[OpenFontLibrary] Contribute logos for permissive font licenses on OFLBv2

[Ed Trager]

Hi, all,

For what it is worth, here's my 2 cents opinion:

=>  I like having the full acronym as text next to the logo.  In this
I believe I concur with Dave and Ben.

=>  Because I liked the MIT logo with the dinosaur, I made up some
quick-and-dirty samples for OFL and GPL that would match the MIT logo.

=> I created "color", "grayscale" and "black & white" alternates just
to see what they would look like.


My conclusions?:

=> I actually kind of like the color column.

=> The cartoonish version of the GNU head would need to have a few
adjustments for better clarity at this small size.  I've decided I
really don't like the other GNU head (on the far right in the
"black&white" column.

=> The dinosaur could also perhaps be put in color -- not sure what
color would be appropriate?

=> The samples would need to be at the 71x30 size -- not sure if that
would work or not?

Best - Ed
