Hi, I’d like to be able to typeset the julia icon in LaTeX documents just like I can for LaTeX via \LaTeX. I have a crude implementation of

%  
% A macro for typesetting julia  
%  
\usepackage{xcolor}  
\newcommand{\julia}{\ensuremath{\overset{\color{blue}\bullet\color{black}}{\jmath}ul\hspace{-1pt}\overset{\color{red}\bullet\color{black}}{\imath}^{\vphantom{|}^{!!\color{teal}\Huge{\bullet}\color{black}}}!!\overset{\color{purple}\bullet\color{black}}{a}}}

I was hoping someone out there had a better implementation.  
Thanks

This is a bit old now but here is a link to a discussion: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/113421/making-a-latex-version-of-a-textual-logotype

The tikz version is pretty impressive in my opinion.

Your link does not link to anywhere. It is just the address with link formatting.

Perhaps it was because he was a new poster. Not sure. Here is the linked link.

Perfect!  
Thanks so much. I figured that someone had to have done this.
