Hi Ed,

Thanks for looking into this. In that case, do you think you could
research how you can use each service's logos and contact the copyright
holders to get permission if necessary?

Once that's been sorted we can then publish Postman on the Software Center.

Alternatively, would it not be possible to create your own version of
the logos?

Cheers,
David.
