Logos must clearly portray the name RTEMS. <p> You can see current / previous versions of the RTEMS logo for perspective (see https://www.rtems.org/logo_list) but you should design something completely different.

If you create a design similar to something you found on the web, it is considered a derivative work and you should give proper attribution (i.e., credit) to that author by name with a link to their work.
