Great, thanks.

I can't think of /any/ colour really, which would fit as a background  
with the current logo. But if we're going to change it, can't we do  
something like the TT logo above? Same font, nice and simple, easy to  
see that the two (or three, if we also start playing around with OHF)  
are associated and no short, unknown notations for people who haven't  
heard of us yet.

OGPN17 told me that I should look for Bitstream Charter Bold, which  
appears to be slightly different from the actual logo but close  
enough. That gave me the (very simplistic, but I like it) following  
result;

Comments? I can replace the text in like, two seconds to also make  
one stating OGP and one OHF.

I think a slogan would be a good addition. Do we have one? Or  
actually, three?

Cheers,
