I’m trying to add icons to the communities I moderate, and Libre Culture has been a difficult one. Libre culture is more than just open source, and more than even free (libre) software as it includes hardware too, plus non-tech stuff. It’s an ideology, one that to my knowledge doesn’t have a generally accepted symbol. I’ve been trying to find an icon that encompasses all of Libre culture, but have been unsuccessful, so I’m asking for help.

Can you recommend an icon that you think effectively represents all of Libre culture? It can either be an existing one from the internet or custom made. My main requirements are that it not be inappropriate, indecent or offensive (should go without saying), and that it be licensed under a libre license, like creative commons.

Feel free to comment your suggestions!

    I would strongly advice against using a clenched fist. It can be associated with violence.

    Do not use any symbols that could easily be misinterpreted.

    A copyright symbol with wings? A speechbubble with wings?
