Brand

Simple, solid and quiet: a well-made tool, built to last. The mark is a tower in front of a wall, two offset tiles in one brass, like the marks of rVPN, rChat and rCommerce.

Logo

The front tile is the tower, with a battlement for its top edge and one arrow slit. Below 24 pixels the slit is left out. Write "Rook web server" the first time, then "Rook", and rookd only for the program.

Plain and exact. We say what Rook does, and we only publish a performance number if we can show how it was measured.
