[OLPC-Philippines] Growing a Village: Website Help!

[Ryan Letada]

Hi K and Naz,

Thanks for the support! We really appreciate it.

Will send you the information to your private email. We are still working on
the informational/press packet, so its not open to the public yet.

@K - Yep, we are changing that logo - we are looking for a more cleaner and
fluid look - some descriptive words that come into mind are  - child-like,
futuristic, dream-like, colorful, vibrant. The logo and the color scheme we
have on the informational materials would be a good start.

More to come,

Ryan
