This contribution is a result of collaboration with the project owner who needed a logo for his open source project and my desire to help him. It's not a task requested by Utopian.

Logo proposal
Zan means thumbs-up gesture or "like" symbol in Chinese. So I decided to use a combination of a thumbs-up symbol as “zan” and a server icon as “proxy”.
Website Mock-Up (linear option)
Benefits / Improvements
The purpose of my proposal was to help this open source project to get its visual identity. I used a simple idea, which has recognizable forms and it's easy to remember. This new logo makes the project visually appealing. It unites two main ideas of the project and it can be adapted to different environments. The project owner was very pleased with the result of my work and he’s already updated the project with a new logo.
