+This is the official branding that Parabola adopted in 2013.
+
+The discussion of the change mostly took place at
+ https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/282
+
+Directories:
+ `originals` The original art files that were created by Jorge
+ Araya Navarro ("Shackra").
+ `optimized-path` Optimized versions of the art with simpler SVG
+ source, that use <path> elements to draw the
+ text.
+ `optimized-text` Further simplified versions, that use <text> to
+ draw the text. Also includes `archlogo` and
+ `favicon` graphics for the website.
+
+The `optimized-path` versions should render identically to the
+originals (but Inkscape and copyright metadata isn't there).
+
+The `optimized-text` versions require the font "URW Gothic L" must be
+installed. This also means that the rendering might be slightly
+different at a subpixel level (most programs, almost imperceptible),
+or very different if text hinting is enabled (Mozilla).
+
+ Note: I render them with the Type1 version of the font from the
+ `gsfonts` package. Perhaps if I figured out how to force it
+ to use the PostScript version of the font, the subpixel
+ differences might go away.
