Logo
[edit ]Hiya, is there any possibility you could use your image editing skills to make a logo for the "alphabet run" events? Perhaps with the letters A and Z on it, or perhaps a mix of different letters and a silhouette of a runner? I'm sure you have better ideas ... — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:25, 21 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Hi MSGJ. I am going to think about this. I imagine the letters running. Reach may exceed grasp so I need to think about it for awhile. I always like making logos (time permitting) . Best, --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:51, 22 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- I've added an image to Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Meetup/331. Please check if you are happy with it — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:37, 27 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Looks good MSGJ. Thanks!
