[Ultima Linux logo]
The “official” Ultima Linux logo. Click for the full-size version.

Here are a few graphics, etc. we’ve created to help promote Ultima Linux. You can use these as you wish, or if you’d rather, you can even create your own – see the about page for information on how to contact us.

Penguins!

[Tuxette]
This is Tuxette, the Ultima Linux mascot. She’s actually been around for a while, since before Ultima Linux – what can I say, I like penguins. Anyway, she’s basically a female version of Tux, the official Linux penguin. The original .xcf Tuxette is available (gzip’d GIMP-format image) for those who are interested.

You can also download our ad banner template to create your own – gzip’d XCF file, you can edit it in The GIMP. You may have to right-click and select “Save Link As...” to download properly.

A few of our older ad banners, from back in the version 4 days:

Ultima Linux: It's better with the penguin.  Screw the butterfly.
When infinity just isn't enough... Ultima Linux.  Go beyond.

CD artwork

[CD Cover]
This is the official Ultima Linux CD cover, which is used by the developers primarily for showing off – I originally made it when I used Ultima as my IB Personal Project, and I think it’s worth sharing. The huge full-size image is available, as well as the original .xcf version which you can open in The GIMP.

You can also grab the official disc labels in OpenDocument Text format – use OpenOffice.org to open them – which I usually print on a sheet of Avery 8860 address labels and stick on the “official” CD-R discs to make them look fancier than they really are. :-)

T-Shirts

[Invasion of the Evil Penguins!] And of course, the official penguin-themed T-shirt. Print this on your favorite T-shirt transfer paper and iron it on – it’s a cheap and easy way to promote Ultima Linux, plus it just looks cool! Download evilpenguin.pdf (you can open it in XPDF, KPDF, etc.; forwards and backwards versions are included).

TIP: I recommend Avery 8938 transfer paper; use the backwards version of the design. Definitely avoid the fabric-based transfer sheets, because they just don’t work at all.

You can also download the original OpenDocument version of the T-shirt design, which I created using OpenOffice.org Draw. If you’re wondering, the trick is to design it using the forwards version, then duplicate slide, group everything, convert to a bitmap, and flip it horizontally for the backwards one.

Miscellaneous

[Ultima Linux Buddy Icon] We even have an Ultima Linux buddy icon. Perfect for when you’re chatting with your friends on Gaim, Kopete, etc. If you’re wondering, I just drew the letters myself, one pixel at a time – it’s a lot easier than trying to scale down a normal-sized font that’s not designed for small spaces like that.
