I would have thought most people would have gs/gv by now... Alex: Could you make the main FFmpeg text a bit cooler? The old faded red style is a bit... old in my opinion. Maybe have a search around for some more stylish logos for inspiration? :) I like the related text/diagrams around the logo, but maybe they could be 'taken back a bit' using transparency or something to make the actual project name stand forward more?

Seconded.

I have a friend who's quite proficient in Photoshop, I know you're not really interested in Photoshop and vector graphics isn't really his thing, but he could maybe mock up something that you guys would like, would be more appealing and could be used as a basis for someone with vector skills. :) I don't know what vector formats Photoshop supports, maybe he could provide something useful for us.

Photoshop only supports Bitmap if I'm not mistaken. Illustrator is the guy you wanna use of logos.

I think it could be quite nice to see what a pro can do with FFmpeg logo.

Just because code is syntactically "valid" GNU C doesn't mean gcc can always compile it. Steven Bosscher - 2005-01-01 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11203#c14
