Re: Discussion about: Joomla! Brand Guide & Logo Usage Released

Another problem I just thought of: you say on page 12 that the horizontal version of the logo should not be smaller than 1.375 inches, but the size that the logo will display on a user's screen is dependent on their resolution.  For example, I have my monitor set to 1280x1024 pixels, the logo on pa...

Re: Discussion about: We need your Joomla! badges

So many good buttons here already so I didn't even try the 80x15. I did put together several larger sized buttons though. http://www.urquharttownson.com/artwork/get_joomla_01.png http://www.urquharttownson.com/artwork/get_joomla_02.png http://www.urquharttownson.com/artwork/powered_by_joomla_01.png ...

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

Well everybody, off to bed I go...it's way past my bedtime. Got the modifications done to the logo and sent some color solutions for the logo to the development team. Don't worry some of the solutions use the same colors for all of those who like those colors as do I...just mixed the order up a bit ...

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

Very Bad choice....I'm shocked.... Combination of MS Office logo + Fascist swastik.... My favorite is JBird !! CTPAHHuK can think of the logo any way he pleases. Personally I don't see it. Obviously he's been doing extensive research on the subject. Maybe he would like to read more about the other ...

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

Well, congratulations, I did vote for your logo too!! I particularly liked the glossy one... And about the colors, I don't think that's a big problem, we should just ask Microsoft to change their colors  Congratulations Again! I think thats the best suggestion made in this forum so far....

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

Just a note. One of the color combinations still uses the same colors but switches the position of two of the colors to break away from the color wheel model. It still resembles microsoft with the colors but not the pattern.

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

I think you did a great job its the perfect logo....... I prefer glossy logos .... (maybe you can add some gloss to it) . Yep it will nice if you can post some color variations here before people start catching up to that office logo similarity. I don't think there is cause to panic ............. A...

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

Okay...I guess it is time for me to respond. To start off, as for the coincidence of the logo being too similar to the Microsoft office logo...that was done unknowingly and unintentionally. I've have never payed attention to the Microsoft Office logo partly due to the fact that I work on a Mac and n...

found the bug. open administrator/components/com_modules/admin.modules.php at row ~ 482 . "n WHERE id IN ( $cids )" and change it to .

Re: Background information?

I already voted so it doesn't really matter to me but... I found that I wanted to know background information about each of the logos.  Why did the artist choose what they did?  What was the idea or meaning behind the graphic?  This especially came up for the fish one. I know that very information ...

Re: New Logo

I guess a "creative" hand symbol will be the best  ::) I think, that fits. And to quote Brian in his first posting: The idea can be turned into a masterpiece later. Let the pros play with the hand-symbol - they already did a good job with the name, in spite of some other opinions here, who will lov...

Re: New Logo

Well, a lot of good proposals here. But yours topped it! Please Joomlers read what infograf wrote about his suggestion! Why a hand and why with a hole. It is an old symbol, immediately understood in every culture, because you can find it as cave paintings or rock etchings wordwide. Sometimes the ha...

Re: New Logo

I think slogan has to be "together" with its logo! So for avoiding an abstract idea with an "out of slogan" logo. A logo needs to work without it's slogan...if it doesn't it is worthless. There will be applications of printing that won't allow for a slogan to go on it because of size limitations.

Re: New Logo

The only problem I see with this logo is the figure eight in Joomla. http://www.xperis.com/Joomla.gif It is not a figure 8 it is an infinty symbol.  The cool thing is that the text part of the logo is echoed in the symbolic logo. It is clean and elegant.  I can see it gaining visual recognition lik...

Re: New Logo

The only problem I see with this logo is the figure eight in Joomla. It takes away too much from the actual symbol of people in the circle. You should always have one point of emphasis. In this logo your eye is being drawn back and forth between the figure eight and the symbol. I think it would make...

Re: New Logo

Can't take the credit for the initial design on this, but I took the hand from a previous post and cleaned it up a bit and added the text. I switched up the colors and got rid of the brown in place for purple. Colors follow the color wheel also. This version will reproduce well in black and white. h...

Don't want to hurt anyone's feelings but I think something very important has been forgotten by many when creating the logo.

Re: New Logo

Well, thought I'd give it a try. Here's my idea. Even added a slogan, don't know if someone came up with it already in the slogan portion of the forum.
