Sort of like the OSM based T-shirts:

I like the idea, but perhaps it makes things a little too complex?

A contour line map of The Netherlands as a biz card background would not be 
very exciting ;-)

Okay I have an idea that I may regret sharing - because I am not enough of a 
cartographer to make it happen. 

What if we went for a line work map (no fills or very saturated fills) and 
people could zoom into an appropriate area for their biz card or presentation 
subject matter? We would need a consistent palette to go well with the logo and 
general branding - but I love the metaphor of every member, local chapter, 
event having their own location driven background.

I like the sophisticated.

But the green on the name cards etc ... its too much green, maybe more 
transparent. I am not saying to have it multicolour because printing becomes 
expensive with more colors.
The white www.osgeo.org is behind the black lines, its so wierd.

About topography, I agree with Jody. 

I would prefere as background a stylized map of the galaxy or the universe. 

In any case, thanks a lot!

Oggetto: Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] website/rebranding april update 

 

My feedback: 

 

- The topo background graphic proposed is a strong visual, but comes across as 
vintage / retro / dated to my eyes (steampunk!).  It does evolve from our 
current branding (see slide 2 here 
<https://www.slideshare.net/DirkFrigne/osgeo-think-global-act-local?qid=22fda894-eda8-4161-acca-1be6d1a323ce&v=&b=&from_search=8>
 ), but I am not sure it reflects modern mapping technologies. Wonder if we 
could go for a blueprint vector+note visualization of the data behind 
mapping....

 

- Tempted to use the current light-green as one of the colors for logo3, 
because many <https://osgeo.nl>  local chapters 
<http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Aust-NZ>  have taken the color rather than the 
visual elements as a base, others look amazing <http://www.gfoss.it>  doing 
there own thing.

Hi All,

We can share the initial cut of the branding process. It is available
as a PDF here.

Feel free to comment here or on the marketing list. We will go through
a few sets of revisions with the vendor.
