Re: About the usage of a logo

Hello, 

As you see, my goal is to provide a link to the official validator as a "confirmation" to the data I present on the page.

To do well, I wanted to use an official logo/icon wich indicates that the destination is the W3C. I see 3 possibilities :
 - on one hand, I just put a link named like "Go see the data on the official W3C Validator", but it's a little bit long and not friendly/esthetic
 - on the other, you advice me on which official logo/icon to use or if you can povide me another logo/icon which could suit this usage/goal
 - on th "last" hand, I create a personal logo/icon which will certainly be less attractive or significant as my skills in graphic are meaningless lol

Tell me what suits you the best.

Best regards
Mika�l DELSOL

Hello Mikael,

Thank you for writing. I have a number of concerns about your use of "w3c", including the ___domain name and the title of the sample page.

Please do not use the W3C name and logo for this service, which I believe is likely to cause confusion.

I am happy to discuss alternative with you.
