The official logo of the Definition of Free Cultural Works was designed by Marc Falzon, and placed in the public domain:

An SVG copy can be found here (it will not load correctly in Firefox, but has been tested in Inkscape.)

The logo represents both the diversity of human culture, and the openness and freedom to interact with free cultural works. Please feel free to create derivatives of this logo, and upload them to this wiki.

Buttons

The following set of buttons were designed by http://www.amymade.com/ with the support of the Free Software Foundation and represents our official recommendation:

These buttons are in the public domain. Which color you use is your choice; we suggest red for music, black for science and software, and yellow for everything else.

Other button styles

Again a different style - contributed by Jörg Petri:

These are my attempts at using the above design. The svg versions (Media:CC-BY-SA.svg, Media:GNU FDL.svg) do not display well online. They where created using inkscape, and the SVG hasn't been cleaned up. But the blank might can be used to generate more buttons.
