-Some ideas on what to do with the name and logo of [http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?InkScape Inkscape].  The key resource here will be the [http://www.inkscape.org website], which is going through lots of good revisions.  Some other ideas:
+{{Outdated|message=This page has moved to the website: https://inkscape.org/about/branding/}}
-==== The Name ===
-* Inkscape should be capitalized (not BiCapitalized), and is only one word.  Inkscape is not named Inkspace.
-Correct: Inkscape
-Incorrect: inkscape, Ink Scape, Inkspace, InkScape
-:This needs to be fixed on the Wiki.  Fortunately, this Wiki does not require [[WikiName]]s for links. -- MenTaLguY
-----------
-==== Mottos ====
-* Inkscape: Expand your horizons
-* How about: "Draw your mountain" -- Ted
-:I used the motto on the About screen (see Screenshots).  -- bryce
-----------
-==== Logo Treatment ====
-Colors:
-* 1-color: Prefered colors (in order of preference) are black (on lighter backgrounds), or white (on sufficiently dark backgrounds).  The snowcap and rim line knocked out (transparent).
-* 2-color: The mountain and ink should be black, and white (for the snowcap and rim line)
-----------
-==== Sample Treatments ====
-(a proposed badge) <a href="http://www.inkscape.org" alt="InkScape - Expand your horizons" title="InkScape - Expand your horizons">http://www.coalmarch.com/images/inkscape-badge-small.png</a>
-:To be honest, I am not very fond of this treatment; the "Xpand" looks like a product name rather than a shortening of the slogan.  The badge might be passable by itself without the type, but I don't think the brushed metal look contributes to the brand identity either. This may be a better example of what not to do. -- MenTaLguY
