Here's a logo I made for an open source team a few years ago.

This orange is the signaure colour of the default theme of our first product, Surge, now Surge XT. Around it are the diversity of contributors. We're inclusive.

We were building out the website to showcase our growing portfolio of projects, when someone made the call for a logo. Having past pro graphic design experience, I offered to draft some ideas, and this was my best.

Sometimes logos have meaning. I didn't want to 'swoosh'.
