[MOBY-dev] [moby] BioMOBY powered logo?

[Pieter Neerincx]

Hi Mark,

I really like the "old" logo and I want to make BioMOBY look good on  
that poster, so I didn't want to settle for the low-res version. It  
turns out the font used to create it was American Typewriter and once  
you have the correct font recreating a high resolution vector image  
is no longer mission impossible :). I made a new high res version in  
Adobe Illustrator and PDF format. The position of the Cs, Gs and Ts  
is slightly different in the new version, but you'll have to see them  
side by side to notice the difference. To make sure it won't get lost  
again I checked them into the CVS. They are available from ~moby-live/ 
Docs/Artwork/

Cheers,

Pi
