The current page layout has two logos: Commons on the left, with the feather. (This needs to be replaced, as it is ancient) It clearly associates Commons with Apache. The component logo is on the right. Many of these don't have feathers, but are they used stand-alone? > IMO, the main requirement should be that the logo for Commons > can be easily combined to create logos for the various components. Perhaps, but that might make the logo rather busy. If the logos are to be used on the website only, then I see no need to combine them. > Gilles > > > > > On Sat, 7 Sep 2019 at 16:58, Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> > >> On Sat, Sep 7, 2019, 11:36 Gilles Sadowski <gillese...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> > >> > 2019-09-07 16:20 UTC+02:00, Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org>: > >> > > On September 7, 2019 1:25:41 AM UTC, Gilles Sadowski < > >> > gillese...@gmail.com> > >> > > wrote: > >> > >>2019-09-06 16:53 UTC+02:00, Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org>: > >> > >>> Hi all, > >> > >>> > >> > >>> I've looked but can't find a previous vote on this. > >> > >>> > >> > >>> The current logo is: > >> > >>> > >> > >>https://apache.org/foundation/press/kit/ApacheFoundation_StyleGuide.pdf > >> > >>> > >> > >>> The options for the new logo are: > >> > >>> > >> > >>> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMMONSSITE-86 > >> > >>> > >> > >>> Of those, commons_logo.small.png is not consistent with the style > >> > >>guide > >> > >>> (the feather is rotated). > >> > >>> > >> > >>> I can't see a difference (apart from size) between > >> > >>commons-logo_new.svg > >> > >>> and commons-logo_new4.svg.
