I am not sure about my entry - IMHO "tablature" is more important to me, and I think more patches from me concerned these issues (not to forget that Carl had to rework a whole lot of them). My contribution to fonts was the rotation of the G clef and the varsegno sign (which nobody seems to use, anyway ;-) But aside from this kind of nitpicking, I feel proud to be on the list and I hope that better time management will allow for spending more time on improving and extending lilypond.

I use the varsegno glyph at the slightest opportunity!
It helps the 'beginners' (I find) that I play with as it seems to be
much more easy to spot for them that are not used to jumping about in a
score, than the regular segno.
I am sure that I am breaking some engraving 'rule' but it's a nice glyph.
What I think we need actually - slightly off topic - is a nice
LilyPond-glyph similar in essence to when you see the word 'Latex' in a

I've mused about trying to create a logo using the markup
commands. If you think about all the graphical ones, plus music
glyphs, there's a lot of options. The "d" could be a rotated bass
clef, the ls could be compressed treble clefs, the p could be a
half note, etc. Or simply just using some artistic black and
white shapes and the like.
I'm not terribly graphically artistic, so I always gave up after 5
minutes... but I think it could be cool to have a lilypond-created
logo (which we could call with \lilypond inside a markup).
Cheers,

I've seen it in Bosworth & Co. scores only, but they seem to use it exclusively instead of the common shape.

I tend not to like those assembled logos very much. Most of the time,
they end up too clumsy IMHO; more like something quickly hacked
together, just for the sake of quoting musical symbols.
However, I'd certainly use a predefined command for the inclusion of
something like Valentin's logos from lilynet.net. [*] (Sadly, I don't
remember the correct address where I downloaded it from. I mean the SVG
sources of and
.)
One might argue that the quaver looks childish, but IMHO it does in a
very joyful and charming manner. And I really like the lilys, but I'm
not sure whether a full-colored logo is a good default choice.
[*] I actually already used these once, but in a separate title page
generated with inkscape, not via LilyPond itself.

No this isn't what I was referring to. Of course the whole lilypond
'icon' with the green and white is ok for the 'logo' and I like the
little 'happy quaver' but never really thought of a place for it; but I
was thinking more of a 'lilypond' in some
cursive-cum-signature-cum-all-joined-up script, but something 'created'
as a glyph than just put together.
If you think of J S Bach's signature then that could be used as nice
glyph on a tagline.
It was just the varsegno made me think of it.

Ah, okay, I get it. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Of course I meant logo + "LilyPond" text, not the logo alone, but still that's a different thing.

It needn't use any music glyphs if the artist(s) don't like it. I mean, the \LaTeX command is basically just letters in different fonts that are positioned slightly higher or lower than the baseline. And in italics. etc. We could play those games with our own markup commands.

In my opinion it would look a little too fancy.
Nevertheless the idea of creating LilyPond logo is interesting.

13371p4wn3d, huh? ;-)
Yup, that's what I meant. I know a couple of amateur musicians who
copied some musical symbols to replace single characters of their names
for their letterheads. I can't think of a single one which doesn't look
ugly. Sizes don't match, kerning (if that term is allowed for this)
does not match, it looks crowded... Just like using about the whole
fonts folder for an A5 greeting card.
I'm aware that a good designer can do amazing stuff in this direction,
but this will need subtle quotations and resemblence to the symbols, not
just concatenating and rotating a few of them. If someone's up to it -
well, then show us what you can do!

Still, I like James initial idea of a scripted logo. But in the
meantime, this looks like a good alternative to me.
Isn't there an engraver application which has some inkpot-and-feather
logo? Something along this line.

That looks quite "busy" to my taste. My latest 5-minute hack is
something like this:
\markup {
\column {
\line {
\italic \concat {
\concat {
\huge \bold \lower #.5 L
\large ily
}
\concat {
\large { \dynamic p }
\large ond
}
}}}
\line {
\fontsize #5
\rotate #270
\translate-scaled #'(-4.2 . 2)
\line
{ \musicglyph #"flags.u7" }
}
}
hmm... now that I look at it again, the flag.u7 is really questionable.

There's two things that I'm not completely sold on. The half-note "d" seems a bit weird, and I think the initial "L" could be spruced up somehow -- it feels a bit "blocky".

I think you should be listed in both places; I certainly don't think you should removed from the Documentation list.

Later in the Spring, > perhaps. For clarity, the "authors" list is a reflection of what you have done so far, not what you hope to be doing in the future. On the basis of your work during the 2.12-to-2.14 period, I think you should be listed in both Documentation and Bug squad. Once 2.14 is out, we move all contributor names into "past contributor", and start the list again.

What I really don't like about it is the different slant of the L, > the l and the p)... Huh, that's a good one, kudos! I personally think the p is just a bit too large; IMHO it should fit to the same x-height as the neighbor letters. In smaller size, I also think that the blackness of L and p is extremely dominant in contrast to the other letters, but this is just from scaling of the PNG. Maybe a "real" markup implementation in Lily would perform better due to the scaled fonts. And I'm not too sure about the "Music typesetting for everyone". It's nicely integrated, and looks very good in a large image. But if the logo goes into the tagline, IMHO it should also look acceptable in a size where the staff lines are at about the same distance as for the default music staves. The "subscript tagline" has certainly less than 1.5 mm height then, and if it's removed, the lower serif of the L gets a bit too dominant for my taste, too. So I suppose we'd need this in two versions, for smaller and larger logos.

Mike, I've added you (and others - going back to end of 2009). I'll submit a patch shortly to Graham who will then push it - I don't have git push access. Regards and Happy New Year!
