I love Tux, but I wish Linux as a whole would have a logo. Like, you have Windows and Apple logo that represent the OSes in a simple way, it works even if the logo is small. Linux doesn’t have that, so when someone needs a logo they just use the logo of a Linux distro instead, or they show multiple distros, or more likely, they will visually represent some distros, but not all distros they support.

Tux is the universal logo

Doesn’t really fit that well in small areas, and it sorta works in black and white, but not really.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
