We, @leona and @jopejoe1, are the NixOS 25.11 (“Xantusia”) release managers. We are working in coordination with the marketing team to hold a design contest for the release logo. We’re happy to see your ideas for a release logo 
Please follow the following guidelines:
- Artists SHOULD submit their artwork in this thread for consideration.
- Artists SHOULD adhere to the branding guide.
- Artists SHOULD NOT use AI generated art in their submission.
- Artists’ final submission SHOULD be in a vector file format (e.g. SVG).
- Artists MUST release their artwork under an open license (e.g. CC-BY or CC0).
- Artists MUST only use images as base source that are under licensed freely, i.e. public domain, CC0 or similar
We have a Matrix room (#nixos-2511-release-logo:leona.is) where we can discuss ideas and collaborate. You can also ask us questions here.
A design will be selected by 2025-11-20 and added to the branding repository.
