I took asqwerth's request and improved it to "stamp design".
I leave it to the members to judge whether this design proposal is good or bad.

Work point:
At Freja early model, Good visibility even when resized.
(Do not change the impression as much as possible.)

I am also a little busy, doing light parts assembly work and small design office work,
so I think there will be times when I can't reply for a while.
I try to check the forums as much as possible.
In the world filled desire,
I seek only essence, serve for MX.
I just needing only ideal in the art at all.
I want to protect place of rest called MX LINUX. :coffee:

That's very handsome, though I wonder if it would get lost on a dark background.

Have to admit this is still too lopsided for me. I like the X to be centred like here:

Can you do a version of your latest logo with the X in the centre?

The asymmetry of the mountains as a foundation to work around is a big part of what pulls they eye in the original logo and it's derivatives, any ideas without the mountains...? If only to see the potential of a new logo without them? I'm not really a graphic artist, I can combine existing things and get by sometimes but not good at creating from scratch..

By centering the X
Because the overall balance changes dramatically,
I was forced to do a major overhaul (total rebalance).

So I will rebuild,
I decided the design going little drastic.

A clock-like composition and a magic circle pattern
And the familiar M + X.
I expressed "(MX's) world, world's (MX)".

I ran out of potential. I'm tired.

Just for the record;
asqwerth wrote: Mon Jan 23, 2023 4:29 am8bit's idea of hiding the bottom bits of the X helps by reducing the number of lines in the logo -- Cleaner look.
I started with ceeslans' image; simplified both the X and the lower lines, and added a little space between MX and Linux.
