What wordmark is that?
That isn't our Beta wordmark, so I don't think we should be using that. I think that is the headline image from the channel page. For a snippet about beta, I would think it should just be the Firefox logo since we shouldn't be having the wordmark crunched into a 40x50 image.

Agree with Sean that we don't want to squish the wordmark (or any text, really) in a tiny snippet. And that's definitely not the beta lockup (which is why I didn't want to use that presentation of the logo + channel name, since it could be confused with the official lockup). We've *definitely* done FF logos as snippets before. Could you please follow up with Laura F on that? She should have a collection of past snippets and surely FF is in her files. Marking as won'tfix - LoFo should definitely have this :) She will likely have other snippet icons that we've used for the beta before. I believe last time we had one with a bit of highlighted glow effect behind it.

It's worth noting that we generally are trying to stay away from using the Fx logo in snippets (since there's already a large Fx logo on the page, it's not all that differentiated). But, it's also hard to communicate 'beta' as a concept in a 40x50 size without using the logo.

Cool. Yah I think I remember using spaceships as part of the "beta" graphic library... Thanks for the update.
