Thanks for moving things forward here Aizhamal! I think Julian's work looks very promising. It would be great to also give other designers a chance; the designer I was working with was eager to do a firefly mascot. However, I don't think that is going to be practical. If Google has already agreed to pay Julian, I think we should proceed with him.

Cheers,
Max

If the logo is going to be sponsored by Google, all the better.

I was going to let Julian answer as he is following this thread, but yes, the design will have appropriate licences so we can use and reuse and modify it in the future. Julian also expressed willingness to stay active in the community to contribute more varieties of the mascot as we need :)

        Good question. IMO it is a very good thing to have fun as with
        the variety of uses of the Go language mascot.

            I hope for the mascot will be simple enough so everyone can
            draw it and adapt. The mascot will be license free right...
            so you don't need to pay the graphic artist for every use of
            the mascot?

                Thanks Kenn for running the vote!


                I had reached out to a couple designers that I know
                personally and few in the community to see whether they
                were willing to contribute the designs.


                Julian was one of them, who agreed to work with us for a
                reasonable fee which can be donated by Google. Julian is
                a very talented visual artist and creates really cool
                animations too (if we want our Firefly to fly).


                Here is more about Julian’s work:

                <http://www.artstation.com/jbruno>


                If you all agree to work with him, I will start the
                process. Here is how it is going to look like:


                 1.

                    Julian will be sending us a series of sketches of
                    the firefly in the dev@ list, iterating on the
                    version that we like the most

                 2.

                    If the sketches meet the community’s expectations,
                    he will continue polishing the final design

                 3.

                    Once the design has been approved, he will give the
                    final touches to it and send us raw files containing
                    the character on whichever file format we want


                What do you all think?
