[QUOTE="Planesdragon, post: 1127825, member: 11133"] The Prometheus logo exists because the FGA's previous and more-obvious "Free20" and "Open20" logos caused objections from WotC's legal department. Plus, we like the myth, and the logo tends to "grow" on folks who see it a couple of times. The FGA is the organization to turn to for a new logo because we're not-for-profit, we're neutral between publishers, and, to the best of my knowledge, no one else has put forth a logo. The FGA's Board Members are currently donating time and webspace to the FGA. We also will very likely be preparing informational handouts to be distributed at industry events whenever possible. Additional direct funding for advertisments may come from dues-paying FGA members; we've been tied up getting the PCL drafted, and so haven't had a chance yet to organize the FGA and look for new members. Beyond this, Prometheus (and, theoretically, OpenDie) will be marketed the same way that d20 was marketed--publishers will include the logo on their products, distributors and store-owners will glean the meaning from publishers (or directly from the FGA), and consumers will learn of the logo when they see it on or in books that their fellow gamers have or that they see at their FLGS.
