Steemit Community Logo for Slovakia and Some Communist History Fun Inside (2 Vector Designs, Suggestions are welcome)

Have you heard of this small country in the center of Europe called Slovakia? There's a sizeable crpto-anarchist community there and many people interested in decentralization, crypto currencies and block chain.

It has great things to offer: - beautiful nature and mountains (9 UNESCO-protected national parks in a country with 5 milion people) - great Slavic food - smart people - apparently beautiful women (but doesn't every country say that? ) - and surely more

Though maybe I'm biased as I was born there ...

So after seeing this post by @olegw I decided to create a logo. I came up with two ideas.

Let me tell you a bit about the history of the Slovak national Coat of Arms. - The three hills represent our mountains and it's three because of a Legend. - The cross symbolize two Saints who brought us our language - the red shield is just a very common thing that most people used at the time of creation. No creativity there really.

Ok, back to the logo.

First idea

First idea was simple. Changing the cross to Steemit Logo and make it look like Steem is coming out of the mountains.

Second Idea

This one is interesting. It's basically rewamping the cross with Steemit's curves. And one thing I like is that it makes it also look like a dolphin jumping into the blue mountain (or waves). So it's pretty cool. There's probably a way to improve it but I like the idea. Let me know if you have any ideas of how to improve it.

Communist and Steemit?

While confirming some of the facts in this post I found this sigil that was used during communst times.... Well, that is almost perfect Steemit Community Logo.
