Hi Ambassadors,
I am very excited to let you all know that the Wikipedia Education Program now has a visual identity!
What's a visual identity, you ask? It's a common look and feel that stretches across all implementations of our program, but it gives each region a chance to localize the look. Many of you may be familiar with the visual work done for the 10th Anniversary celebrations last year and all the truly awesome localized works that came out of it; we want to capture that spirit for the Education Program as well. David Peters, the designer of the 10th Anniversary identity, has been working with us for several months to get this look right.
Here's how it works: * We provide a handbook that shows you how to create a mark for your local region (school, state, city, etc.). * We provide assets in SVG format, which you can incorporate into your local mark. * You upload your new mark to Wikimedia Commons and add it to our gallery. * Use your new mark on campus T-shirts, outreach banners, wiki pages, etc.

And if you have any questions… let me know!
