Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] ​​OSGeo Seal Design Contest

2016-02-12 Thread Cameron Shorter 

I've added a first submission to the OSGeo Seal contest.
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Seal_contest#Submission_1

I propose that the existing OSGeo Compass (or one of the existing 
variants) be considered as the OSGeo Seal. My reasoning is that our 
existing logo is good, works well as a seal, and is consistent with 
OSGeo's branding with helps retain a recognizable image leading to 
strong branding. As I've done no work creating this image, I'm taking 
myself out of the running for accepting any awards.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] ​​OSGeo Seal Design Contest

2016-02-10 Thread Cameron Shorter 
I'm interested to know how a company seal should be different to our 
existing OSGeo Logo?

https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Logo

* Would a company seal dilute the branding of the logo?

* Should the company seal be based on the OSGeo logo in order to 
consolidate brand recognition? (I assume so)

The seal is more formal (as described used in a similar fashion as a
signature for awards, contracts, agreements).

I imagine a successful design could make use of the logo - perhaps you
would like to submit your idea Cameron?

​The way I see it, the seal should be a compact (probably round),
black design. I left the design brief open on purpose, but I'd expect
mostly variations of the existing logo. ​
