Thanks, everyone! There is indeed  a full style guide for openstack—including available resources like logos and mascots—currently in development. Sorry that it’s not quite yet available as this would be a great use case.

Meanwhile, we’re more than happy to help where we can to keep you guys moving forward, especially if it’s a bit of guidance around implementing the design on the front-end. There may be an opportunity, too, link to some graphics hosted / maintained by www openstack, so they stay in sync without much fuss from your side. Lots of integration options, we should just plan and discuss the next steps forward. Exciting stuff—always been proud of our docs.

> For the Project Mascots, we are  working on a better format for easy download, as well as a code snippet so you can just add the logo to the website. In the meantime, the project mascots are all located in Dropbox and can be accessed from here: https://www.openstack.org/project-mascots <https://www.openstack.org/project-mascots>
