Re: Not snazzy (was: New Unicode Savvy Logo)

A logo with a yellow or light blue or pale green background would be more 
appealing on various bright backgrounds. I also think that the grey logo is too 
dark and difficult to red, and the pink logo is quite strange.

The red of the checkmark should contrast more by using asaturated color, and 
the Unicode letters should have well-contrasted borders. The "savvy" word may 
only be appealing to English readers (other readers may confuse it with "save 
it" and would not understand it clearly).

I would have much prefered expressions like "smart with Unicode", or "The world 
speaks Unicode", or simply "this site speaks Unicode", or "Unicode feeds this 
site", or the small Unicode logo with the text "Best viewed by everyone", or 
"Unicode speaks your language"...
