Re: New Logo

... I do not see the flower when I look at this new design... I see the blobs on the end as heads, reflecting an aerial view of 6 people, just like the nice wooden sculpture. I guess this is the point...the asterisk (Mambo flower) has no relation to heads or joining of forces or any of the like...i...

Re: New Logo

The flower logo was generated from an asterisk in a particular font...I guess the contention is that if the asterisk is flattened and super-imposed upon the new coloured Joomla icon, there might be more of a similarity - each design contains 6 spokes...since the Mambo flower logo IS twisted a bit, I...

Re: New Logo

That's nice.... Maybe something more generic too, so we are not too fixed on the fact that this is a good CMS or a very good CMS, people aren't much interested in that, they get buzzed up on the end result, on what it enables them to do, on what it gives them the power to do.  If you capture th...

That looks nice rendered up, but I am still with Peek's hand, but there is mileage in the sculpture being used for marketing, both in full view and close up variations..would look real nice..

Re: New Logo

The size looks fine to me as is, the proportion looks good, there should be a displacement and discrepancy between sizes of the icon and the type, otherwise there is no dynamic..the type assumes more impact because it is a shape as well as a word, so the icon (hand in this case) needs to have a bit ...

Re: New Logo

Actually, that would work well as a photo for an ad campaign..would also provide a few headaches for the clearance people to get copyright permission to use it...I am not convinced there will be an email address of the sculptor stamped on it somewhere!  :D

Re: New Logo

Now those logos say it, and I feel it, and the 'hand' works on it's own as an icon, motif, logo etc etc and the logo type (text) works on it's own too, incorporating the infinity symbol, and of course they work together...this is a very, very strong concept..I have to congratulate those involved in ...

Re: New Logo

A logo is not really to advertise a brand, it is to re-enforce it.  Advertising is achieved using public relations (PR) and marketing - if you check the big players like Microsoft, Adobe, Macromedia et al they all have their own ways of marketing, but they are not using the logo to advertise - they ...

Re: New Logo

For what it's worth, as it has been mentioned here before, the logo should re-produce well in many different formats - for print, web, shirts, caps, faxes etc etc, so it needs to work well in full colour and 1 colour (black) and it needs a form that is really punchy and has instant impact. I think t...
