I fully agree with Jake on this. �New logos are important -- we need to ensure that we have no�recognizable�brand. �Furthermore, it is unexcellent of all of you to criticize the work of other members like this. �It is quite apparent that a lot of time and creativity went into this new logo, and it's not okay for you all to come in and insult it.<div>
<br></div><div>I also support creating more logos to represent Noisebridge. �I think we should all create our own, and they'll all be regarded as "supplemental" logos for Noisebridge. �We can even take turns with them being the main logo on the wiki.</div>
<div>In this spirit, I humbly suggest my own creation:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://imgur.com/VpLCh.png">http://imgur.com/VpLCh.png</a></div><div><br></div><div>I feel that it has excellent homages. �I chose the eagle to represent the German CCC heritage we have, the Hacker Dojo logo to represent the Silicon Valley heritage, and to note our clear solidarity with other hacker spaces. �Additionally, I chose an excellent comic sans font, which I think looks pretty snappy, and does a great job representing the artists that Noisebridge has.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Lastly, I've created a slogan for us that I think embodies the Noisebridge consensus-based spirit.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope you all enjoy it, because apparently the rest of you get no input before I go paint it on the wall at 2169.</div>

</div>Some of us are part of both communities and an homage is not the same as<br>
copying. Just to be clear, they were all in favor of the homage (with<br>
perhaps a slight criticism about the keyboard layout); In any case, it's<br>
certainly in good taste for many of those in the CCC Berlin.<br>

Best,<br>
