ARES_Color_Logo.svg‎ (SVG file, nominally 141 × 141 pixels, file size: 102 KB)

The Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) Logo. I created this file by:

Downloading http://www.arrl.org/logos/ares_vector.zip
Opening ARES_Color.eps in Adobe Illustrator
Saving that file from Illustrator in SVG format
Opening that SVG file in Inkscape
Saving that file in plain SVG format

For some reason, uploading the SVG file after just the Illustrator step resulted in Wikipedia being unable to create a thumbnail view of the image. Inkscape massaged the file to a format that Wikipedia likes.

Non-free / fair use media rationale - non-free logo for Amateur Radio Emergency Service
Description	This is a logo for Amateur Radio Emergency Service.
Source	The logo is from the http://www.arrl.org/logos/ares_vector.zip website.
Article	Amateur Radio Emergency Service
Portion used	The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.
Low resolution?	The logo is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Purpose of use	The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Amateur Radio Emergency Service, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.
Replaceable?	Because it is a logo there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
Other information	Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.
