Description
While I was adding summer logo proposals, I've got an idea for a cool logo for FFmpeg. Unfortunately, I had switched to linux lately, so I don't have Adobe Illustrator installed anymore and I don't know of any decent linux replacement for it, so I guees I'll just have to lay out the idea here, for someone who has got it installed.
The idea is simple. To create a zig-zag logo to look like a film strip, like these examples:


The idea is not very difficult to implement and here is the simple tutorial how to do it: http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials/illustration/from-curve-to-filmstrip-in-adobe-illustrator/
Since it's not that difficult to create it and it looks really cool, I thought I should suggest it. If noone, who is on Winblows, is interested to create it, I'll see to make it myself when I manage to install a VM and Illustrator :)






Also, here is a nice font that looks like a film strip and it's freeware (even for commercial use): http://www.fontspace.com/fontmaker/movie-times
