Show your distro pride with a “Powered by” Linux sticker. 70 distros to choose from.

StickerPack has been updated with Rhino Linux, TrueNAS Open Storage, and the new logo for MX Linux!

Show your #distro pride with a “Powered by” Linux sticker for your computer! Created in #Inkscape. 70 distros represented, from Alma Linux to Zorin. Just unhide the layer you want and export or print.

Don’t see your favorite distro? It’s probably because I can’t find a print quality logo to use. Links to print-quality logos appreciated.

Why not just "Powered by Linux" and slab a penguin on the machine?

May I shamelessly plug my alteranate design?
I picked it up, lost motivation, dropped it, again and again, so it's in a sorry state (shoot, I am in a sorry state), but here goes:

Glad you like it!
It's not so much the icon itself, but more what I wanted to do with it, I was asked if there was a Plymouth theme with that so I thought to make it in Blender and then generate the Plymouth animation, but I never completely succeeded because I didn't understand how it works so in my tests the aspect ratio was all off, I still don't know who I could ask for help with that

Don't listen to the naysayers. This is fun and people like seeing similar-minded dorks out and about. Having said that, I wouldn't put some business logo on my computer. But a community distro, why not? Been there done that.

Can confirm this is real and a really good deal. Got the pack and have put a couple on my main uni laptop. 10/10 I love how it makes me a walking stereotype!

But you can be in my suduoer's file if you want... (Debian rizz) :-P

It's even free international shipping and VAT (25% in my country) is included in the price.

Crazy.

3

Where I live (ymmv) shipping is 50cent if you ship a looooot of stuff, vat is like 18 cents, that means they need to turn a profit on 32 cents, dividing 32 by 10 we obtain 3.2 cents a sticker, wow. (just bought them btw)

Why not export them rather than requiring people to install Inkscape just to view the files?

I'll rephrase. Why require an editor? The most common viewers of SVG do not support layers.

1

Just open it in your webbrowser, even most image viewers (I think including eog and xviewer) can open them as images.

Inkscape isn’t necessary. Any app that can open SVG files should work.

I suppose that I’m just too lazy after spending tens of hours locating 71 different high resolution logo files, a bunch of different word marks, researching and installing various typefaces, creating layers, groups, precisely aligning and resizing stuff 71 different times, converting all the text into outlines, hiding all the layers, creating a repository, uploading to GitHub, and then offering it to anyone for free.

It IS accessible. SVG is a standard format that can be opened by any number of different programs across multiple operating systems.

Just because you chose not to install one of those programs is not my problem.

I don’t get mad when I need to open a pdf but I don’t have a pdf reader. I install a fucking pdf reader.

Get off of your horse, dude.

Remind me and I could probably fix separate files for every icon. Shouldn't be too bad with slices in Affinity Designer.

Edit: I opened a pull request.

What image viewer are you using? Both Gwenview and Loupe display Inkscape Layers flawlessly for me

Yeah why not also add the firmware blobs to the label as well. Without them, your device wouldn't work at all. A shiny "UEFI/iwlwifi/broadcom" and "secret microcode updates" should work.

It's not just "powered by Linux" but powered by "linux-firmware/Linux"

Did I do the funny yet?

Yes? For example, my local print shop only prints files from email. Makes it a little hard to download and attach to an email on my phones email app if the button is missing on mobile.

Or sometimes I don't have access to my PC and I'll downlod stuff to my phone to transfer to my PC later.

Good point!

If you want a specific svg, you can download it from its own page.
For example, from here you can tap the the dots top-right and download the file.

Maybe this helps?

Is it really a reason for pride to run a certain kernel?

5

I run the mainline kernel. The pride part is my system is built in a reproducible way, with all of the packages versioned and having versioned dependencies.

For example, my wine is from the stable channel, but the rest are from the unstable channel, but there are no conflicts because the dependencies are not installed globally

2

Maybe if you backport hardware support (including x86_64) and bug fixes manually from mainline to 2.4 and compile it as a 64-bit kernel with GCC-2.95.3 for a Ryzen. That'd pretty much get you whatever stickers you wanted. 🤣

Is it possible to add LMDE? The logo should be the same for Linux Mint, but the name underneath should be different.

I could also just look into editing the Linux Mint sticker myself one of these days.

Unfortunately, I’ve had a hard time locating the typeface that they use in their word mark, so I’ve been unable to create the “Debian Edition” text. The word mark that I’m using is a vector file and not a font.

It’s possible that the word mark uses custom glyphs, because I don’t see any mention of the typeface on the official logo GitHub page.

If you have any luck locating the typeface, let me know and I’ll be happy to add LMDE.

I’ll look for Tuxedo, but Peppermint OS appears to have dropped their old logo in favor of a word mark on their website. I don’t see the old logo anywhere.
