[pinhole-discussion] wppd logo

2001-02-17 Thread Temi
James,
I like the logo but on my PC the center hole does not show clearly. It
seems to compete with the colors in the globe itself.Does anyone else
find this also. Maybe the globe could be lightened and the pinhole in
the center colored black and then it would show up better. Another
thought is that you might want to make the background transparent so
that the logo could be used in various places.

I just came up with a logo for World Pinhole Photography Day, you can
see it
at http://www.jameskellar.com/wppdlogo.jpg. What does every one think? I
just checked and world pinholephotographyday.com is open, but
wppd.com
has been taken. If I get the ok from enough folks I will register
worldpinholephotographyday.com.

 Hi all,

 Regarding the WPPD logo, how about using a Mollweide projection map,

Actually, I kind of like the Hammer projection better.

It has something more pinholy to me, I can't figure out why.  Perhaps
all that empty Pacific ocean space making up the center of the map...  But
I suppose that Jean will feel a bit shoved to the fringe with this map...

Hi all,

Regarding the WPPD logo, how about using a Mollweide projection map,
similar to the one found at:

http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt/gmt/doc/html/GMT_Docs/node99.html

to represent the world.  Just a thought.

Also, I second www.pinholeday.org for the url -- catchy, short,
collaborative.  In any case, this is a great movement.  Thanks all for
the inspiration and motivation to get my pinhole act together.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo and Money

2001-02-17 Thread James Kellar
Lets hold on a bit. I don't mind paying $13 for the first year, but before
we start getting ahead of yourselfs. Remember this might happen this year
and then fizzle out next year. How about if I take care of the first year,
and then we see what happens.

It's been a long time ago but, I did collect $8.00 from the membership when
it looked like we were going to have to pay for having a non advertized
discussion list. Thanks to Gregg Kemp who came up with the alturnitive that
we are all using now. BTW Thanks Greg. I then asked if we wanted to put this
and other future funds towards becoming a Contributing member to the Pinhole
Resorce. At that time I was hoping to collect between $50-$75 and I would
kick in the rest, but all I recivied was $4. To tell you the truth I had
forgotten about this until Guy suggested sending me money. The $12 is still
in my dresser. Let me know what  you all think.

I've been following this thread with interest and am willing to help
with money for the name registration as well.  I'm glad it seems that
April 29th seems to have been settled on as for some reason spring is
when my pinhole juices flow.  Once summer settles in I seem to gravitate
back to lenses.

 Just thought I'd mention that if you are looking to register a name, you may
 want to do it at www.domainsite.com.  I've registered a couple of sites there
 and the cost is only $13 per year ($100 for 10 years).  Let me know and I will
 kick in a few dollars to help you along.
 
 Additionally, directing the name to a specific IP is simply a matter of asking
 them.  If you've ever tried to work through the maze that some of the other
 places force you through, you'll appreciate it.

I thought of that, and it bothers me a bit. I will look around to see if I
can find that shows a diffrent part of the earth. Maybe we can have more
then one. BTW I got the image from the NASA web site. It is my understanding
that NASA does not copyright most of there images, but I have sent a message
to them just to make sure. I will let you know when I hear back from them.

 WWPPD (world wide pinhole photography day)

 or

 what happened to IPPD (International Pinhole Photography Day)

I like World Wide Pinhole Photography Day.  The WW clearly IMO speaks about
the universality of the event and also about that is happening in cyberspace
(WORLD WIDE  -web-).

As for James registering a domain, that can only help to the seriousness
of the event. As for the name, I don't think it necessarily has to be
WWW.exact_description_or_name_of_the_event_or_organization.COM , and
www.WWPPD.com doesn't really describe the event, except to us.  Something
simpler like www.PINHOLEDAY.com or perhaps www.pinholeday.ORG tells more.
The actual name of the event, in this case should be inside de web page.

A minor detail about the logo is that it depicts the Americas only.

If paying for a domain reg. is OK with James, it is OK with me.

[pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo suggestion

2001-02-17 Thread Colin Talcroft
Hi everyone,

Just a suggestion on the WPPD logo idea. I think the
pinhole kind of gets lost in the white space of the
clouds. I think the idea would be stronger if the
pinhole were set off from the clouds more clearly. I
have taken the liberty of doing so just to see how it
looks. You can see it at:

http://www.sonic.net/~talcroft/wppdlogo2.jpg

If anyone wants to use this version, feel free to take
it.

Colin
