It's sad that even recent history gets badly mangled. This article is written as though she completely created the Google logo, when in fact the logo had already existed for some time and she basically just changed the font (and produced a bunch of other concepts that were ultimately abandoned). The link provided by "wheels" correctly identifies the "before" logo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Google1998.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Google1998.png. I think it was created by Sergey using the Gimp, but I could be wrong about that (it was before my time).
- SwellJoe 18y agoThere's a Google Logo Script-fu. It's a pity it's not written by Sergey. But, I'm sure the actual Sergey creation pre-dates the Script-fu. http://registry.gimp.org/files/google-logo.scm http://registry.gimp.org/files/google-logo.scm
