I want to congratulate Mike Jones and my other colleagues for all their work in creating and figuring out how to protect an Information Card icon that can be used by everyone worldwide who supports InfoCard technology.  Creative people, legal people, and marketing folks all helped bring this to fruition.  Here's Mike's post<\/a>:<\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m very pleased to announce that, as of today, there is now a graphical icon freely available for people to use to indicate that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Information Cards are accepted here\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. This icon is intended to provide a common visual cue that Information Cards can be used to provide information to a site or program, similarly to how the RSS icon is used to indicate the availability of syndicated content.<\/p>\n

The guidelines for the use of the icon, a frequently asked questions document, a set of png images of the icon rendered in a range of sizes, and the original artwork in Illustrator format are all available together in a download package<\/a>. Please consult the guidelines<\/a> and the FAQ<\/a> before using the icon.  [You can also download the icon package <\/em>here<\/em><\/a> – Kim<\/em>]<\/p>\n

You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll notice that the login page for my blog<\/a> now uses the icon. Hopefully your sites will soon too!<\/p>\n

And just for fun, because the icon is, after all, a graphical element, here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a gallery of the renderings of the icon that we included in the downloads package. Enjoy!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

OK Mike – I just updated my login page too.  I used to have the picture of my heroine Elastigirl as my InfoCard icon, but it's time to move on.  I'll continue to honor her through the quote at the top of my blog.<\/p>\n

For the curious, Mike's posting includes the definitive series of icon variants – an outstanding display of Warholian excess.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
