The following conversation is taken from Wikivoyage/Logo 2013/Submissions#Option 26 - Travel modes:

My first submission. Don't know if it is to be my last.
After going over the other submissions, I'm surprised none have use the plane and boat together yet! As per advice from other people, I've been gathering some details needed, and this is end result #1. I need some room for improvisation, though, like the square version.
As for the font, I have no idea of it yet.
I'm also planning to add a tagline, but just like the main one, I'm not sure of the font here, too... NJKFalcon (talk) 18:00, 19 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

...Why two couple of brackets?
It's a "wiki" reference. Don't know exactly how to put it in a way... NJKFalcon (talk) 18:00, 19 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
Similar idea to the MediaWiki logo. PiRSquared17 (talk) 18:11, 19 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
It's an In joke is it not? That's not helpful when reaching out to the public 81.178.175.163 19:38, 19 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
Honestly I don't like it, but I'm writing you for a general suggestion. Wiki-brackets works for an internal logo, where all the audience knows exactly what they are (like the MediaWiki one). Wikivoyage has a different target, a much more wider one, that potentially they don't know how to write a wiki-article and they will never do, so for them the brackets will remain meaningless. Try something different. --Andyrom75 (talk) 08:36, 20 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
I don't mind the brackets themselves, but they need to go. They're making the central part of the design way too small. Nick1372 (talk) 15:09, 20 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
Vertically stretch the brackets and remove the bold (not [[ ]], but [[ ]]). Put them in gray. They could be like less square, more round, like a wind symbol ( ). You should be able to enlarge the boat-plane. Cantons-de-l'Est (talk) 02:17, 23 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
