Linpro wins NUUG Award

Linpro logo, designed by Øystein Wika

Congrats to Linpro who got this years NUUG Award from the Norwegian Unix User Group. They got the award for their outstanding work in the field of Free Software, in which Linpro is a clear leader.

The reason I'm writing about this, is because Linpro was one of my first brand-id customers. Back in 1998 I designed their company logo. It's nice to see that the logo is still there, and it's my impression that it has become a very recognizable logo over the years.

Recently they added some kind of L-shaped symbol to it, which I did not fancy very much. I basically think it looks like a "splat of blood", and it takes away the clean modern look of the logo-types. Oh well...

But anyways: Bottoms Up for Linpro :)
