Thanks for sharing, although I don't have any use for it. Kudos for making it open source.

By the way, what is the wiki software being used on the link you posted?

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!

Ask HN: Which service should I use to design a logo for my new startup?

Posted by briankim on Saturday February 05, 2011 @01:12PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I have always used a single freelancer in the past, but he's no longer available. I've heard about 99 designs, so I am exploring that route ... but I was hoping the knowledgeable HN crowd had some other suggestions besides that one. Thanks in advance.
