[libreoffice-marketing] Libre Office logo designs
Dear Libre Office marketing team, in a blog post from David Nelson I read that Libre Office is looking for a new logo and marketing material. The moment I told this to my girlfriend she started Inkscape and produced the first logos that came to her mind. I think they are really applealing especially the last ones showing a globe of the world embraced by the L and O of Libre Office. It would be interesting to heare what you think about those first designs.

You should post a link to those designs, the list doesn't allow attachments.

Hi Anna, hi Fabian, Fabian Sturm schrieb: Dear Libre Office marketing team, in a blog post from David Nelson I read that Libre Office is looking for a new logo and marketing material. The moment I told this to my girlfriend she started Inkscape and produced the first logos that came to her mind. Great - please join our design mailing list too and join the team there. That's probably the best place for contributors with your skills. We are working on the LibreOffice icons at the moment, because they should be implemented in the upcoming version 3.3.0 The present logo (it's part of our "Initial Branding" that will be replaced by a "Community Branding" based on our community's contributions) is fixed until LibO 3.4 or LibO 3.5, but we start discussing this topic probably after the release of LibO 3.3.0. I think they are really applealing especially the last ones showing a globe of the world embraced by the L and O of Libre Office. It would be interesting to heare what you think about those first designs. Please upload them to the wiki where we already collected a number of ideas, so they won't be forgotten when we start working on the Community Design: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding/Ideas#Logo Welcome and best regards Bernhard -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Libre Office logo designs
Just a small question (and offer): when will we arrive at a point where decisions about the logo are made? I read somewhere that you want to form a group who takes care of the whole branding issue, and I'd like to be part of that team.

Hi Joey (and everybody interested in this topic)! Johannes Bausch schrieb: Just a small question (and offer): when will we arrive at a point where decisions about the logo are made? Any update to the logo will be part of the transition from the "Initial Branding Design" we need for our first release(s) and the "Community Branding Design" we plan to establish for LibreOffice 3.4 or 3.5. In my personal opinion this will probably be between Summer 2011 and Spring 2012 - but I don't know any official release roadmap for these versions. But we'll need this time to define and create our community based branding - starting with looking at our goals, defining how branding design can help to get there, creating artwork and spreading it at any place LibO is represented in public. I read somewhere that you want to form a group who takes care of the whole branding issue, and I'd like to be part of that team. That's great! We will not be able to start "real" work on this topic before the release of LibO 3.3, but after the release this will become our main task for the next months. Please join the design mailing list (des...@libreoffice.org), because branding related topics are worked on and co-ordinated there.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Libre Office logo designs
Hi :) Surely this would be best done within the existing Design Group rather than creating a new specialist group? Too many groups can create communications problems. It would be ideal if the Design Group had specific one-off tasks such as this along with ongoing work imo. It is a good time and worth joining for a while for such specific tasks. The name LibO misses the value of the meaning of "Libre". It sounds more like a library that linux-people generally ignore on the way to find the juicy stuff. It could be just me but LibreO is not really so much more hassle to type? Good luck and regards from Tom Davies :) From: Bernhard Dippold To: marketing@libreoffice.org Sent: Wed, 22 December, 2010 20:06:44 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Libre Office logo designs Hi Joey (and everybody interested in this topic)!

Hi Tom, * Tom Davies schrieb: Hi :) Surely this would be best done within the existing Design Group rather than creating a new specialist group? That's what I said: Please join the Design Group by subscribing to our mailing list. [ ...] It would be ideal if the Design Group had specific one-off tasks such as this along with ongoing work imo. It is a good time and worth joining for a while for such specific tasks. After the release of LibO 3.3 we will work on short- and long-term tasks and topics simultaneously. Just for the moment there is not enough time to work on anything else than the most pressing topics. The name LibO misses the value of the meaning of "Libre". It sounds more like a library that linux-people generally ignore on the way to find the juicy stuff. It could be just me but LibreO is not really so much more hassle to type? It still lacks the value of the meaning of "Office". ;-) LibO is just an internal acronym for LibreOffice. It's shorter to type and easier in speech. We already had this discussion on "LO", "LibO" and "LibreO" about two months ago. Back then it was decided to prefer "LibO", but not to market it in public, because "LibreOffice" still lacks public recognition.
