Re: Discussion about: It's Time to Celebrate the Freedom — Yet Again!

Re: Discussion about : Joomla! 1.1 — Developer Power, User Excitement

What is the status of improving the forge.  I miss the organizational tools from MAmboforge  The number of projects without the tools for navigating them by project type or maturity is making the list nearly unusable. If you know what you want you can search, but sometimes you don't know w...

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

another thing i want to mension is, why do you call it a brand, it isn't a product or company, it is opensource software. I know it is apposed to sound professional, however it looks to formal, like a kid trying to act like an adult. I think that, it should just put these are guide lines what the j...

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

It is a pathetic thing to do, we might aswell not even put a logo on the site with the amount of restrictions , i think this is a stupid move by joomla, i wasn't very pleased with some things but this is becoming worse. We should be able to put it on backgrounds that are tinted and use it in our ow...

@dmcole, Good post. Some very good points well presented and also very informative. Now, to try and think of a sentence with the word Joomla! as a verb.  "After I Joomla your site it will be much easier to maintain and expand with new features." "After Joomlaing the project, it became clear th...

Re: Discussion : Logo Winner Annoucement

Very Happy... Congrats... Though I just noticed the the menu on the Joomla admin page is horizontal with vertical drop downs and pop out menus like Microsoft Office has.  SO I am hoping we can vote about that soon.  Maybe we can have the menu do diagonal and not use text but just icons (we...

Forge organize project menu

May I missed it.

But the current format for projects will under historic community support, become overwhelming fast!
Will there be one like on "the old forge" that organizes com,mod, and bot and types of functions?

So your telling me it takes more clicks to send a message asking someone to change a mistake. vs altering a private profile?  I wasn't arguing with the rules.  I just had forgotten that one. Reposting them just sounds like a "I'm right what's your problem " attitude. Didn't we all end up h...

Re: New Logo

I agree with all of those who feel that we need to get away from the mambo flower...using the same concept of people in a circle from orbitant's logo I put together this logo below. The difference is that I eliminated some of the people to get away from the mambo shape and that the people are inter...

Re: New slogan

Rather than favoring English or another language people use.. how about a slogan in a language no one uses  Latin!!

Carpe Textus

"Seize the Web"

carpe: seize, grab hold of
textus : woven cloth, web.

Re: New Logo

Why a slogan in english? the future of a cms has to be multi-language and why we do choose a good slogan in english that translated it can be a bad one ?! Well instead of a slogan, describe what the cms is: simple fast and powerful and STOP. If you see Joomla everybody knows is a cms and not a wind...

Given the amount of compaints about Miro's selective censorship and doing things suddenly, I would like to ask that the Forum Moderators here try being being above the level of "I am in control here" and try a little "I am here to help make this a better forum." I did not know that images were not a...

your creativity is really amazing . Yes, while I still favor the logo in my signature.  There are many I think would be great, and even those I don't favor have really amazing creativity.  I do think it is time to try to narrow it down and shut down submissions. Amazing good work! [It was in my sig...

My suggestion would be to substitute the blue from the OSM forum template in place of the red..

I think the red & black come from the joomla.org site :)

The 8 in the middle create's an infinant loop joining the two circles together (development and community perhaps?) and means infinity in math corners.


There is something about this I like.. not sure why :)
