org This name and logo is created keeping in the mind that now maemo can handles more and more complex apllcation and processes, e of maemo articulates that complexity of it and the integrity amoung the cmmunity and developer with fresh illusive look. I hope you will like it.
